[SOLVED] Checking domain controller ports: [ERROR] FAILED

On a fresh Centos 7 installation with LAMP following these instructions:-
https://www.howtoforge.com/apache_php_mysql_on_centos_7_lamp
https://www.howtoforge.com/centos_wordpress_install
then add the ADI plugin, configure and….

Maybe I missed it somewhere int he installation notes but to save anybody else the time trying to figure it out, here’s how I fixed a problem where my ADI would not work, even with the firewall switched off. I could use ldapsearch at the command line OK but nothing from ADI in the browser.

a comment on this page sorted me out:-

/usr/sbin/setsebool httpd_can_network_connect=1

I didn’t think I was using SELinux but apparently so.
cooking on gas now 🙂
