Dee, What version are you running? If it is AR System 8.1.x, read on. There is a bug in the 8.1.x that causes too many TCP connections to open, in the thousands, and causes plugins to start failing in such a way as you are seeing. Our LDAP was the first to go, then ARDBC, and so on. I had to get

It probably means it's not loading a password and the NullPointerException is from the String constructor. It's poor coding, ie. char[] c= retrievePasswordAsCharArray(); // Forget to check if c is null String password= new String(c); ___

Ok, the top of the stack is happening in decryptPassword method, and it's giving a null pointer exception. This tells me that in your LDAP config form, you haven't specified a password for the user that you are using to do the integration, can you confirm? On Tue, Apr 15, 2014 at 8:49 AM, Dee w

Both of these are from the Distributed Server ("ARDS" in the error code) . First thing I would check is your licensing to make sure you have the AR Distributed Server listed. Fred From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Ochavillo, Rafael
