ClassNotFoundException during LDAP Synchronization

Q&A

Hello,

I am trying to synchronize LDAP with Bonita. I am using BonitaBPMSubscription-6.3.5 in Windows.

When I execute BonitaBPMSubscription-6.3.5-LDAP-Synchronizer.bat, I get the next exception:

…

I have searched but I did not found this class. Can anyone help with it?

Thanks in advance.

Hi haris.subasic,

thanks for your comment. After a while this morning, I could see where the problem was.

The solution was this paragraph:

“Additionally, within the /bonita_home-6.0.x/client/conf/ directory modify the bonita-client.properties file to indicate how LDAP Synchronizer will connect to the Portal to add the LDAP users.”

Hello,
since you are using Subscription edition, you shouldn’t hesitate to open a case to Bonitasoft Support on your customer portal.
Make sure that you are using a dedicated bonita.home for your LDAP Synchronizer and the type of server access (check the documentation here ).
