Turn off LDAP authentication

During some maintenance operations, such as upgrades, you may need to turn off LDAP authentication.

  1. Open the site-options.conf file, the master configuration file that controls your TeamForge site.
    • vi /opt/collabnet/teamforge-installer/16.3/conf/site-options.conf
    Note: vi is an example. Any *nix text editor will work.
  2. In the site-options.conf file, comment out these variables:
    USE_EXTERNAL_USER_AUTHENTICATION
    LOGIN_CONFIG_XML_FILE
    MINIMUM_PASSWORD_LENGTH
  3. Recreate the runtime environment.
    • ./install.sh -V -r -d /opt/collabnet/teamforge
  4. Review the variables you have changed, then save the site-options.conf file.
