Unable to login using Ubuntu Users

[amitb2050]

Hi,

I installed package 'django-pam' using 'python setup.py install', the installation was successful. I added the entry in setting.py (fresh django 1.8.x installation) as below. After that I restarted django server and tried to login into http://admin url page. It was taking some time to reload but the LOGIN FAILED. Moreover, the Django superuser was unable to login into admin. I removed below entry from setting.py and the superuser was able to login. Please help me integrating this package.

setting.py:

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( 'dpam.backends.PAMBackend', ) PAM_IS_STAFF = True PAM_IS_SUPERUSER = True

Hello, could you provide us with a little more information? Are you able to do use the PAM service from the user that's running the Django app from the command line? pamtester may help you trouble shooting PAM issues.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

1] I tested the Ubuntu users with 'pamtester' and they are able to login successfully as shown below:

2] In setting.py, I add following changes to allow Linux user to login in /admin, but I end up with an error. Moreover, the Django user login also fails. If I comment these line and try login with Django user, it successfully login into dashboard

   AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = (
       'dpam.backends.PAMBackend',
   )
   PAM_IS_STAFF = True
   PAM_IS_SUPERUSER = False
