Issue/Introduction

When SiteMinder 12.8.06 is started we are seeing the following error messages:

Environment

Release : 12.8.06

Component : SITEMINDER -POLICY SERVER

Cause

This happen only when PostgreSQL database server is used as a SiteMinder store

The error is benign and does not affect Policy Server functionality.
