openLDAP not installed

Sorry for hijacking your thread with something unrelated but I am Googling myself in circles with 30 threads open all with the same 2 or 3 pages in!

About 3 years ago you contributed to a now closed thread regarding windows server install of multiple WP installs in sub-folders with a main site in the root.

I have the exact problem you wrote about and am having trouble finding an answer with all the circular references in many closed threads.

I did write a better explanation of my problem but lost it by closing the wrong browser tab! I have summarized at the bottom this post as I hate it when people ask questions with supplying information.

If you could remember the solution it would be so much appreciated as I am going nuts here! ??

“mine is still not working even with the last post.
I have a main site and I have installed wordpress site on the same server under that domain, ex https://intranet and the new one is https://intranet/testsite

When I try to put the Day and name permalink the pages get directed to https://intranet

anything I’m missing?”

My basics
– I am new to WordPress
– I changed my asp.net/sql server site to a wordpress one by installing it on my windows hosting
– All was well
– I added an independent microsite in a sub folder by installing wp in a sub-folder.
– Added a theme
– Changed permalinks to name
– tried to add a page and site died with 500 errors
– googled and fixed 500 error with new web.config file.
– now all content in subfolder bounces to top level site design and gets a “oops content not found error”

Not much to go on.

What system are you running on?

Here are a couple options depending on if you happen to be running a Linux distro:

* sudo yum install php-ldap
* sudo apt-get install php5-ldap

If IIS, then it sounds like a problem I was having… Your rewrite rules are not quite right or they are getting messed up by subsite rules… (note the “remove” clauses in my rules)

I also modified/added to the normal WP rewrite rules so they work better… I was having issues with certain plugins and subfolder installs until I edited my rewrite rules.

<rewrite>

I’m running current version of WP on Win2012 R2, IIS no openLDAP installed. After much searching I found a solution posted for a different plugin that works for this one as well.

Once you add extension=php_ldap.dll to the [ExtensionList] section of your php.ini file, you’ll no longer receive the openLDAP message and then you can start troubleshooting actual AD authentication issues, if any. My php.ini was stored in C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.4\, but yours might be in a slightly different location

@drunk Skunk

THANKS – adding extension=php_ldap.dll to php.ini worked for me,
