Symptoms

Dropdowns fail to display correct information on various screens in 10.1.4 Oracle Directory Manager.


How to reproduce the problem:

1. Create multiple subschemas. Follow the instructions the Oracle Internet Directory Administrator's Guide 10g (10.1.4.0.1) > 11.1 About the Directory Schema
   
   Here is a sample LDIF that can be used to reproduce this problem:
   

1. Add the contents of that LDIF to OID using ldapadd.
2. Using Oracle Directory Manager (oidadmin), go to any screen containing a drop-down where attributes can be selected.
   
   For example:
   
   1. Go to "Access Control Management" to edit a subtree control point.
   2. Go to "Create via Wizard" for Content Access Items.
   
   The search criteria box on the first screen only allows selection of user attribute types from one of the subschema entries -- it should allow selection from any.
   
   This problem also afflicts drop-downs on numerous other screens in Oracle Directory Manager.
