`Note that you can sometimes get more detailed error messages by getting the value of the LDAP_OPT_DIAGNOSTIC_MESSAGE option.

For example, after a recent connection error the two gave very different info:

conn=ldapconnect(conn = ldap_connect(conn=ldapconnect(server); ldap_search($conn, dn,dn, dn,query); echo "ldap_error: " . ldap_error($conn); ldap_get_option($conn, LDAP_OPT_DIAGNOSTIC_MESSAGE, $err); echo "ldap_get_option: $err"; ?>

This resulted in:

ldap_error: Can't contact LDAP server
ldap_get_option: TLS: hostname does not match CN in peer certificate

For those wondering, this function appears to do the same thing as: <?php ldap_err2str( ldap_errno() ); ?>
