Please access GitLab from a web browser to update your password.` for a LDAP GitLab account on a self-hosted instance (since GitLab Community Edition 13.12.2). The account has a password expiration in the past (2014-07-24; probably from when it wasn't an LDAP account yet) in GitLab's database (`users.password_expires_at`). Setting `password_expires_at` to `NULL` via gitlab-psql fixed it. #### Results of GitLab environment info <!-- Input any relevant GitLab environment information if needed. --> <details> <summary>Expand for output related to GitLab environment info</summary> <pre> System information System: Current User: git Using RVM: no Ruby Version: 2.7.2p137 Gem Version: 3.1.4 Bundler Version:2.1.4 Rake Version: 13.0.3 Redis Version: 6.0.12 Git Version: 2.31.1 Sidekiq Version:5.2.9 Go Version: unknown GitLab information Version: 13.12.2 Revision: d98457affdf Directory: /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-rails DB Adapter: PostgreSQL DB Version: 12.6 URL: https://*snip* HTTP Clone URL: https://*snip*/some-group/some-project.git SSH Clone URL: git@*snip*:some-group/some-project.git Using LDAP: yes Using Omniauth: no GitLab Shell Version: 13.18.0 Repository storage paths: - default: /var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories GitLab Shell path: /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-shell Git: /opt/gitlab/embedded/bin/git </pre> </details> #### Results of GitLab application Check <!-- Input any relevant GitLab application check information if needed. --> <details> <summary>Expand for output related to the GitLab application check</summary> <pre> Checking GitLab subtasks ...
