CA AA Adapter AFM says profile name is invalid

Products

• CA Advanced Authentication
• CA API Gateway

Issue/Introduction

We have installed and configured CA Advanced Authentication v 9.0.0 to work with CA SSO. However, when we try to access protected resource, error log indicates that "Profile name received by AFM is invalid."  How to fix the issue?

Environment

CA AA 9.x

Cause

This issue will happen if someone copies over the old arcotafm.properties file or they have deployed the old arcotafm.war file to carry forward the customizations they have done previously.

Resolution

Deploy the arcotafm.war file which comes after installing the CA Adapter and use the arcotafm.properties file which is generated after running the ArcotAFMWizard.
