Error after setting NTLM authentication in iAPP

I am using the f5.microsoft_exchange_2010_2013_cas.v1.5.0 iAPP template, primarily for Outlook anywhere with auto discover, and after setting up the option for NTLM I get the following error after clicking finished:

 

script did not successfully complete: (list element in quotes followed by "-account-name" instead of space while executing "string map $map_array($item) $access_form" (procedure "iapp_apm_config" line 68) invoked from within "iapp_apm_config apm_map" invoked from within "if { $new_apm } { set aaa_pool [subst $apm_aaa($new_aaa_pool)] set pre_proc_map " [expr { $is_exchange_2010 ? "ses..." line:2561)

 

Does anyone know how to resolve this error?

 

Thanks,

 

  • Specifically, what is the name of the NTLM machine account object you are selecting in the iApp?

    Hi Bryan, can you tell me which version of BIG-IP you are running on, as well as which options you chose when deploying the iApp?

     

    thanks

      The object name is f5 machine account and the account name is f5pair

      Aha! Generally, BIG-IP won't let you create objects with spaces or special characters in the name, however the NTLM machine account seems to not have any name validation. I just tested and was able to create accounts with all kinds of forbidden characters in the name. Some of them work with the iApp, but most don't. For now, you should be able to work around this by using a machine account name with only alphanumeric characters and underscores. We will get the deployment guide updated with this information and file a bug against the behavior. Thanks for bringing it to our attention!
