LDAP search failed: No such object

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
the plugin's configuration is:

<LDAP>
        URL             ldap://xxxxx
        BindDN           uid=xxxxx,dc=xxx,dc=xxx
        Password         xxxxxxx
        Timeout         15
        TLSEnable       no
        FollowReferrals no
        TLSCACertFile   /usr/local/etc/ssl/ca.pem
        TLSCACertDir    /etc/ssl/certs
        TLSCertFile     /usr/local/etc/ssl/client-cert.pem
        TLSKeyFile      /usr/local/etc/ssl/client-key.pem
</LDAP>
<Authorization>
        BaseDN          "ou=xxx,dc=xxx,dc=xxx"
        SearchFilter    "(&(uid=%u)(accountStatus=active))"
        RequireGroup    false
        <Group>
                BaseDN          "ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com"
                SearchFilter    "(|(cn=developers)(cn=artists))"
                MemberAttribute uniqueMember
        </Group>
</Authorization>

I am sure that all values are correct, because using an equivalent ldapsearch 
command, ldap server responds with the correct entry.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
the expected should be a login success message. But the following log comes 
("LDAP search failed: No such object" and then "No remote address supplied to 
OpenVPN LDAP Plugin (OPENVPN_PLUGIN_CLIENT_CONNECT)."):

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using openvpn-auth-ldap 2.0.3-6 with openvpn.i686 2.3.2-2, installed on 
CentOS-6 from the epel repository.

Please provide any additional information below.
when providing wrong user password or no-existing user (in this example - 
"asdf"), plugin outputs correctly ... which shows that there is no bind or 
wrong attribute problem and ldap responds correctly !!!
