Bug #65426 for Authen-Simple-LDAP: Typo in Net::LDAP->new()

Thu Feb 03 15:03:31 2011 bnordgren [...] gmail.com - Ticket created

Subject:

Typo in Net::LDAP->new()

Started getting "server unavailable" (error 52) when attempting to bind against corporate AD server. All other LDAP mechanisms (python, ldapsearch, apache etc.) continued to work from the same machine. Tracked problem down to this code: my $connection = Net::LDAP->new( $self->host, Port => $self->port, Timeout => $self->timeout, Version => $self->version ); "Port" should be "port", "Timeout" should be "timeout", and "Version" should be "version". I'm using perl 5.12.2 on Archlinux. My last "full system update" was yesterday.

Thanks for your report, I'm a bit tied up today and tomorrow, but I'll fix this this weekend. You can workaround this bug if you don't need to specify version or timeout by providing a URI in host. Authen::Simple::LDAP->new( host => 'ldaps://host:1234' ). -- chansen

I also noticed this a long while back, but was hoping this bug would prompt a bugfix. It appears it's still broken... any plans on posting a new version (the fix is really trivial, but would help with software distribution so I don't have to ship my own version of this module).

Thank you for your reports, I have pushed a new release to CPAN which corrects the typos. <https://metacpan.org/release/CHANSEN/Authen-Simple-LDAP-0.3> I'm sorry for the late fix. -- chansen
