Error connection for graylog to local ldap server

Description of your problem

Cant connect to my lap server.

Error Message

  • An error occurred while attempting to connect to server 192.168.1.4:636: IOException(LDAPException(resultCode=91 (connect error), errorMessage=‘An error occurred while attempting to establish a connection to server /192.168.1.4:636: SSLHandshakeException(PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target), ldapSDKVersion=5.1.1, revision=580fabe31b0752099ccd9a835fe7da96e8251e28’))

Probably you do not use valid certificate. If you you your own CA, or self-signed cert, you need to import to graylog trust store.

You didn’t post version of graylog, but from graylog 4.0 it’s neccessary to use valid cert, check this:
https://docs.graylog.org/en/4.1/pages/upgrade/graylog-4.0.html#fixing-certificate-validation-for-ldap-servers-used-for-authentication

Please also post your configuration in Authentication section.
