Cloning a repository over HTTPS with LDAP credentials causes a HTTP 401 Access denied
Summary
Cloning a repository over HTTPS with LDAP credentials prints the error 401 HTTP Basic: Access denied
.
Steps to reproduce
- Enable LDAP and add a server
- Setup a user with username != LDAP login (this is important)
- Create a private repository (so cloning requires credentials)
- Try to clone the repo over https using LDAP credentials
- Error: 401
HTTP Basic: Access denied
What is the current bug behavior?
Gitlab returns a HTTP 401.
What is the expected correct behavior?
The repository should be cloned.
Possible fixes
/lib/gitlab/auth.rb, line 72
The problem is that Gitlab::Auth.find_with_user_password(login, password)
correctly verifies the provided credentials, but fails to return an actual user. A merge request will be provided.
