Thanks a million. I'm learning quite a bit about Python-LDAP and about clean, efficient HTML outputting from your application. Great stuff.

I'm using Luma 1.3 on SuSE 9.1 with OpenLDAP. I'm unable to browse below the root container using the Browser plugin. I don't get any entries at all in the AddressBook plugin. I know my logon credentials are correct because I can add a new user via the UserManagement plugin then view the object in gq.

Any suggestions on what I'm missing? Thanks.


Could you tell me which versions of python-ldap and OpenLDAP you are using? And which authentification methods does your server support? I have met another person yesterday who has the same problem, but we were not yet able to track down the problem exactly. We got so far, that the search requests returned no results, but we don't know why. The only difference was that I tested my code with OpenLDAP 2.0 and 2.1. The other person is using 2.2. Is your server publicly available? Then I would be able to do some testing for myself and the whole debugging would be much faster. I need only anon read access.


Thanks for the personal reply, Wido. Here's my version statistics:

python-ldap is installed...
       Installed version: 2.0.0pre19
       Minimum version: 2.0.0pre13

PyQt is installed...
       Installed version: 3.11
       Minimum version: 3.10

Qt version...
       Installed version: 3.3.1
       Minimum version: 3.2

smbpasswd module is installed.
Could you have a look which version of OpenLDAP you are using? And it would be handy if I could access your server over the internet. This way I can fix this bug without mailing much.


I'm running OpenLDAP 2.2.6.

I'm behind a firewall and I can't give you access. Sorry.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give me.


Ok, I'm sure now that this problem is related to OpenLDAP 2.2. I'll try to get this version running on my gentoo box and try to fix this problem. After that I'll do a pre-release and mail it to you for testing.


I just got OpenLDAP 2.2 working here and I got no problems with retrieving results from the tree. However I used the latest version of python-ldap (2.0.0 instead of 2.0.0pre19 which you have). Maybe you could try to rebuild python-ldap on your system and try it with Luma then. Maybe it works.


I'll install it right now and let you know what happens.
