vTiger AD authentication - vtiger

Question

I was trying to authenticate vTiger CRM 6.5 with my existing Active Directory services, but it's not working. Looks like this is getting response from my AD server but not going anywhere. After using correct credential the page will just refresh, but once you enter wrong credential, it says - "wrong username or password". I am using "http://adldap.sourceforge.net/" for AD authentication. And my log says -

To test adLDAP, write a small php script than doing it directly with vTiger CRM. Just create adldap_test.php file, in the same directory where adLDAP.php resides, with following content:
<?php
require_once(dirname(FILE) . '/adLDAP.php');
try {
$adldap = new adLDAP();
} catch (adLDAPException $e) {
echo $e;
exit();
}
$authUser = $adldap->authenticate('user-to-authenticate', 'users-password');
if ($authUser == true) {
echo "User authenticated successfully";
} else {
// getLastError is not needed, but may be helpful for finding out why:
echo "\n";
echo $adldap->getLastError();
echo "\n";
echo "User authentication unsuccessful";
}
echo "\n";
$result=$adldap->user()->infoCollection('ldap', array("*"));
echo "User:\n";
echo $result->displayName;
echo "Mail:\n";
echo $result->mail;
?>
Replace user and password for the user you want to test authentication for and execute it. It should give success and output the username and mail address if available. Hope this helps you to solve your problem.

You must enable php-ldap extension on your server. please check adldap project
requirements
https://github.com/adldap/adLDAP/wiki/Apache-configuration
you can use the following links for install ldap on your server
Ldap configuration on xammp
Using php-ldap in Centos 6.3
Unable to enable PHP LDAP even though I have edited php.ini and php_ldap.dll is in the right place?
