SYMPTOMS
When you set up a new AUO instance to connect to an existing Membership directory, the following error message occurs:
CAUSE
When the AUO wizard attempts to create the MemProxyUser account in the Membership directory, it fails. This happens because the Membership Instance Creation Wizard is set to pass only two required attributes (cn and guid) to the Membership directory. The error message occurs when the cn=member class in the Admin, Schema container has required attributes other than cn and guid. This issue only occurs if the default schema is modified.
WORKAROUND
Use one of the following methods to work around this problem:
- Do not use mandatory attributes. Instead, enforce mandatory business rules in the program code that uses the Membership directory.-OR-
- Remove all the user-defined mandatory flags and add a new AUO instance.-OR-
- Use a different class attribute for your members instead of the default Member class.
