Hi Dale (and readers of bug #542461), I had this exact same problem, it's not a bug with phpLDAPadmin, it's a bug within the php5* v5.2.10 packages somewhere. Downgrade your php5 (to 5.2.9, or 5.2.6) packages to fix.
My kung-fu isn't strong enough to tell you exactly where in php5 the problem is, I looked thru the php5 5.2.10 bugs, but they're all pretty much greek, some greater rocket surgeon should most certainly help with this one though, because I suspect the problem is bigger than just phpldapadmin. I had a huge problem earlier this month (with the date and logging into accounts) on drupal, wordpress, and phpmyadmin because of an endian issue in the 5.2.10 version of php5 (http://aqfl.net/?q=node/7357) (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=542301) (http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=198329). I fixed it by downgrading my php5 packages back to 5.2.9. HOWEVER, it appears 5.2.9 is gone from testing now (and is 5.2.10 instead), so my WORKAROUND for the phpLDAPadmin instance of the problem (on a different box) was to downgrade php5 (and associated packages) to the stable branch's 5.2.6 version with the following: apt-get -t stable install php5-ldap=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php5-common=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php5-suhosin- php5-pgsql- php5-mysql=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 zabbix-frontend-php phpmyadmin phpldapadmin php5-mcrypt=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php5-imap=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php5-gd=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php5-cli=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php5=5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny3 php-pear/stable php-log/stable php-auth/stable libapache2-mod-php5/stable egroupware my sources.list references all branches (on purpose, for situations just like this), and I don't know what your situation is, so ymmv, but downgrading to 5.2.6 FIXES the problem with phpldapadmin. This is most likely a problem in some php5 v5.2.10 package somewhere, somebody please help and link to the proper malady.
