When following the standard procedure for installing LDAP, MongoDB and Sametime V12. You may discover that the Sametime database user does not have enough rights. The procedure tells us that the following command for creating an user and roles should be enough: db.createUser({user: "sametimeUser", pwd: "sametime", roles:[{role:"readWrite", db:"chatlogging"},{ role:"readWrite", db:"mobileOffline"},{ role:"readWrite", db:"meeting"},{role:"dbAdmin", db:"meeting"},{role:"userAdminAnyDatabase", db:"admin"}]})
Because there was no warning or error at this point we finished the installtion and started Sametime V12, I discovered that we couldn’t login into Sametime. Even when LDAP works correctly and tells us “BIND SUCCESSFULL” in the Sametime Community log.
