Ever have this happen to you? You make a new OU in OID / OUD / OVD and then when you go to point to it in OAM for a new User Identity Store, you receive the error: “Invalid Identity Store Configuration. The specified user search base is invalid.”

DOH!

You need to make sure there’s at least one user object in the OU. If you look at my directory tree here for cn=00, there’s no leaf nodes under it.

But if you look at cn=22, there’s a user in there. So to OAM, cn=22 will work, but cn=00 won’t. It’s lame, but that’s the deal =). So just make a test user or dummy user in there, then test it out.
