Hi Edward, I found the problem. The problem is in daemon mode, the ldap connection somehow gets disconnected after the jabber server getting loaded.
When the jabber server is started in daemon, it gets loaded and checks for the LDAP connection in the finalize function of LDAP plug in. Once the connection gets established, somehow the LDAP connection got terminated while running as a daemon. Since the values are referred as $self->..., the server thinks the connection is still in established state and tries to search for the user. But actually the ldap connection got terminated before this itself. So, i was getting the account not found. A quick workaround is open a new connection while calling the ldap search function for authenticating the users.
