Failed to load LDAP module

[alpapan]

Hello

Having just updated to the both Ubuntu 20.04 I did a fresh install of Galaxy, (upgrading from 16.something). Using Python 3.6.11

I'm breaking my head around this for a few hours. For some reason I get Failed to load LDAP module (see below for error) even though I have installed python-ldap

I tried both conda install python-ldap whilst inside galaxy's environment (it installs ldap3-.2) and pip install ldap3-2.8.1 (after checking the github issues).

I first tried the 20.01 and then the dev branch (20.05 i believe). I tried checking if any of my old config files were invalid. Any pointers how to debug this and figure out would be most appreciated....

thank you alexie
