Hmm, SPNEGO not playing nicely THIS TIME

So I'm seeing a blank screen where I should be seeing a BPM Process Portal, and am seeing this in the AppCluster logs: -

Now last time I saw this, the two boxes ( BPM on Linux and Active Directory on Windows ) were out-of-sync.

This time, Windows says this: -


and Linux says this: -

date

Wed 25 Apr 14:18:31 BST 2018

which is pretty close.

However, given that this all worked before I suspended/reawakened my VMs, I restart the AppCluster.

Alas, this made no difference.

So I then rebooted the Windows VM …

Alas, this made no difference.

So I then rebooted the Linux VM …

And then restarted the Deployment Environment….

But still this …

So, rather than trialling and erring, I switched on some debugging, via these two JVM Custom Properties: -

com.ibm.security.jgss.debug = all
com.ibm.security.krb5.Krb5Debug = all

for the AppCluster JVM, and saw this: -

I dug around and around and around, and then found this: -


which said, in part: -

…
The password used when generating the keytab file with ktpass does not match the password assigned to the service account. When the password changes you should regenerate and redistribute the keys., even if it is reset to the same password.

In addition, the ktpass tool might generate a keytab file with a non-matching password as in the following cases:
• If the password entered to ktpass matches the password for the service account, then the produced keytab file does work.
• If the password entered to ktpass does not match the password for the service account, and is less than 7 characters in length, ktpass stops and does not produce a keytab file.
• If the password entered to ktpass does not match the password for the service account, and is greater than 6 characters in length, ktpass does not stop. Instead, it produces a keytab file containing an invalid key. Use of this key to decrypt a SPNEGO token produces the checksum error previously listed.

Use a non-null password for the service account, and then use that password when invoking ktpass.
…

which reminded me of this post FROM MY OWN DARN BLOG: -


where I wrote about how using ktpass with the WRONG password had broken my WAS -> LDAP bind account.

Which made me think ….

So I regenerated the keytab WITH THE RIGHT PASSWORD: -

ktpass -out bpm857.keytab -princ HTTP/bpm857.uk.ibm.com@UK -mapUser UK\bpmbind -mapOp set -pass Qp455w0rd -ptype KRB5_NT_PRINCIPAL

and then placed the new keytab back into WAS: -

as referenced in the krb5.conf file: -

cat /opt/ibm/WebSphere/AppServer/java/jre/lib/security/krb5.conf

[libdefaults]
default_realm = UK.IBM.COM
default_keytab_name = FILE:/home/wasadmin/bpm857.keytab
default_tkt_enctypes = des3-cbc-sha1
default_tgs_enctypes = des3-cbc-sha1
forwardable  = true
renewable  = true
noaddresses = true
clockskew  = 300
[realms]
UK.IBM.COM = {
kdc = ad2012.uk.ibm.com.com:88
default_domain = uk.ibm.com
}
[domain_realm]
.uk.ibm.com = UK.IBM.COM

So that was fun.

In solving one problem, I caused another.

But I learned yet more about the way that SPNEGO works, and how to debug it when things go wrong  ( cough ).

As ever, every day is a school day.

Visual Studio Code - Wow 🙀

Why did I not know that I can merely hit [cmd] [p]  to bring up a search box allowing me to search my project e.g. a repo cloned from GitHub...
