GitLab 6.0 LDAP Authentication Problem

Created by: jestillore

I followed the documentation to enable LDAP authentication. Here's my gitlab.yml

ldap:
    enabled: true
    host: 'servername.ourdomain.com'
    base: 'ou=Estudyante,ou=Chiko,dc=ourdomain,dc=com'
    port: 389
    uid: 'uid'
    method: 'plain' # "ssl" or "plain"
    bind_dn: 'cn=admin,dc=ourdomain,dc=com'
    password: 'p@ssw0rd'
    allow_username_or_email_login: true
sudo -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production

command output show

but when I tried to authenticate to GitLab using an LDAP account, it always prompts that the Username and Password is invalid. I tried tcpdump to check that an LDAP request is sent but tcpdump logs nothing which I suspect that my GitLab server is not communicating to my LDAP Server. I'm sure that my LDAP is working for I used same configuration with Redmine and it works.
