Issue/Introduction

When logging into Web Administrator from the browser getting "Error: Invalid DN Syntax invalid DN", how can I address this error?

Environment

Release:
Component: TSSWEB

Resolution

The "Error: Invalid DN Syntax invalid DN" can be caused by an invalid suffix coded in the ACF2_config.xml or TSS_config.XML, specifically no "host=" specified in the ldapsuffix statement.

Sample ldapsuffix statement:

<ldapsuffix>host=yourhostname_im,o=company,c=us</ldapsuffix>

Note that the host=yourhostname_im,o=company,c=us specified in the ACF2_config.xml or TSS_config.XML file must match the "suffix" that is specified in the CA LDAP Server slapd.conf file.
