Two insipid little issues need to be highlighted. They were pointed out separate comments previously, but are worth repeating: =================================== When specifying an array for $entry, MAKE SURE its index values are CONTIGUOUS and that NO EMPTY VALUES are present. (I didn't test whether or not associative arrays are acceptable.) =================================== If you have an empty value in the array, you'll get an "Invalid Syntax" error (at least with OpenLDAP libs), which is bad enough, but if you use something like array_diff() to remove blank entries from your array, leaving a non-contiguous set of index numbers, you might get "Success" from ldap_error() and 0 (zero) from ldap_errno(), BUT ldap_modify() will return FALSE. Wow. This last point may be a bug and may be version dependent (PHP or LDAP libs), but it's still best to make sure your array index numbers are contiguous and that there are no blank entries. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 69.107.104.23 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ldap-modify.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/100341 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/100341 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/100341 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
