Debug Login URL

When using external authentication, such as LDAP, Active Directory or SAML 2.0, even a small mistake in authentication configurations in either Cloudera Machine Learning or the Identity Provider could potentially block all users from logging in.

Cloudera Machine Learning provides an optional fallback debug login URL for site administrators to log in against the local database with their username/password created during the signup process before changing the external authentication method. The debug login URL is http://cml-workspace-domain.com/login?debug=1 . If you do not remember the original password, you can reset it by going directly to http://cml-workspace-domain.com/forgot-password. When configured to use external authentication, the link to the forgot password page is disabled on the login page for security reasons.

Disabling the Debug Login Route

Optionally, the debug login route can be disabled to prevent users from accessing Cloudera Machine Learning via local database when using external authentication. In case of external authentication failures, when the debug login route is disabled, root access to the master host is required to re-enable the debug login route.
