Some users cannot login and they Encounter "Invalid Credentials" Messages in WebCenter Content (Doc ID 2119452.1)

Last updated on MARCH 05, 2024

Applies to:

Oracle WebCenter Content - Version 11.1.1.8.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

Some users cannot login in WebCenter Content. The login request runs for awhile until the user encounters a "Invalid Credentials" message.  Used Note 1391714.1 to enable authentication tracing.

 

The tracing revealed that group membership searching is searching the same groups repeatedly (i.e., the following log entries were repeated several times).
