Looking back at this now, I think the original problem (incompatibility with PHP 5.3) has been fixed. What's left is a mixed bag of problems caused by the change to PLA 1.2:

  1. PLA now needs read access to dn.base="" and dn.base="cn=subschema"
  2. PLA now requires everyone to customize the default templates for modifying or creating objects, if they don't want to have to select which template to use every time they want to view or create an object.
  3. PLA now spews errors by default whenever it can't find a template object or attribute in the LDAP schema.

Item 1 is addressed in #38, and items 2 and 3 are addressed in the PLA FAQ (http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FAQ#Template_FAQs).

All of these things add up to a gigantic pain in the ass for us poor unsuspecting PLA users, but not a PHP 5.3 incompatibility - rather a 1.2 upgrade problem. I think we should look for or open separate bugs for them.
