OUD to Active Directory (AD) - Unable to Synchronize Multi-byte Values (Doc ID 2396404.1)

Last updated on DECEMBER 15, 2022

Applies to:

Oracle Internet Directory - Version 11.1.1.9.0 to 12.2.1.3.0 [Release 11g to 12c]
Oracle Unified Directory - Version 11.1.2.3.0 to 12.2.1.3.0 [Release 11g to 12c]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

When doing data synchronization between OUD and Active Directory (AD) using DIP and modifying user attributes of OUD to multi-byte characters, it will result in an error in DIP and can not be synchronized.

I.E.

Run ldapmodify to change the user entry attribute value to multi-byte characters -

# ldapmodify -D cn=directory\ manager -w <PASSWORD>
dn: uid=oracle0001,ou=people,dc=SUFFIX_DN
changetype: modify
replace: givenName
givenName: あいうえお

modifying entry uid=oracle0001,ou=people,dc=SUFFIX_DN
#

 

At that time, the following error is output to the DIP log.


<DIP log>
