Got message 49 error when bind to LDAP server

sowing

I am trying to bind to a LDAP server, but failed.
Code as follow:

After running the script the result is:

Return code: 49 Message: LDAP_INVALID_CREDENTIALS :The wrong password was supplied or the SASL credentials could not be processed
MessageID: 2 DN:

For "pass" and "user" match each other well, so the error may cauesd by SASL credentials, but i don't know the TRUE reason.
I appreciate Any advice, thanks.

The error certainly points out that credentials provided were wrong. May be you forgot to escape some special characters in username/password!
It is always preferable to use single-quotes over double-quotes, when you are passing literal string (without any substitutions). You can also avoid escaping all those special meaning characters.
