This is a smaller version of the real thing. It's pretty much the same as the one you showed in your blog. However enough to toast fcgi on that box...We are connecting to Netcape LDAP from a linux box, with the latest ruby-ldap and openldap installed. Pretty bleak docs and suppport out there to resolve this kind of stuff. Looks like the ruby-ldap project might be dead. Yikes !! #!/usr/local/bin/ruby require 'ldap' def print_entry(entry) puts ">>>> Entry #{entry.to_s} #{entry.class}" entry.each_key { |k| puts "Key: #{k} --> #{entry[k]}" } end ldap_conn = LDAP::Conn.new('fred.blee.com', 389) ldap_conn.bind{ i = 0 ldap_conn.search2('cn=bozo,ou=Fred Groups,o=blee.com', LDAP::LDAP_SCOPE_SUBTREE, '(cn=*)'){|entry| i += 1 print_entry(entry) } } No problem.

I am now receiving errors regarding connection to the LDAP server, and I haven't had a chance to dig into it yet. I'd love to see how you've composed your script (the connection portion), if you don't mind emailing a copy. This was running beautifully with Apache2+fcgi until very recently.

Good stuff !! Now have you had a chance to try running this script using a rails app ? We are trying to lookup some entries in ldap using ruby-ldap and our scripts work great from the cmd line, however when we run within apache2 + fcgi we get the following error: ruby: error.c:264: ldap_parse_result: Assertion `( (ld)->ld_options.ldo_valid == 0x2 )' failed. Any Ideas ? Hi,
