I have successfully integrated LibreNMS with Windows Azure SSO, and initially everything works fine — I’m able to log in using my SSO user without any issues.
However, after some time (a few hours or days), the SSO authentication stops working and produces errors.
To temporarily fix it, I have to rerun the following commands:
After doing this, SSO login works again — but only temporarily.
Error from librenms.log:
[2026-04-17T14:50:21][ERROR] Wrong value for auth.socialite.configs.microsoft.listener set, class: ‘\SocialiteProviders\Microsoft\MicrosoftExtendSocialite’ does not exist!
[2026-04-17T14:50:21][CRITICAL] Exception: InvalidArgumentException Driver [microsoft] not supported. @ /opt/librenms/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Support/Manager.php:104
Question:
Has anyone experienced this issue before?
It seems like the Microsoft Socialite provider is somehow missing or not being loaded after some time. Could this be related to:
Composer dependencies being removed/reset?
Cache/config issues?
Cron jobs or updates overwriting files?
Any advice or permanent fix would be greatly appreciated.
When you add the provider, it adds it to composer.json and composer.lock. If you reset those files and run composer it will remove the plugin and stop working.
Basically, add the provider as you do above then don’t touch composer.* files.
Those two commands are absolutely fine to run afaik and don’t clear out the composer files.
Usually it’s a git checkout, ./scripts/github-remove or similar that would do that. LibreNMS itself won’t reset the files automatically, it will be something you’re running or doing that’s resetting them.
FORCE=1 php composer.phar require socialiteproviders/microsoft This step is your problem, the docs tell you to run lnms plugin:add socialiteproviders/microsoft.
honestly I asked 3 AI to help me install it, because previously i got some error.
this is the error when i run the command:
SRV:~$ lnms plugin:add socialiteproviders/microsoft
Could not open input file: require
SRV:~$ composer require socialiteproviders/github
-bash: composer: command not found
SRV:~$ lnms plugin:add socialiteproviders/microsoft

Running composer update is not advisable. Please run composer install to update instead.
If know what you are doing and want to write a new composer.lock file set FORCE=1.
If you don’t know what to do, run: composer install
