Ldap Login Role Problem Kibana

We recently launched the Elastic 7.17.19 version, which is self-signed certificate and secure, with three nodes.

We make the LDAP configuration, and then we successfully log in via LDAP.

I defined ldap_kibanauser and ldap_superuser roles to access the Kibana interface with the elastic admin user. I added the cn value that I logged into the mappings rule value section for two user roles. Kibana works on a one node.

When I add token providers to the kibana.yml , I log in successfully, but sometimes I get a warning that the username or password is incorrect and I cannot log in. I am sure that the username and password are correct.

If I do not add the token provider to the kibana.yml file , I can log in but I cannot see the content of the index on discover tab and when I enter the index management it log out me.

How should I configure my configurations and what could be the reason for this problem?

Hello,

Do you have a paid license (platinum or enterprise) or are you using it with the trial license?

If you have a license you should contact support, if you are using the trial license please share the configuration of your kibana.yml file and also your elasticsearch.yml file, redact the sensitive information.

Hi,

I have a trial license.I share the content you want.

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================
#
# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
#       Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
#       understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.
#
# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.
#
# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html
#
# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:
#
cluster.name: new-elk

# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for the node:
#
node.name: node-1
#
# Add custom attributes to the node:
#
#node.attr.rack: r1
#
# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#
path.data: /elk
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: /var/log/elasticsearch
#
# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------
#
# Lock the memory on startup:
#
bootstrap.memory_lock: false
#
# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available
# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this
# limit.
#
# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.
#
# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------
#
# By default Elasticsearch is only accessible on localhost. Set a different
# address here to expose this node on the network:
#
network.host: XXXXX
#
# By default Elasticsearch listens for HTTP traffic on the first free port it
# finds starting at 9200. Set a specific HTTP port here:
#
http.port: 9200
#
# For more information, consult the network module documentation.
#
# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------
#
# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when this node is started:
# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]
#
discovery.seed_hosts: ["XXXXXXX", "XXXXXXX", "XXXXXXX"]
#
# Bootstrap the cluster using an initial set of master-eligible nodes:
#
cluster.initial_master_nodes: ["node-1", "node-2", "node-3"]
#
# For more information, consult the discovery and cluster formation module documentation.
