[Xerte] Access via LDAP

Fri May 1 11:08:01 BST 2009

Hello All,

Thank you for all your suggestions.

The LDAP module wasn't enabled in the default XAMPP installation. After
editing the php.ini file LDAP is working now.

I don't use cookies.

Here is basically how index.php works

If anything post - no, well draw the page

Is anything posted - yes - well check to see what it is

Is what is posted (password, username) correct, then draw the page with
the projects on.

If you've put xampp onto a server, the reason is because XAMPP usually
doesn't have LDAP installed.

Does your PHP info have an ldap section?

I don't see a PHP error there, but the cookie expiration date is in the
past. Maybe that's the problem?
