Wso2 integration with active directory on plain ldap port 389 - amazon-web-services

Question

We are trying to integrate WSO2 identity server with AWS Microsoft AD on plain ldap port 389. We have assigned the users login role to dashboard. Users are able to login to dashboard but not able to change password. In the logs it says "Connection to Active Directory is on plain LDAP port and password change related activities will fail". We have tried a lot but LDAPS is not working on AWS Active Directory. We have used HAPROXY(SSL enabled) as frontend of WSO2 Identity server which redirects to plain ldap port 389. While configuring WSO2 identity server we specify the HAPROXY URL with SSL enabled, still the password change is not happening.
Is there a way to connect WSO2 Identity server on plain ldap port 389 so users can login and change their passwords?
Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Attached is the stack trace when a AD user tries to change password from Wso2 IS:

Answer 1

This is due to a security measure in Microsoft AD. Not in WSO2 Identity Server side. Microsoft AD does not allow to modify password in plain LDAP. Since this is a issue in AD, having a SSL connection between IS and HA Proxy does not resolve the issue. You have to have an SSL connection between HA Proxy and AD as well.
