[dev] Horde/Kolab: Can't contact LDAP server

Hi everyone

I try to install the horde webclient (cvs version) on my server for using it with kolab 2.
For this, I installed a fresh opensuse 10.1, then installed kolab 2 as
described here: http://en.opensuse.org/Kolab (this works perfectly,
mails are accepted and delivered to the right mailbox, I can send
mails, read mails etc, all via imap) and last I installed the horde
application as described here
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Kolab2_Installation_-_Horde and here
http://www.kolab.org/webclient.html.
After the configuration of the horde framework, a strange error
appears:

Warning: ldap_search() [function.ldap-search]: Search: Can't contact
LDAP server in /usr/share/php5/PEAR/Horde/Prefs/ldap.php on line 218
Warning: ldap_search() [function.ldap-search]: Search: Can't contact
LDAP server in /usr/share/php5/PEAR/Horde/Prefs/ldap.php on line 218
Notice: Failed to retrieve user's DN: [-1] Can't contact LDAP server in
/usr/share/php5/PEAR/PEAR.php on line 879
Failed to retrieve user's DN: [-1] Can't contact LDAP server

I can't login proper to horde anymore. The ldap server is up and running (I can logon to the web admin and mails are accepted correctly). When I try to login to horde with a user that does not exist in the ldap directory, then the right message appears (without any errors): "Login failed because your username or password was entered incorrectly." But with a correct username/password, the above error appears.

At the end of this mail is my horde conf.php, perhaps anyone sees a
problem ore a wrong configuration entry.

Thanks
Tobias
