Description of my issue
Hi Everyone, I hope you’re having a fantastic day
After installing Synapse, I am unable to login as an existing user or as a new testuser I created. Here is an excerpt from the log showing that the user does not exist in the matrix database.

What else can I look at to check for the problem? It seems that synapse is not checking the ldap user database.
Thanks

I just tried uninstalling the app, removing the /home/yunohost.app/matrix-synapse directory and reinstalling synapse.
Here is the install log.

Following the guide here GitHub - matrix-org/matrix-synapse-ldap3: An LDAP3 auth provider for Synapse I adjusted the logging level for ldap. Here is an excerpt of an attempted login.

Looks like the LDAP auth provider is not connecting properly. invalidDNSyntax
