Situation

During the Integrated Install of IDM 4.0.1 into an existing tree, the installation may fail with the following error:

The following mandatory inputs not present

Therefore aborting the configuration.


Resolution

Novell has a fix and a workaround for this issue.
The fix for this issue will be available in a future release of Identity Manager Integrated Installer.

The workaround is as follows:

1) Copy installer to writable media.
2) Open file <iso_root>/install/propfiles/configure_existing_tree.properties
3) Rename the field IA_IDVAULT_EXISTING_IP_ADDRESS to IA_IDVAULT_EXISTING_IP_ADDRESS_VISIBLE
4) Provide IP address to existing eDirectory server.
5) Launch integrated installer from the writable media.
