    Hello everyone,

    I'm running an instance of authentik with an LDAP Outpost managing the requests over the Jellyfin LDAP Authentication plugin.
    I entered all the values and all the tests can query my instance successfully aswell as return the correct user count for my user and admin filters.

    Now when I try to login with two different accounts called Admin & user the results differentiate.
    - The admin account processes the login
    - The user account returns a "failed username or password"

    Logs:
    Code:
    [15:16:12] [WRN] [29] Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin: User Manager could not find an user with such ldapUid, this may not be fatal
    System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
      at Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin.Authenticate(String username, String password)
    [16:14:12] [WRN] [29] Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin: User Manager could not find an user with such ldapUsername, this may not be fatal
    System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
      at Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin.Authenticate(String username, String password)
    [16:14:14] [ERR] [29] Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin: Failed to Connect or Bind to server as user cn=user,ou=users,dc=replaced,dc=de
    LdapException: Invalid Credentials (49) Invalid Credentials
    LdapException: Matched DN:
    [16:14:14] [INF] [29] Jellyfin.Server.Implementations.Users.UserManager: Authentication request for user has been denied (IP: 78.255.255.255).
    [16:14:14] [ERR] [29] Jellyfin.Api.Middleware.ExceptionMiddleware: Error processing request: Invalid username or password entered. URL POST /Users/authenticatebyname.

    So my question is now: Are there any additional ways that I can try to troubleshoot my error and why the heck the login only works with this account :D

    Hi, I am facing the same issue. Except for one user, all of my other users are working perfectly fine.
    Code:
    [WRN] User Manager could not find an user with such ldapUsername, this may not be fatal System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Jellyfin.Plugin.LDAP_Auth.LdapAuthenticationProviderPlugin.Authenticate(String username, String password)
    Did you ever fix this, if yes how?

    What does Authentik say? Are there any failed logins there? It looks to me like your jellyfin server is unable to find a user with the username "user"
