"IllegalArgumentException" when accessing IGA 14.5 Identity Manager directly via IP address

Products

• CA Identity Suite

Issue/Introduction

Users accessing the Identity Manager (IM) console directly via the appliance IP address may encounter an IllegalArgumentException. This occurs because direct IP access bypasses the configured web server and Siteminder authentication layer.

Environment

Component : Identity Suite Virtual Appliance

Resolution

This issue is resolved by applying Hotfix HF_IMS-14.5.1-20260824153203-DE687902.tgz.gpg. This patch updates the application to handle direct access requests without triggering the IllegalArgumentException.
