Python LDAP

[Juan]

Hi

I am trying to make a simple Python script using LDAP. The module is
imported OK, but when I call the function open or initialize, I get
this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/juan/workspace/amquare/src/nutum/amquare/amquare.py",
line 122, in <module>
conn.connect()
File "/home/juan/workspace/amquare/src/nutum/amquare/ldap_util.py",
line 39, in connect
self.conn = ldap.initialize(self.host, self.port)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ldap/functions.py", line 87,
in initialize
return LDAPObject(uri,trace_level,trace_file,trace_stack_limit)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ldap/ldapobject.py", line 70,
in __init__
self._l = ldap.functions._ldap_function_call(_ldap.initialize,uri)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ldap/functions.py", line 59,
in _ldap_function_call
result = func(*args,**kwargs)
LDAPError: (2, 'No such file or directory')

What file is not found? I have lots of searches but don't get any
answer. Anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks in advance.

self.conn = ldap.initialize(self.host, self.port)
> [..]
LDAPError: (2, 'No such file or directory')

You have to pass in a LDAP URI as documented here:
http://python-ldap.sourceforge.net/doc/html/ldap.html#ldap.initialize

Use of compability function ldap.open() is deprecated and might vanish
in future versions of python-ldap.

See also Demo/initialize.py in python-ldap's source distribution.

Ciao, Michael.

Perfect! Thank you very much.
