LDAP component missing php function

[william.sweat]

Hello,

I have a fresh install of Nagios XI 2011R1.1. I installed the LDAP component, http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Ad ... nt/details, and entered the correct information. When I attempt to login, I see this in the error logs

[Fri Mar 25 10:30:22 2011] [error] [client some.ip.address] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function ldap_connect() in /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/ldapauth/ldapauth.inc.php on line 256, referer: http://ldap.server.ip/nagiosxi/login.ph ... dex.php%3f

The function 'ldap_connect' doesn't exist in the XI code. Has this been renamed? Is there an update for this component correcting the problem?

Thanks

Hello William,
just a few quick questions:
-What distro are you using? (CentOS, RHEL, etc)
-is this VM or on a dedicated physical box?
-what steps did you take in installing it?


It may be that something needs to be changed in ldapauth.inc.php as it is stating an undefined function.


Thanks!

Hi Rene,

I needed to have php-ldap installed on the system (yum install php-ldap). Can the documentation for this be updated to list this as a requirement?

To answer your other questions:
CentOS 5.5
Physical Box
Used the Manual Installation instructions (no errors)

I will look into getting this added and thank you for the tip
