Bug Description

This is a correct LDAP URL syntax:

   query_users uid
ou=users,dc=example,dc=org?sub?(&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)(employeeType=active))

Code at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~schooltool-owners/schooltool.ldap/trunk/view/head:/src/schooltool/ldap/config.py?sort=filename parses the '(' wrongly after "sub".

You have to remove the closing brackets for it to work, which looks like:

   query_users uid
ou=users,dc=example,dc=org?sub?&(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)(employeeType=active)

Which is wrong.

LDAP URL's are busted and should be as per:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4515
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4516
