#30567 [NEW]: Problems encoding to utf8 when adding an entry into the LDAP

From: leticia dot borrajo at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux Fedora Core 1 PHP version: 4.3.8 PHP Bug Type: LDAP related Bug description: Problems encoding to utf8 when adding an entry into the LDAP Description: ------------ We work with OpenLDAP 2.1.22 and PHP 4.3.8 I'm working in a set of applications to manage our LDAP directory. We archive into the LDAP information about users, and need to save spanish characters, such as "á", "ñ",... So when I try to add an entry into the ldap, I apply "utf8_encode" to some attributes. By the moment these attributes are: 'cn', 'sn' and 'gecos'. When this happens, I have 2 problems: 1. In 'sn' there use to be 2 words, first surname and second surname, and after apply utf8_encode, it deletes the second surname. 2. When I try to add the entry into the ldap, I get an error and it can't be done Any idea? Reproduce code: --------------- The code is this: $info['uid']=$uid; $info['cn']=utf8_encode($cn); $info['sn']=utf8_encode($sn); $info['userPassword']="{MD5}".base64_encode(pack("H*",md5($clave))); $info['gecos']=utf8_encode($gecos); $info['ou']=$ou; $ds=ldap_connect($servidor); if($ds) { $user="cn=Administrador,o=ou.uvigo.es"; $r=ldap_bind($ds,$user,$cla); if ($r) { $añade= ldap_add($ds,$usuario,$info); ... } } Expected result: ---------------- If everything were ok, I would see "Usuario añadido con éxito". Instead of that I only get "Invalid syntax". Actual result: -------------- The actual result is: Warning: ldap_add(): Add: Invalid syntax in /var/www/html/proyecto/crear_usuario.php on line 70 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30567&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=float MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30567&r=mysqlcfg
