Description

When the broker which uses LDAP for authentication is upgraded from 5.5.x to 5.7.x,the roles and users are correctly ported to the  upgraded broker, but the authentication  fails.

Resolution

This issue seems to have been a side effect of some of the LDAP related issues we fixed in 5.7.
In this case, once we re-enter the value for "LDAP Connect Timeout (milliseconds)" on the Authentication page and press "save" the LDAP auth started working.

Issue/Introduction

Workaround to get the LDAP authentication working after the broker upgrade.
