LDAPSocketOpenError: socket connection error while opening: [Errno 111] Connection refused

Please can someone help with this?

this usually means you're trying to connect on a port your server doesn't have open/isn't listening on, or that a firewall is in your way.

ex: "ldap://" defaults to port 389, "ldaps://" defaults to 636. some servers (like oracle unified directory) use different ports like 1389 and 1636. your firewall could also be blocking traffic and need an allowlist rule added.

this isn't really a library issue, it's a server config issue
