Bug Summary

I am using awx operator, I am using the latest version, 2.19.1, https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/releases/tag/2.19.1.
I am using the extra settings to configure my ldap, https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/blob/devel/docs/user-guide/advanced-configuration/extra-settings.md#extra-settings

I follow this settings : https://github.com/ansible/awx-operator/blob/devel/docs/user-guide/advanced-configuration/enabling-ldap-integration-at-awx-bootstrap.md

The Ldap feature is working as expected, however, I have this error log generated, continuously in my awx web pod, it flood the disk space.

Can someone look at this issue?
