Thread:Project:Support desk/Ldap Installation

Product	Version MediaWiki	1.23.5 PHP	5.5.9-1ubuntu4.4 (apache2handler) MySQL	5.5.38-0ubuntu0.14.04.1

Hi all, let me first just say thank you in advance for any help! I'm trying to install the Ldap extension following the guide here: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Running_MediaWiki_on_Ubuntu. More specifically I'm running the following commands from that wiki page:

sudo apt-get install mediawiki-extensions sudo mwenext ParserFunctions.php

I can look in /etc/mediawiki-extensions/extensions-enabled and see that Ldap is one of the extensions listed, but when I go to my MediaWiki web interface, special pages, and then version, I do not see Ldap listed as one of the installed extensions. As a side note, in /var/lib/mediawiki/ the LocalSettings.php file is a symbolic link to /etc/mediawiki/LocalSettings.php but there is no LocalSettings.php file in the /etc/mediawiki directory. What obvious thing am I missing? Thank you again.
