I think the error mechanism you are checking never even had a chance
to kick in...
It's kind of like an in-flight warning system for an airplane that
never got off the ground... It's going to keep saying "no error"
while the plane burns to a cinder if it never got turned on in the
first place as it never got in the air.
preg_match("/^ldap(s)?:\/\/([a-zA-Z0-9-])+\.[a-zA-Z.]{2,5}$/",$this->server)

Yup.
You only need to escape the delimiter you chose if it's in the pattern.
Or, looking at it from the pattern point of view: Pick a delimiter
you are unlikely to ever need in the pattern, so you won't need to
escape it.
