But I expected this output instead:

# Successful build

When using OpenLDAP, build works. Issue is that Oracle's LDAP implementation lacks several features added to ext/ldap with only OpenLDAP in mind. As far as I see this hasn't been reported by anyone yet, so I would simply suggest to remove the Oracle's LDAP adjustments in the build system so the OpenLDAP is used there only (./configure --with-ldap).

EDIT: This has been also reported at https://bugs.php.net/80926

• Oracle Instant Client 19.23

PHP Version

PHP 8.2+

Operating System

Oracle Solaris 11.4

Possibly also cc @MCMic

[cjbj]

Yes, I believe ldap/config.m4 should be updated and the Oracle references removed.

Instant Client has an older version/API of LDAP. This is almost certain to never change - you can follow up Oracle bug 14049255 I logged ages ago that isn't go to go anywhere. In summary, don't build PHP's LDAP extension with Instant Client.

If you ever need to have both PHP LDAP and OCI8 installed, the traditional technique was to add OCI8 as a shared library after PHP was built.

[NattyNarwhal]

I also saw in ext/ldap/config.m4 that it seems to support Solaris LDAP too, not just OpenLDAP. Does the extension still work with non-OpenLDAP implementations, or should we just commit to OpenLDAP only? Windows version seems to be hardcoded for OpenLDAP.

[cmb69]

Windows version seems to be hardcoded for OpenLDAP.

Right, and I'm not aware of any requests to open this for other LDAP implementations. And regarding the official Windows builds, I don't think that there are any plans to use another implementation.

[petk]

There is now initial PR created #15067

However, I'm probably missing something more here. The ldap_connect_wallet function was implemented in PHP 8.3 when HAVE_ORALDAP symbol is defined. As an alternative to the ldap_connect() with 3 arguments specific to Oracle. But I have no idea how this was meant to work without Oracle Instant Client. Does perhaps @kocsismate know about this what to do here?

Oracle Instant Client provides also 3 specific constants: GSLC_SSL_NO_AUTH, GSLC_SSL_ONEWAY_AUTH, and GSLC_SSL_TWOWAY_AUTH, which would also be removed with this... Regarding these 3 constants there was also a fix done in master (current PHP-8.4-dev) branch #14313 so I think removal of these 3 is not problematic as they were never available in PHP actually.

[cmb69]

I think #5177 (comment) clarifies this a bit.

[petk]

I think #5177 (comment) clarifies this a bit.

Thanks. This makes sense now :) Got it. Let's wait with all of this until PHP 9 then and remove it then.

[cmb69]

I was looking for the mentioned RFC in the wrong place, but finally found it.

Anyhow, isn't there a place now where such future changes are tracked? If so, this ticket could be closed.

I'm not sure there is any tracker for these. I'd prefer to leave this opened because this is sort of a separate issue related to the build system also. By removing the Oracle Instant Client installation feature all Oracle specific LDAP features are also removed. And by having current implementation there is no way to use this function realistically without some heavy patching of C code. Which is not good at all.
