Ldapjs search in production doesn't work

I’m creating a desktop app with Electron, I use ldapjs to create a connection to Actice Directory Domain Service (ADDS). When I test the app in development environment everything work, but when I create an .exe the method bind works but search always return an empty array.

Search code:

const client = ldapjs.createClient({ url: credentials.LDAP_NAME, reconnect: true });
client.bind(credentials.USER_NAME, credentials.PASSWORD, (err) => {
   if (err) {
     return err;
   };
   const results = [];
   client.search(config.DN, options, [], (err, res) => {
      res.on('searchEntry', (entry) => {
        results.push(entry.object);
      });
      res.on('searchReference', (referral) => {
        console.log(`referral: ${referral.uris.join()}`);
      });
      res.on('error', (err) => {
        console.log(`error: ${err.message}`);
        if (err) {
          client.destroy();
          resolve(results);
        }
      });
      res.on('end', (result) => {
        console.log(result.status);
        client.destroy();
        resolve(results);
      });
    });
});

When I get console logs the result is 0 and array results is []

This repo is pretty much abandoned last I knew, you can check out ldapts for a new & typescript version. https://github.com/ldapts/ldapts#readme

Maybe that’s the reason, because today I was testing ldapts library (which supports 8.15+) and everything work fine.

What do you think? I should be use this library and try to downgrade the node version or use the other library (it’s a recent project, I’m afraid about bugs)

How did you solve it?
