Error Initializing User/Role API : Null.. (Doc ID 1519272.1)

Last updated on OCTOBER 17, 2023

Applies to:

Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

You are trying to add the groups as part of the Authorization Policy -> Constraints. However, you are unable to perform the search on groups against OVD directory. On the other hand, OAM authentication against same OVD directory works fine.

You have tried an ldapsearch command on the group name and the group returned successfully:

$ ldapsearch -b <LDAP_BASE_DN> -h <LDAP_HOSTNAME> -p <LDAP_PORT_NUMBER> -D cn=<LDAP_SUPERUSER> "(&(objectclass=*)(cn=<LDAP_USERNAME>))" -q
Please enter bind password:
cn=<LDAP_USERNAME>,cn=Groups,ou=<LDAP_DN> 

Performed 'Test Connection' with all data sources, all successful. Moreover Authentication works fine. We get this error only when we try to do search on group names from the Authorization Policy-> Constraints


AdminServer-diagnostic.log shows that for some reason OAM thinks it unable to connect to OVD store.
