The configured context name here in this case is OU=Domain Users,DC=nc,DC=com while it supposed to be OU=Domain Users,DC=nc,DC=chapelhill,DC=com
Resolution
To resolve, update the TIBCO Spotfire Server's LDAP configuration with the correct context names and restart the Spotfire Server service. Below are the instructions:
- Open the TIBCO Spotfire Server configuration tool (see Opening the configuration tool): Login to uiconfig.bat file (uiconfig.sh on Linux) which is located in the <Installation dir>\tomcat\spotfire-bin directory OR search for TIBCO Spotfire Server Configuration in Windows for the desired version
- Open the configuration, navigate to "User Directory: LDAP" and update the context name as seen in below screenshot:
- Save the configuration back to the database.
- Restart the Spotfire Server service.
Issue/Introduction
This article explains why "Error communicating with LDAP directory, refreshing LDAP context and retrying javax.naming.CommunicationException: nc.com:389" is seen in server.log when attempting to login into the TIBCO Spotfire Server web interface.
