LDAP Configuration is failing with Strange Parse error

[shivu prasad]

Hi,

I am trying to configure the LDAP module

there are the my LDAP server details
          --- Server Details ---
Host Name:                slc10yyj.us.oracle.com
Administrative Users:     cn=Directory Manager
port : 1389
Base DN:     dc=example,dc=com

I added the same config in radb/modes-available/ldap and created soft link
in modes-enabled/

I enabled the ldap auth in site-enabled default file

*dap {        #  Note that this needs to match the name(s) in the LDAP
server        #  certificate, if you're using ldaps.  See OpenLDAP
documentation        #  for the behavioral semantics of specifying more
than one host.        #        #  Depending on the libldap in use, server
may be an LDAP URI.        #  In the case of OpenLDAP this allows
additional the following        #  additional schemes:        #  - ldaps://
(LDAP over SSL)        #  - ldapi:// (LDAP over Unix socket)        #  -

when I try to start server its failing with below parser error
  # Instantiating module "cache_eap" from file

I given the server adress with hotsname and with ldap.prefix also
like
* server = 'ldap://ldap.slc10yyj.us.oracle.com
<http://ldap.slc10yyj.us.oracle.com>'*
* server = 'ldap.slc10yyj.us.oracle.com
<http://ldap.slc10yyj.us.oracle.com>'*
* server = 'slc10yyj.us.oracle.com <http://slc10yyj.us.oracle.com>'*

every time i am getting same error.

I even further dig in to see where the error is coming its looks like
*ldap_url_parse()* api is failing.

I checked the api my creating the sample C program if i give the input
as *'ldap://ldap.slc10yyj.us.oracle.com
<http://ldap.slc10yyj.us.oracle.com>' *is working fine in sample app, but
failing in free-radius server *.*

*Can anyone let me know what wrong going on here why the api in same linux
as sample app but failing in the server*
