OIM User Creation : An Error occurred while performing create user operation. Unable to get LDAP connection
This post covers an issue that I encountered on Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) while creating new user in OIM. Error I received on screen was “Error occurred while performing create user operation. Unable to get LDAP connection, and the root cause is – null“. OIM during installation or later can be integrated with LDAP server using LDAPSync . More on LDAP Sync here, here, and here
- On user creation in OIM, LDAPSync should create this user in LDAP Server as well.
If you hit this problem then check error in OIM diagnostic logs at $DOMAIN_HOME/servers/[oim_server1]/logs

- If you hit error like above then check IT Resource (Manage IT Resource) in OIM Advanced Administration Console
- Search for IT Resource Type Directory Server and change Connection Pooling Supported to False (This issue seems to be fixed in OIM BP03)
