ldap authenticator problems

[Rene Paquin]

I am setting up a new install of shibboleth idp 4.1 and I am getting authentication errors.  I am missing something but I dint know what.  I have configured the password-authn-config.xml for ldap validation, configured ldap.properties and authn.properties but when trying to connect I get the following errors

Any help appreciated.
