Resolution
- This issue has been addressed to engineering
- As a workaround make sure the Access Gateway has access to configured LDAP data sources
Cause
- The Access Gateway Embedded Service Provider (ESP) is trying to connect to LDAP datasource(s) configured for virtual attribute access. This process causes a delay on any configuration change or restart of the embedded service provider
Additional Information
Troubleshooting
- run a LAN trace on the Access Gateway to:
- review any communication with the Access Manager Console for possible failured
- any kind of connection attempt failure (in this case it turned out that the ESP tried accessing LDAP servers)
- Enable File Logging:
Echo To Console,
Component File logger Levels:
