Ldap Extension for /shivammathur/[email protected]

[armandgabriel]

Hello there,

I come here after countless hours of searching a fix for adding the 'extension=ldap' for the php env on my mac m1 laptop. I found that the most stable version of php is the one provided by you @shivammathur , installed via brew and managed to start my Laravel application. The next thing is to activate the ldap extension I use for my project.
After modifying the php.ini file and restarting the service I get this error and I don't know what to do:
hp --ini

Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'ldap' (tried: /opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap (dlopen(/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap, 0x0009): tried: '/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap' (no such file), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap' (no such file), '/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap' (no such file)), /opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap.so (dlopen(/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap.so, 0x0009): tried: '/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap.so' (no such file), '/System/Volumes/Preboot/Cryptexes/OS/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap.so' (no such file), '/opt/homebrew/lib/php/pecl/20190902/ldap.so' (no such file))) in Unknown on line 0

Please if anyone has any solutions would help me.

Thank you in advance,
Kind regards,

You don't need to add extension=ldap in your php.ini. Please remove that.

Ldap extension in these php builds is compiled statically along with PHP. So it should be available once PHP is installed

Please run php -m and ldap should be there.
