LDAP Connection Fails with Metastorm BPM Version 9.0 SR2

The information in this article applies to:

Product: Metastorm BPM
Version: 9.0.2 9.0.2.1 9.0.2.2

 

Issue

  • An LDAP connection is created in the Process Designer, and an LDAP MBO using the connection is used in a grid on a form. The process is deployed. The form fails to open in the web client and generates the following error:

    Failed to execute deployed method 'DataValue', using entity 'Grid1'. Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done.

Resolution

  • This is a known issue (DEF14420). The following is a workaround.

    Access the Metastorm BPM Administrative Tools. Navigate to Connections and remove ;UseDTC=no from the end of Connection Info as shown in the screenshot below. NOTE: If you are using Metastorm BPM 9.0.2 with no hotfix, you will need to install hotfix 1 or 2 in order to see the proper Connection Info.

  • I'm having this same problem, but when I to the "Connections" item in the Administrative Tools, I do not see the Connection Objects I deployed. Any ideas why? I'm running SR2 + Latest Hotfix.

     

    Also, I should mention when I first click on the "Connections" item in the Admnistrative Tools, I am presented with a Messagebox that reads "Error" in the title and the word "sender" in the message area and an OK button.

     

    Thanks,
