spring.data.ldap with multiple spring.ldap.urls in application.properties


We use an LdapRepository<MyUser> within a Spring Boot project. The repo is auto-generated with a few additional query methods. We now have a second Active Directory domain server, and would like to add that to our Spring configuration. Before the .properties file looked like this:

spring.ldap.base=cn=Users,dc=company,dc=local
spring.ldap.password=really_save_password
spring.ldap.username=ldapuser@company.local
spring.ldap.urls=ldap://172.16.36.82:389

So I changed the last line to:

spring.ldap.urls=ldap://172.16.36.80:389 ldap://172.16.36.82:389

Because from other Stackoverflow questions I understood that multiple urls should be supplied with separating spaces.

But using userRepo.findAll() (or any query method) then leads to an exception:

It does work when I use just the second domain server, so either server works when used by its own in the .properties file.

What am I doing wrong?


Solution

  • If you want to use multiple ldap urls, you must declare them as a string array according to official spring-ldap document:

    It is possible to configure multiple alternate LDAP servers using the urls property. In this case, supply all server urls in a String array to the urls property.

    In your case try:

    spring.ldap.urls=ldap://172.16.36.80:389,ldap://172.16.36.82:389
