[php-maint] Bug#535253: php5-ldap: ldap module not loading using fcgi (at least with lighttpd)

[Deny Dias]

Package: php5-ldap
Version: 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3
Severity: important

When using php through lighttpd fast cgi interface (I don't know about apache as I don't use it), php's ldap.so module is not loaded. To verify, just create a php file in your webserver root directory with:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

When you load this script in your web browser and search by 'ldap', there is no mention. Instead, if you issue:

$ php -c /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini -i|grep ldap

the module is correctly loaded, as informed by grep output.

My lighttpd fcgi configuration is:
/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/10-fastcgi.conf

## FastCGI programs have the same functionality as CGI programs,
## but are considerably faster through lower interpreter startup
## time and socketed communication
##
## Documentation: /usr/share/doc/lighttpd-doc/fastcgi.txt.gz
##                http://www.lighttpd.net/documentation/fastcgi.html

server.modules   += ( "mod_fastcgi" )

## Start an FastCGI server for php (needs the php5-cgi package)
fastcgi.server    = ( ".php" =>
        ((
                "bin-path" => "/usr/bin/php-cgi",
                "socket" => "/tmp/php.socket",
                "max-procs" => 1,
                "idle-timeout" => 20,
                "bin-environment" => (
                        "PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN" => "4",
                        "PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS" => "10000"
                ),
                "bin-copy-environment" => (
                        "PATH", "SHELL", "USER"
                ),
                "broken-scriptfilename" => "enable"
        ))
)
[EOF]

As stated before, I don't have any other web server software instaled on my Debian box, so I cant confirm if this behaviour only impacts lighty.

Best,

Deny Dias.
