LDAP : Binding problem

[Antony Joseph]

hi ,
I am new to Python Ldap programming,
I am trying to read the user details from Active directory using LDAP(python)
I am getting errors :
                     antony@DG11:~/Desktop/UploadCards$ python ldap1.py
                     successfull
                     {'info': '00000000: LdapErr: DSID-0C090627, comment: In order to perform this operation a successful bind must be completed on the connection., data 0, vece', 'desc': 'Operations error'}

Anyone can tell me whats wrong in my code ?

[Code]

import ldap
try:
    l = ldap.open("101.1.1.2")
    l.protocol_version = ldap.VERSION3    
    username = "cn=raj,o=any.com"
    password  = "secret"
    keyword = "ldap"    
    l.simple_bind(username, password)

    print "successfull"
               
    base=""
    scope=ldap.SCOPE_SUBTREE
    filter ="cn=" + "*" + keyword + "*"
    retrieve_attributes = None
    count = 0
    result_set = []
    timeout = 0
    try:
               result_id = l.search(base, scope, filter, retrieve_attributes)
        while 1:
                                                                                                                         
                  result_type, result_data = l.result (result_id,timeout)-----------> throwing Exceptions

                   if (result_data == []):
                           break
                   else:
                           if result_type == ldap.RES_SEARCH_ENTRY:
                               result_set.append(result_data)
                    print "%d.\nName: %s\nDescription: %s\nE-mail: %s\nPhone: %s\n" % (count)
        except ldap.LDAPError , error_message:
               print error_message

except ldap.LDAPError, e:
    print e

Please try to ask on the python LDAP mailing list first:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/python-ldap-dev

they will surely have more info to give you.

But from what I see you have given wrong credential and couldn't
perform a successful bind, which is the minimum requirement to be able
to query the directory.

Regards,
Florent.

One more remark: avoid using html emails when posting to mailing
lists, google blocked your post because it though it was spam, and
even the notification from the server (that I usually receive each
time a mail is stored on the server for review) was flagged as spam :)

As you are using Active Directory, you may find this library easier to
use:

http://tgolden.sc.sabren.com/python/active_directory.html

If you need to stick with python-ldap then it may be easier to debug
you code using
synchronous mode:

l.simple_bind_s(username, password)

Also, try using the initialize function instead of open (open is
depreciated).

using windows as server? win32 are windows-specific modules, they don't exist
on linux.
