Banner 6 to 7 - Luminis and self-service

We recently ugpraded from Banner 6 to 7, and it went smoothly.

Imported the following files:

sso_oclass_sunone.ldif
sso_root_sunone.ldif
sso_parms.ldif
sso_parms_sserv.ldif

Which created o=SCTSSOapplications, and some containers and values underneath.

Changed the following to match our self-service server and paths:

cn=SSBServerName,o=sserv,o=config,o=Banner,o=SCTSSOapplications
cn=DADNormal,o=sserv,o=config,o=Banner,o=SCTSSOapplications
cn=HTTPPrefixServer,o=sserv,o=config,o=Banner,o=SCTSSOapplications
cn=CSSURL,o=sserv,o=config,o=Banner,o=SCTSSOapplications

Everything else I left default. We didn't choose to do SSO to INB at this time, so I left all that alone.

After the self-service admin changed the webtailor settings, and some pieces in Banner 7 (see the midtier guide), I did:

cptool sync password sctssb
and then in a browser executed https://mysite.edu/cp/ip/config?sys=sctssb

And single-sign on worked.

Had a few issues with some banner and webtailor values being incorrect, so had to issue the config?sys=sctssb link a few times to refresh, but overall the process went without error.

The Banner 7 event process did not change at all, so the LMB/LMG setup did not require any changes.

Debugging process

Hi,

I'm new to luminis and we are also in the process of upgrading to banner7 with stock config. Could you describe the steps you took when you had problems with the https://mysite.edu/cp/ip/config?sys=sctssb? We already made changes to banner and ldap according to the middle tier guide but I am not having any luck executing that URL and I just don't know enough about the system. Any info you have would be really helpful.

Thanks

Luminis SSO to SSB

Hi Jason,

I am having a problem runing ldapmodify on sso_parms_sserv.ldif and was wondering if you can help.

My Name is Nour Belkeir from Morehouse College. We are in the testing fase on luminis 3.3 and banner 7. the error i am getting is:

add description:

Looking in my ldap browser I don't see any of the above and I have a snapshot if you are interested to see it.

I appreciate all your help.

This is my email: nbelkeir@morehouse.edu
