We are using AD for our LDAP configuration. Communication between AWX and AD seems to work as expected. AWX-Web pod logs show successful authentication, but the user gets a timeout error in the UI. This issue occurs several times a day and “resolves” itself after a few minutes. I cannot provide steps to reproduce since this does not happen consistently.

here are the log messages for a user that attempted to login

```auto

After a few tweaks to the logging we are seeing an additional log message

awx.analytics.performance request: \<WSGIRequest: POST ‘/api/login/’\>, response\_time: 30.252s

any additional help would be appreciated
