JPS-02592: Failed to push ldap config data to libOvd for service instance "idstore.ldap"

Problem:

Our weblogic server would not start because of the following error:

 PM oracle.security.jps.internal.igf.ovd.OvdIGFServiceProvider pushLdapNamesTolibOvd

SEVERE: JPS-02592

Solution:

Weblogic server was unresponsive initialy because the server ran out of disk space. When we added more disk space to the server, the error occurred.

When I took a look at the file "adapters.os_xml" at $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/ovd/default, I saw that it was empty. Not sure why, I could only guess that the file got corrupted when the server ran out of space.

My solution was to copy the original template from $MW_HOME/oracle_common/modules/oracle.ovd_11.1.1/templates to $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/ovd/default.

Fix:

Take a backup of $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/ovd/default/adapters.os_xml
Delete $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/ovd/default/adapters.os_xml
Copy adapters.os_xml from $MW_HOME/oracle_common/modules/oracle.ovd_11.1.1/templates/ to $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/ovd/default/
Restart the server.
