Description Jari Turkia 2013-06-17 07:23:13 UTC
Description of problem:
php LDAP admin does not work with PHP 5.5.0 RC3

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
phpldapadmin-1.2.3-2.fc19.noarch
php-5.5.0-0.10.RC3.fc19.x86_64

How reproducible:
Easily. Install phpldapadmin and confirm it not working with /usr/share/phpldapadmin/lib/functions.php redeclaring password_hash() which is a built-in function in PHP 5.5.0.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install
2. Go to default URL
3. Confirm PHP parse error

Actual results:
Various types of failures

Expected results:
Any kind of functionality

Additional info:
The re-declared password_hash() can be easily commented out to have _some_ functionality. After logging in, various other errors appear. For example:
Unrecognized error number: 8192: preg_replace(): The /e modifier is deprecated, use preg_replace_callback instead

... all of which are PHP 5.5 -related.

However, people like me who require LDAP-administration are pretty much out of options here. This is a roadblock when considering upgrading into Fedora 19. The phpldapadmin-package must be either fixed or removed as completely incompatible.

Could you please test this patch (for speedup to solve the issue)?

Are there some other issues (besides these two) in your environment?

Comment 2 Jari Turkia 2013-06-17 13:14:02 UTC
The above patch works without problems and fixes any PHP 5.5 issues I encountered. Thanks!

Comment 6 Max Christian Pohle 2013-10-06 02:29:06 UTC
reopen! the patch is not complete. in file /usr/share/phpldapadmin/lib/PageRender.php, line 290 there is
  $vals[$i] = password_hash($passwordvalue,$enc);
which should be
  $vals[$i] = pla_password_hash($passwordvalue,$enc);

problem was, that php5 introduced a so called 'password_hash' function as standardfunction, which is not meant to be called by phpldapadmin.

^ sorry for not providing a diff, but I edited the file in place without a backup
