Last updated on AUGUST 30, 2023

Applies to:

Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 10.2.0.4 and later
Oracle Internet Directory - Version 10.1.4 and later
Oracle Database Cloud Schema Service - Version N/A and later

Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

    • Although a user search in OIDDAS shows the uid for each user, when attempting to add new members to a group in DAS, the LOV does not display the uid for the same set of users.

      That is -- login to OIDDAS as orcladmin > click Directory > click Search to search on users. The User ID will be listed for all users.

      Click Groups tab > edit the group > under Members, click Add User > click Search to search on users. The Name will not be listed for most, if any, users.

 

    • All users have the same objectclasses, and the same attributes have values

 

    • The "uid" attribute is populated for all users

 

  • OID Heavy Trace Debug with orcldebugop set to 511 shows "missingEdn" errors in the oidldapd*s*.log:

    BEGIN

    END


  • OC4J~OC4J_SECURITY~default_island~1 shows missing guid values for all the problematic users:
