I've installed sympa from source following the instructions on
the
website. I use systemd on my server and I have all service
files in
place to start sympa and wwsympa. All that remains now is to
get
LDAP
working for this to be a success. So, I created
'$SYSCONFDIR/auth.conf'
with the same details that work on my old sympa server and it
fails
without even a mention in the logs.

I have configured logs as per instruction in the documentation.
It
seems as if the '$SYSCONFDIR/auth.conf' file is ignored
entirely.
How
can I change logging such that I can see more information in
the
log
file?

What is the value of SYSCONFDIR? It is defined in
$MODULEDIR/Sympa/Constants.pm.

Hi Soji,

The value there is '/usr/local/etc'

I configured Sympa with the following parameters './configure --
enable-
fhs --prefix=/usr/local --with-confdir=/etc/sympa --without-initdir
--
with-unitsdir=/lib/systemd/system'.

And settings in '/etc/sympa/sympa.conf' seem to be honored.

Does this mean I should put my auth.conf in '/usr/local/etc'?

My Sympa installation will be serving one domain only. That's why I
thought that 'auth.conf' in SYSCONFDIR should be fine.

Yes, auth.conf should be placed in SYSCONFDIR, i.e. /usr/local/etc
with your configurataion.

I'll try that. Perhaps I should file a bug report? As it's unclear to
me why I would have to put the file there while I expect the path to be
the same as that of 'sympa.conf'.



Hello Fred,

which operating system/distribution do you use and what is the location of
your sympa.conf?

Regards
Racke
