Description

When I attempt to log in to a published Web service as an LDAP user, my client application displays: Invalid login attempt in domain "composite".
 
  (1)    Published a resource as a TIBCO Data Virtualization web service.
  (2)    Configured the web service to use Basic authentication.
  (3)    Created an LDAP domain  "myldapdomain".
  (4)    Added LDAP groups to which the user  belongs to the domain.
  (5)    Opened my client application (Postman) and attempted to access the URL for the published web service by entering my LDAP user name "jean":
 
           URL: http://redwood:9400/json/Marketing/list_projects?'2017'
           Username : jean
           Password : ...
           Type : Basic Auth
           Method : HTTP GET

The client displayed the following error:
         401 Unauthorized
         Invalid login attempt in domain "composite"
 

Issue/Introduction

When logging in to a published Web service as an LDAP user, CIS displays: Invalid login attempt in domain "composite"

Resolution

When accessing a TIBCO Data Virtualization Webservice as non-composite user, you need to enter the user name using the syntax <user>@<domain>. In this case,  the user name would be jean@myldapdomain.

Below is an example of logging in to TIBCO Data Virtualization from a client application (Postman) as an LDAP user.
