Re: ldap & authnz_ldap modules

[Igor Cicimov <icicimov@xxxxxxxxx>]

1. Use rpm or dpkg to check if you have them installed. For eg:

# rpm -qa | grep ldap

openldap-clients-2.3.43-12.el5_5.2

openldap-devel-2.3.43-12.el5_5.2

openldap-2.3.43-12.el5_5.2

openldap-servers-2.3.43-12.el5_5.2

for Debian/Ubuntu use dpkg for example:

# dpkg -l | grep ldap

If nothing comes up you need to install the ldap packages available to your distro like openldap-clients and openldap-devel. If you need to run LDAP server then install openldap-servers package too. Note that the package names differ from distro to distro.

2. This is what I use to compile apache with LDAP support

--with-ldap=ldap --with-ldap-lib=/usr/lib64 --with-ldap-include=/usr/include --enable-ldap  --enable-authnz-ldap

adjust the paths according to your installation. To find the paths on your installation run something like this:

# rpm -ql openldap-clients

OR

# dpkg -s <package-name-here>

I have only RedHat available at the moment so can't provide dpkg outputs. Also the example is given assuming the LDAP of your choice is OpenLDAP.

Thanks Eric for the quick response.  I didn't find anything on this in the config.log.
1.  How to do verify if my server has this library? Any commands to verify it?
2.  And how do I tell Apache to find this Ldap library, if it exists on my server.

You need an LDAP client library and corresponding -dev headers.
apr-util's config.log will show you what autoconf tests are going on
to try to find one.
