  So it turns out there's now 2 different web consoles available for different individuals.

OIM DesignConsole error: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/ejb/CreateException

  You may notice the following error when you try and start up OIM design console:

HOW TO: create a GTC Flat file HR import (Trusted Recon)

  With the intention to import many flat files in the future, I have created a stagingDR directory (with my initials included knowing that if I forget in the future, I know I created that) and within that directory I created another directory called Imports. This is where I will be dropping my data feed so OIM can acknowledge the file and import it.

HOW TO: Construct non-trusted Reconciliation OIM 11g with OID 11G LDAP

  Here is how to create a non-trusted reconciliation by using Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) 11.2.0.0 (11gR2) and Oracle Identity Directory (OID) 11.1.1.6.

OIM 11g GTC trusted Reconciliation - Flat File Feed

  I created the required steps to create a trusted Reconciliation and posted this on youtube back later 2012. I was just tired on following the Oracle documentation without them proof reading and making sure it works correctly. To counter this lazy approach that Oracle makes, I decided to make a video on this.

Starting up OIM managed server: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

  Most people you will come across understand that the java arguments -ms, -mx, PermSize, MaxPermSize etc. need to be set in order for there to be sufficient java memory allocation for Oracle Identity Manager 11g to run. OIM 11g compared to OIM 10g requires a tremendous amount of java allocation. More often than not, when you're running your job schedulers, process forms, or even starting up the system, you may experience "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space". No worries, here are the simple steps to resolve the issue.

OIM OIA Integration issue: Unable to get current Data Collection Session ID

  Whilst connecting OIM with OIA, you may receive an error stating that you cannot receive the 'current Data Collection Session ID'. OIM data collection scheduler has to be enabled, which by default it is, though you may be experiencing the following error whilst attempting to import the usr or application data.

OIM Installation: ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more info

  ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more info

ORA-02095: specified initialization parameter cannot be modified

  After identifying that the registered control files are incorrect (after receiving the ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more info error) though after executing the system set control files, I would receive and ORA-02095: specified initialization parameter cannot be modified error

OIM11gR2 PS2 installation error: OPatch failed with error code 73

  The OIM11gR2 PS2 installation is 95% difference with the OIM11gR2 procedural installation. I was however aware that SOA patch is mandatory for the installation of OIM. When I executed the following command, I would receive the following error:

oim-config.xml was not found in MDS Repository

  Unable to find keystore "default-keystore.jks" in /config/fmwconfig/.

OIM 11g/AD connector: The value for a key [IT Resource Name] is not defined in the provided map

  When starting work with the OIM/AD connector and following the step by step processes on and updated (yet incomplete) OIM/AD integrated documentation, I noticed I was getting the following error:

OIM 11g/AD connector: The value for a key [Host] is not defined in the provided map

  When starting work with the OIM/AD connector and following the step by step processes on and updated (yet incomplete) OIM/AD integrated documentation, I noticed I was getting the following error:

Preparing the OIM 11g Custom Plugin files within JDeveloper

  This blog below outlines the file structure recommended for your plugin for your custom scheduled task within an OIM environment.

How to unregister a custom plugin in OIM 11g

  Very simple step on how to unregister your custom plugin

HOW TO: Manually import the metadata for OIM 11g custom plugins

  It took my a while to determine why my custom-made scheduled tasks were not showing up after following the new 11g 'how to create a scheduled task via plugin'. Turns out the META-INF folder is an optional which contains the metadata (task definition). If you don't have this file, you need to import the metadata file into the MDS manually.

OIM Issue: MDS-91020: "OIMMetadata" is not available in server "oim_server1"

  MDS-91020: MDS Application runtime MBean for "OIMMetadata" is not available in server "oim_server1". Ensure server name and application name are correct. "exportMetadata" operation failure.

Plugin registering utility - java.lang.NullPointerException

  When running the plugin utility, I would discover the following java null exception:

WLSTException: java.lang.SecurityException: MBean operation access denied

  When trying to export the metadata, probably using something such as exportMetadata(application='OIMMetadata',server='oim_server1',toLocation='/home/oracle/Oracle/Middleware/tmp'), I would receive the following error:

MDS-91020: MDS Application runtime MBean for "OIMMetadata" is not available in server "oim_server1".

  MDS-91020: MDS Application runtime MBean for "OIMMetadata" is not available in server "oim_server1". Ensure server name and application name are correct. "importMetadata" operation failure

OIM Issue: Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jrf.PortabilityLayerException

  When running a java code, I would receive the following error: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jrf.PortabilityLayerException

OIM 11g:The value for a key [IT Resource Name] is not defined in the provided map

  Came across this issue when attempting a recon with Active Directory into OIM 11g

icfcommon.exceptionException: The value for a key [Host] is not defined in he provided map

  Experienced a failed recon event between Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) and Active Directory. The following error was displayed:

  Error occurred when trying to connector to the Active Directory Connector Server

LoggedIn userKey 'null' OR the passed user key 'null' is coming as NULL

  LoggedIn userKey 'null' OR the passed user key 'null' is coming as NULL

OIM 11g Error: IAM-3050021:The user with the key null does not exist.:null

  After only seeing 2 results in google, with no answers. I decided to consume up my Saturday night to resolve this issue

HOW TO: Configure OIM 11g AD/LDAP Authentication

  As always, you often find yourself scrummaging through the oracle documentation and google for hours to discover the procedural steps, which realistically should only be a 20 min job

  This error would occur within Oracle Identity Manager (OIM) 11g when selecting specific schedule tasks within the Admin GUI, I would receive an java.lang.VirtualMachineError

OIM issues: An error occurred while deploying plug-in to OIM

  Installer, I would often receive the following popup error, An error occurred while deploying plug-in to OIM.

OIM AD Issue - javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Remote host closed connection during handshake

  Despite that the vague error, Remote host closed connection during handshake, maybe a result of multitude of possible reasons, the reason why this is occurring is because the remove client is dropping the connection. I notice this issue once the WLS admin was restarted after the schedule task became unresponsive and remaining in the Interrupt status despite that I bounced the WLS managed server.

OIM AD 11g Issue - The server does not support the requested critical extension

  The critical extension is the setting within you Active Directory when you're reconciling or provisioning using SSL.

OIM 11g Recon Error - Caused By: java.lang.InstantiationError java.lang.VirtualMachineError

  While integrating OIM 11g with the ICF connector resource for reconciliation, I would often get the following error, javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.InstantiationError: java.lang.VirtualMachineError after a couple of attempts:

SOLUTION OIM 11g - Data is Stale. Operation cannot be continued

  Often this issue occurs when you're trying to delete an old scheduled task or if you're performing an operation with a schedule task that may otherwise should be working though obviously it doesn't.

OIM Deployment Export issue - javax.servlet.ServletException: java.lang.NullPointerException

  When you get this issue, you must first close the browser. Any other actions you perform without closing the browser will ultimately close.

ConnectorServer.exe Error: 0 : Exception occured starting connector server

  Once reviewed within the connector server logs, I would see the following error: ConnectorServer.exe Error: 0 : Exception occured starting connector server
