LDAP Upload error - "the element was not expected at location"

[Dan Munns]

Hi all,

I have created a new LDAP import to pick up users in a specific OU. It works fine for most users but some (6 in this case) are not created with the following error message:

Unable to Create User: The element <password> was not expected at location '/methodCall/params/password'

Does anyone have any ideas?

Sorry for the tags but this is quite urgent as it has failed to create a user I need to test log in with tomorrow morning. 

Thanks 

Dan

@Dan Munns one of these mappings is missing (screenshot from our wiki):

       "UserId":"[sAMAccountName]",
       "UserType":"user",
       "Name":"[cn]",

 ...most likely the name... 

EDIT:  ... "name" is a mandatory parameter for users in Hornbill, if this is missing when doing LDAP import you would get this type of error...

@Victor yep it was missing sn and givenName so at least one is obviously a mandatory field (I am guessing it will be sn)

Time to have words with the accounts administrator I guess.....

@Dan Munns war of the words?
