test.sh error

Hi,

I see you're working on the script right now, so I decided to share the issue.

I'm trying to set up the script to authenticate against postfixadmin user DB

I set db settings right in the code as well as password query. Other queries are disabled.

The wierd thing is that I see this in ejabberd logs:

2016-12-19 17:10:20.013 [critical] <0.909.0>@extauth:loop:142 extauth script has exitted abruptly with reason 'normal'
2016-12-19 17:10:20.022 [critical] <0.910.0>@extauth:loop:142 extauth script has exitted abruptly with reason 'normal'
2016-12-19 17:10:20.034 [critical] <0.911.0>@extauth:loop:142 extauth script has exitted abruptly with reason 'normal'

When I try to test it with test.sh I see this:

Python version is: Python 2.7.12
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 3, in <module>
struct.error: unpack requires a string argument of length 4
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 6, in <module>
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

Versions:
ejabberd 16.01-2
Ubuntu 16.04
python 2.7.12

Do you think you could help me? Thanks in advance.

Mike

I have no idea what could be causing this. I have only very basic knowledge of Python and didn’t write the respective code myself.

As far as my research can tell, struct.unpack('>h', input_length) should always expect 2 bytes, so it is a mystery to me why in your case it expects 4.

Are you running the script on a normal 64bit x86 processor? Are you sure that the script is executed with Python 2 (run /usr/bin/python --version)?

[mikevmk]

Yes to both

Well, ok, thank you anyway, will try to investigate here

Ubuntu has an apparmor policy that does not allow extauth scripts. In /etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.ejabberdctl, add:

/path/to/your/auth_mysql.py Ux,
