Unhealthy/Restaring Containers & Change Log not working after LDAP implementation

[alna-laurentiu]

Hallo,
after a lot of testing and config adaptation i manage to implement LDAP. So far LDAP works as expected but i notice that two containers are not healthy anymore, NETBOX is working, the only thing i notice was that the "change log" is not showing changes since the LDAP implementation.

Netbox-docker (4.1.9) runs on Almalinux 9.5, Docker 27.4.1 and DockerCompose 2.32.1

My LDAP configuration steps:

Adjusted configration.py:

REMOTE_AUTH_ENABLED = True
REMOTE_AUTH_BACKEND = 'netbox.authentication.LDAPBackend'

Adjusted docker-compose.override.yaml:

services:
  netbox:
    ports:
    - 8000:8080
    environment:
      AUTH_LDAP_SERVER_URI: "ldaps://xxxxxx"
      AUTH_LDAP_BIND_DN: "CN=app_netbox,OU=APP,OU=OP,DC=xx,DC=xx"
      AUTH_LDAP_BIND_PASSWORD: "secretpassword"
      AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH_BASEDN: "DC=xx,DC=xx"
      AUTH_LDAP_GROUP_SEARCH_BASEDN: "OU=OP,DC=xx,DC=xx"
      AUTH_LDAP_REQUIRE_GROUP_DN: "CN=grp_sec_netbox_access,OU=SEC,OU=OP,DC=xx,DC=xx"
      AUTH_LDAP_IS_ADMIN_DN: "CN=grp_sec_netbox_admin,OU=SEC,OU=OP,DC=xx,DC=xx"
      AUTH_LDAP_IS_SUPERUSER_DN: "CN=grp_sec_netbox_admin,OU=SEC,OU=OP,DC=xx,DC=xx"
      AUTH_LDAP_USER_SEARCH_ATTR: "userPrincipalName"
      LDAP_IGNORE_CERT_ERRORS: "true"

Last documented change log was over a month ago since then we added a lot of stuff and i tested today by adding a device and remove it again and nothing chnaged.

Any help and input is appreciated.
Thank you
