Answer 1

The PHP LDAP extension is required to use LDAP functions. Just check it's uncommented in your php.ini (extension=php_ldap.dll)

Answer 2

The PHP extension is clearly not loading. A couple things to try:

• run 'php -m' from the command line and ensure that ldap is in the list of modules, and that there are no errors related to ldap.
• ensure that the apache php module is using the php.ini that you modified ( and look for php.ini on the page)
