Environment

Novell Identity Manager Identity Manager 3.0
Novell Identity Manager Identity Manager 3.0.1
Novell Identity Manager Identity Manager 3.0.1 User Application

Situation

The LDAP Configuration wizard does not validate that the value specified in the user application administration is a valid user.
It is possible to put a valid OU in that does not point to a user. If this happens the User Application fails to load properly and gives errors about access denied and it is not obvious what the real problem is.

Resolution

This is currently listed as a bug and will be addressed in a future version
