LDAP refuses connection when using pip to install JupyterHub and LDAP Authenticator

[z3ky]

Bug description

Ldap Authenticator does not connect to Active Directory when JupyterHub and LDAP Authenticator have been installed using pip. The connection to LDAP and the user authentication work when JupyterHub and LDAP Authenticator have been installed using conda.

Expected behaviour

Connection to LDAP should work independently of the installation method.

Actual behaviour

LDAP server refuses the connection when pip has been used

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/ldap3/core/tls.py", line 280, in start_tls
        return self._start_tls(connection)
      File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/ldap3/core/tls.py", line 289, in _start_tls
        raise start_tls_exception_factory(e)(connection.last_error)
    ldap3.core.exceptions.LDAPStartTLSError: wrap socket error: [Errno 104] Connection reset by peer

How to reproduce

1. pip install jupyterhub jupyterhub-ldapauthenticator configurable-http-proxy
2. configure hub to connect to LDAP:

c.JupyterHub.authenticator_class = 'ldapauthenticator.LDAPAuthenticator'
c.LDAPAuthenticator.server_address = 
c.LDAPAuthenticator.lookup_dn = True
c.LDAPAuthenticator.user_search_base = 
c.LDAPAuthenticator.user_attribute = 'sAMAccountName'
c.LDAPAuthenticator.lookup_dn_user_dn_attribute = 'cn'
c.LDAPAuthenticator.lookup_dn_search_filter = '({login_attr}={login})'
c.LDAPAuthenticator.use_ssl = False
c.LDAPAuthenticator.lookup_dn_search_user = 
c.LDAPAuthenticator.lookup_dn_search_password = 

3. run jupyterhub
4. try to login

I have the same issue but i used the jupyterhub bootstrap installation method on ubuntu 20.04

[z3ky]

Try to install the hub inside a conda environment. This works for me, no matter whether I use pip or conda to install the hub.
