Environment

  • Python version: 3.5.3
  • NetBox version: 2.6.8

Hello!

I'm a new Netbox user and just installed netbox 2.6.8. Everything seems to work except 1 thing:
When I go to /user/password/ I get the following error:

There was a problem with your request. Please contact an administrator.

The complete exception is provided below:

<class 'AttributeError'>

'User' object has no attribute 'ldap_username'
If further assistance is required, please post to the NetBox mailing list.

Does anyone know what could cause this?

Cheers!
Niels

Just gotta replace in netbox/users/views.py

+ if getattr(request.user, 'ldap_username', None):
