the search() method always returns a message object.
I order to check whether the search was successful,
you need to check the return code which is
available using the code() method of the resulting message object.
In your case e.g.
if (($mesg->code != LDAP_SUCCESS) ||
($mesg->count() != 1)) {
# .. do whatever you want here ..
}
Hop it helps
