These errors are often reported on 64-bit Linux machines that use LDAP for directory services, user authentication, etc. It happens when the 32-bit version of the LDAP libraries are not installed. If this is the case, installing the 32-bit versions of the following libraries (RedHat or CentOS) usually resolves this issue:

openldap-2.2.13-4.i386
nss_ldap-226-10.i386

If you see errors like this on Windows, you should install Suite 2012 Update 2, in which this problem is fixed. Alternatively, you can work around this problem by uninstalling the 64-bit version of Maestro and installing the 32-bit version.
