A similar attempt utilizing ImportExportUtil.bat results in an error

Environment

Release : 14.x

Component : IdentityMinder(Identity Manager)

Cause

There can be different causes, from orphan link to tasks / roles to missing approval policies.

Resolution

Increasing the logging level for ims.jdbc category to DEBUG will write to the log all the queries done on the database.

Inspect the latest item exported (role / task / screen etc) and inspect that item in Identity Manager - if the task is associated with a no longer relevant item (role which is no longer define, for example).

If the role in question in Provisioning Role, inspect the relevant role using Provisioning Manager and ensure the name is an exact match and all the associated account templates exist. If the name in IM and in Provisioning Manager is not identical, we should

1. Delete the role using Provisioning Manager
2. Create the role using Provisioning Manager with the exact same name as it appears in Identity Manager UI
