*Edge for Private Cloud v4.19.01*

## Log file location

OpenLDAP log files are contained in the directory `/opt/apigee/var/log`. These files can be
periodically archived and removed in order to ensure that they do not take up excessive disk
space. Information on maintaining, archiving and removing OpenLDAP logs can be found in Section
19.2 of the OpenLDAP manual at [http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/maintenance.html](https://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/maintenance.html).

## Manually set a user's password

User's can request a new Edge password in the Edge UI. The user then receives an email with
information about setting a password. However, if your SMTP server is down, or the user cannot
receive an email for any reason, you can manually set the user's password by using OpenLDAP
commands.

To set a user's password:

1. Use `ldapsearch` to download user information:

   ```
   ldapsearch -w ldapAdminPWord -D "cn=manager,dc=apigee,dc=com" -b "dc=apigee,dc=com" -LLL -h LDAP_IP -p 10389 > ldap.txt
   ```
2. Search the ldap.txt file for the user's email address. You should see a block in the form:

   ```
   dn: uid=29383a67-9279-4aa8-a75b-cfbf901578fc,ou=users,ou=global,dc=apigee,dc=com
   mail: foo@bar.com
   userPassword:: e1NTSEF9a01UUDdSd01BYXRuUURXdXN5OWNPRzBEWWlYZFBRTm14MHlNVWc9PQ==
   uid: 29383a67-9279-4aa8-a75b-cfbf901578fc
   ```
3. Use `ldappasswd` to set the user's password based on the user's uid:

   ```
   ldappasswd -h LDAP_IP -p 10389 -D "cn=manager,dc=apigee,dc=com" -W -s newPassWord \
     "uid=29383a67-9279-4aa8-a75b-cfbf901578fc,ou=users,ou=global,dc=apigee,dc=com"
   ```

   You are prompted for the OpenLDAP admin password.

The user can now log in by using ***newPassWord***.

## Manually set OpenLDAP system password

[Resetting Edge passwords](https://docs.apigee.com/private-cloud/v4.19.01/resetting-passwords) describes how to change the
OpenLDAP system password but requires that you know the existing password. If you have lost that
password, you can use the following procedure to reset it.

1. Use `slappasswd` to create the SSHA encrypted password for a new password:

   ```
   slappasswd -h {SSHA} -s newPassWord
   ```

   This command returns a string in the form:

   ```
   {SSHA}+DOup9d6l+czfWzkIvajwYPArjPurhS6
   ```
2. Open the `/opt/apigee/data/apigee-openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase={2}bdb.ldif` file in an editor:

   ```
   vi /opt/apigee/data/apigee-openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase={2}bdb.ldif
   ```
3. Find the line in the form:

   ```
   olcRootPW:: OldPasswordString
   ```
4. Replace <var translate="no">OldPasswordString</var> with the string returned from `slappasswd`. If there are 2 colons after `olcRootPw`, remove one and ensure there is a space after the colon:

   ```
   olcRootPW: {SSHA}RGon+bLCe+Sk+HyHholFBj8ONQfabrhw
   ```
5. Restart OpenLDAP:

   ```
   /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-openldap restart
   ```
6. Check using `ldapsearch` if your new password works:

   ```
   ldapsearch -W -D "cn=manager,dc=apigee,dc=com" -b "dc=apigee,dc=com" -LLL -h LDAP_IP -p 10389
   ```

   You are prompted for the OpenLDAP admin password.
7. Repeat these steps on any other OpenLDAP servers that are being used for replication.
8. Update the Management Server to use the new password:

   ```
   /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-management-server store_ldap_credentials -p newPassWord
   ```

## Manually set Edge admin password

[Resetting Edge Passwords](https://docs.apigee.com/private-cloud/v4.19.01/resetting-passwords) describes how to change the
Edge system password but requires that you know the existing password. If you have lost the Edge
system password, you can use the following procedure to reset it.

1. On the UI node, stop the Edge UI:

   ```
   /opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service edge-ui stop
   ```
2. Use `ldappasswd` to set the Edge sys admin password:

   ```
   ldappasswd -h localhost -p 10389 -D "cn=manager,dc=apigee,dc=com" -W -s newPassWord \
     "uid=admin,ou=users,ou=global,dc=apigee,dc=com"
   ```

   You are prompted for the OpenLDAP admin password.
3. Update the config file that you used to install the Edge UI with the new Edge system password:

   ```
   APIGEE_ADMINPW=newPassWord
   ```
4. Configure and restart the Edge UI:

   ```
   /opt/apigee/apigee-setup/bin/setup.sh -p ui -f configFile
   ```
5. **(Only if TLS is enabled on the UI)** Re-enable TLS on the Edge UI as described in [Configuring TLS for the management
   UI](https://docs.apigee.com/private-cloud/v4.19.01/configuring-ssl-management-ui).

## Delete SLAPD lock file

If you get an error when trying to start OpenLDAP that the `slapd.pid` lock file
exists, you can delete the file.

The file is located in `/opt/apigee/apigee-openldap/var/run/slapd.pid`. Delete the
file and try to restart OpenLDAP:

```
/opt/apigee/apigee-service/bin/apigee-service apigee-openldap restart
```

If OpenLDAP does not start, try starting it in debug mode and check for errors:

```
slapd -h ldap://:10389/ -u apigee -d 255 -F /opt/apigee/data/apigee-openldap/slapd.d
```

Errors may point to resource issues, memory, or CPU utilization issues.

## Troubleshooting OpenLDAP replication
problems

If your installation uses multiple OpenLDAP servers, you can check the replication settings to
ensure that they servers are functioning properly.

1. Ensure that `ldapsearch` returns data from each OpenLDAP server:

   ```
   ldapsearch -W -D "cn=manager,dc=apigee,dc=com" -b "dc=apigee,dc=com" -LLL -h LDAP_IP -p 10389
   ```

   You are prompted for the OpenLDAP admin password.
2. Check the replication configuration by examining the `/opt/apigee/conf/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase={2}bdb.ldif` file.
3. Make sure the system password is the same on each OpenLDAP server.
4. Check iptables and tcp wrapper settings.
