Error description

  • A Teradata database is configured to use an LDAP source for
    authentication.  The database is configured as a DQM data
    source, and the jdbc connection property "LOGMECH=LDAP" is
    defined in the datasource properties. In order to let users sign
    in with their own LDAP credentials, no signon is defined.  When
    a report is run against this datasource, the user is not
    prompted for credentials and an error is thrown:  XQE-DS-0006
    Unable to logon to the data source.[Teradata JDBC Driver]
    [TeraJDBC 14.10.00.17] [Error 1046] [SQLState HY000]
    Authentication Mechanism requires a logdata parameter.
