Problem description: | |
In certain situations, such as db2start or when updating the database manager configuration file, authorization errors may not log useful diagnostic information from security plugins to the db2diag.log. The only message logged may be a generic error message, indicating that the operation failed. Example command line error: [db2inst1@pate1 ~]$ db2start SQL1366N A security plug-in "IBMLDAPauthclient" processing error occurred on the client. Reason code = "7". Example generic Message: 2021-05-26-11.30.22.930416-420 I2228E847 LEVEL: Warning PID : 21275 TID : 139856316467072 PROC : db2start INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 000 HOSTNAME: pate1 FUNCTION: DB2 UDB, base sys utilities, sqlestrt.C::main, probe:1763 MESSAGE : Error encountered during db2start execution DATA #1 : unsigned integer, 4 bytes 32 DATA #2 : unsigned integer, 4 bytes 0 DATA #3 : SQLCA, PD_DB2_TYPE_SQLCA, 136 bytes sqlcaid : SQLCA sqlcabc: 136 sqlcode: -1366 sqlerrml: 20 sqlerrmc: IBMLDAPauthclient 7 sqlerrp : SQLESTRT sqlerrd : (1) 0x805C0197 (2) 0x00000197 (3) 0x00000000 (4) 0x00000000 (5) 0x00000000 (6) 0x00000000 sqlwarn : (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) (11) sqlstate: | |

Comment | |
In certain situations, Db2 uses a process called "db2chkau" to invoke the security plugins for checking authentication and group membership. Prior to 11.5.7, db2chkau was not configured correctly to log to the Db2 diagnostic log. After upgrading to Db2 11.5.7 or later, additional diagnostic messages from the "db2chkau" process will be written, indicating the reason for a failure: 2021-05-26-12.01.19.530591-420 I4103E1134 LEVEL: Error PID : 14721 TID : 140056234297216 PROC : db2chkau INSTANCE: db2inst1 NODE : 000 HOSTNAME: pate1 FUNCTION: DB2 Common, Security Users and Groups, secLoadClientAuthPlugin, probe:21 DATA #1 : String, 87 bytes db2ldapReadConfig: can't open config file '/home/db2inst1/sqllib/cfg/IBMLDAPSecurity.ini' CALLSTCK: (Static functions may not be resolved correctly, as they are resolved to the nearest symbol) [0] 0x00007F616D226C12 /home/db2inst1/db2/INST/lib/libdb2osse.so.1 + 0x24BC12 [1] 0x00007F616D2279E7 ossLog + 0x77 [2] 0x00007F617575177E _Z23secLoadClientAuthPluginP19SEC_PLUGIN_HANDLE_TPcS1_i + 0x67E [3] 0x00007F617577B3E6 _Z23sqlexLoadClientPWPluginP9sqlf_kcfdPc + 0x206 [4] 0x00007F6175745C3D _Z24sqlex_init_client_secenvhhP5sqlcaPP19SEC_PLUGIN_HANDLE_TP9sq lf_kcfdP14db2UCinterface + 0xDD [5] 0x00007F6175755C18 _Z23sqlex_get_user_authinfohhhiP16SQLEX_AUTHINFO_TP5sqlca + 0x19B8 [6] 0x000000000040205D main + 0x46D [7] 0x00007F616C1F3555 __libc_start_main + 0xF5 [8] 0x000000000040239F db2chkau + 0x239F | |
