Just answered this on another question.  LDAP requires an external library in addition to the module as mentioned here: http://php.net/manual/en/ldap.requirements.php  The other issue is that LDAP is not normally provided in the standard PHP and you may have to compile your own version of PHP to enable it as mentioned here: http://php.net/manual/en/ldap.installation.php
1) You asked about Ubuntu 14.04 + LDAP...

Ubuntu 14.04.4 EOL'ed August 2016.

Ubuntu 14.04.5 EOLed April 2019.

The LDAP packages are super old, like probably around 2014 or earlier.

Likely best to install Ubuntu Bionic + LDAP as your starting point, so you aren't hitting some bug that's been fixed for 5-6+ years.

2. You asked Can we edit documents online like GoogleDrive?

Best start a new thread about this, as this can require a complex setup, depending on many factors.

Best keep a thread to one topic.
