Hi!

@xx2new : As the error says your users.json file doesn't seem to be a valid JSON file (Error: Invalid arguments: /tmp/users.json: Unexpected token [ in JSON at position 119)

Hi @maxime-beguin, I had the same error in my server.conf. I solved it by putting the server config into an array :

[
  {
  "port": 3004,
  "userLoginAttribute": "cn",
  "searchBase": "dc=test",
  "searchFilter": "(&(objectclass=person)(cn={{username}}))"
  }
]

It seems to do the trick :

LDAP server listening on port 3004

but I'm not sure if it's the good fix.
