    * ART fails to connect and configure itself when a user tries  *
    * to use an Oracle Directory Server with it. The configuration *
    * cannot be saved and hence LDAP users cannot login to ART.    *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    * Upgrade to ART version 8.1.5.2.                              *
    ****************************************************************
    

Problem conclusion

  • Upgrade to ART version 8.1.5.2. The Oracle Directory Server can
    be configured to work with ART and the LDAP users will be able
    to login into ART.
