python-ldap 2.0.0pre04 Installation problem

[Isabelle M. <Isa...@ci...>]

Bonjour,

I got the following error message as I tried to install python-ldap 2.0.0pre04

release on a 2.8 Solaris machine with the command :python setup.py build

( I use python 2.0)

 super@cisun50$ python setup.py build

running build
running build_py

Is it normal he could not find th efile Lib/ldap.py ?

Here is my setup.cfg file

# Section for compiling the C extension module
# for wrapping OpenLDAP 2 libs

[_ldap]
class = OpenLDAP2
library_dirs = /usr/local/lib
include_dirs = /usr/local/include
libs = lber ldap resolv

# Installation options

[install]

compile = 1
optimize = 1

Thanks a lof for your help..

Did you install the required OpenLDAP 2 libs before? If yes, did 
you make sure that they don't conflict with Netscape/iPlanet LDAP 
libs probably shipped with Solaris? Check which libldap is really 
used.

I'd suggest that you build OpenLDAP 2.0.x with 
--prefix=/usr/local/openldap2 and modify setup.cfg accordingly.

library_dirs = /usr/local/openldap2/lib
include_dirs = /usr/local/openldap2/include

I guess you're using Sun's C compiler. Right? Hmm, anyone here 
having experience with that?

Yes, this message is caused by a limitation of DistUtils.

Ciao, Michael.

python-ldap 1.x only works with OpenLDAP 1.x, Netscape 3.x(?) and 
old Novell libs.

python-ldap 2.x requires OpenLDAP 2.x libs installed.

I'd recommend to use python-ldap 2.0.0pre04. There are a couple of 
issues there. But they will be solved. python-ldap 1.x is not 
actively maintained anymore.


Ciao, Michael.
