Hey Michael. Thank you for your response. I modified LDAPObject.c and ldapcontrol.c to use the solution described here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-cdb/+bug/157251 Looks like it is something specific to glibc in ubuntu and the "recommended" use of PyObject_Del instead of PyMem_DEL. I've attached a patch showing the modifications for anyone else ripping their hair out. The glibc python free() error is now gone. Now I can focus on my actual problem which I think has to do with my python-ldap calls being blocked under fcgi. I tried compiling openldap --without-threads thinking that it might magically work but no dice. regards, -Matt On Tue, Aug 26, 2008 at 12:39 AM, Michael Ströder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Matt Bartolome wrote: >> I've got a little problem and I'm not sure how to track down the error >> I'm getting.
