Solaris 8 & python_ldap for Zope/Python

[Robert C. <Rob...@em...>]

Has anyone tried to get this to work?

Sorry if this has been covered, I am new to the list.  I am
trying to get Zope 2.4 + Python 2.1.1 + LDAP to work.
The LDAP libraries native to Solaris 8 seem to be missing a real
reference to ldap_name2template. At least that is what zope
complains about when it starts up.  I have the
python-ldap-1.10alpha3.  I have also tried to compile openldap
(versions 1.2.12 and 2.0.11) without any real success.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bob Craven

I can't give you specific hints about building under Solaris 8 and
the native LDAP libs with Solaris 8 (AFAIK it's the Netscape LDAP
SDK).

But I'd suggest that you check out the latest snapshot of
python-ldap and try to build that against a local copy of the
OpenLDAP 1.2.12 tree. Support for OpenLDAP 2 libs is work in
progress and currently very experimental.

If you have problems the most promising way is to come up with the
build log on this mailing list.

Ciao, Michael.

Robert, as an addendum, the Solaris 8 libs aren't the netscape libs (Sun=20=

has their own working code base). So, alternatively, you could use the=20=

netscape libraries or the mozilla versions if the OpenLDAP ones do not=20=

work. Michael is correct in that any logs of the builds will help out=20
list readers.

to the rest: yeah, I'm back in action, and happy to see a lot of list=20
traffic of late in positive directions. It looks like I may get to focus=20=

most of my energies on Zope since the effort on the OpenLDAP 2.x stuff=20=

is progressing nicely. One note: I'm hoping to resolve darwin/MacOSX=20
dynamic library issues since Zope folks seem to like MacOSX.
