Hi.
I’m installing Couchbase on Ubuntu 16.04 on a cluster I have access to using an LDAP account.
During the installation (apt-get install couchbase-server-community) I got the following error:
Error: useradd command has been disabled because this system is connected to an LDAP server.
I googled the error, and weirdly enough, the error has never been reported before. Only returned official page was: Couchbase SDKs, but it doesn’t seem to be relevant.
How to solve/get around this error? the current cluster I have access to is my only option to run Couchbase.
