Unable to use LDAP/AD in Bitnami VM

IMPORTANT, please fill the questions

We assume you are using Bitnami to deploy your application.

Which version of the application are you using?:
7.0.0.1
Please choose how you got the application: Installer (Windows, Linux, macOS), cloud image (AWS, GCE, Azure, ...) or VM (VMDK, VBOX):
VM
Have you installed any plugin or modified any configuration file?:
Yes, added REDASH_LDAP settings to the /opt/bitnami/apps/redash/htdocs/.env
Describe here your question/suggestion/issue (expected and actual results):
Settings in .env file
REDASH_LDAP_LOGIN_ENABLED="true"
REDASH_LDAP_URL="ldap//10.10.1.150:389"
REDASH_LDAP_BIND_DN="uid=ldapreader,ou=users"
REDASH_LDAP_BIND_DN-PASSWORD="ldapreader-password"
REDASH_LDAP_DISPLAY_NAME_KEY="uid"
REDASH_LDAP_EMAIL_KEY="mail"
REDASH_LDAP_CUSTOM_USERNAME_PROMPT=" Please enter login account"
REDASH_LDAP_SEARCH_TEMPLATE="(sAMAccountName=%(username)s)"
REDASH_LDAP_DN="dc=ourdomain,dc=com"

after a reboot of the VM it is not possible to login anymore.
Changing the first setting to REDASH_LDAP_LOGIN_ENABLED="false" and a reboot solves this problem, but using the AD is for obvious reasons still not possible.

Steps to reproduce the issue (if relevant):
Activating or deactivating the LDAP settings in Apache (httpd.conf) makes no difference
Copy the apache log (if relevant):
```
PASTE HERE
```

Hi @robert.getreuer

I verified there is a typo in your configuration:

REDASH_LDAP_BIND_DN-PASSWORD="ldapreader-password"

should be

REDASH_LDAP_BIND_DN_PASSWORD="ldapreader-password"

In addition, you should install the ldap3 module:

sudo su
cd /opt/bitnami
./use_redash
. ./apps/redash/htdocs/venv/bin/activate
pip install ldap3

Let us know if this solves the issue.
