CA Identity Manager on Linux 64-bit with SiteMinder Connectivity Errors

The installer reports errors with CA Identity Manager on Linux 64 bit when "Connect to SiteMinder" is selected. The required agent configuration is not correct in SiteMinder

Important! Do the workaround steps before deploying any directory/environment.

Workaround

  1. Remember the Agent name and password you provided during the installation. Alternately you can read the value for "AgentName" property from the following:
    \IdentityMinder.ear\policyserver.rar\META-INF\ra.xml
    
  2. Open the SiteMinder WAM User Interface and create an agent with the Agent name. Verify that you select the "4.x agent" check box.
  3. Start the application server and verify that you do not see policy server connectivity issues.

    You should see a line like the following without any exceptions:

    13:40:43,156 WARN  [default] * Startup Step 2 : Attempting to start PolicyServerService
