symptom

In DSTRACE, DirXML could not get the application schema from Active Directory.

fact

Novell DirXML 1.1

Windows 2000 Active Directory

Novell Remote Loader for Active Directory

change

A test bed was setup using two Dell Laptops, one with NW6, and one with w2K. Everything installed and was running fine with one exception. When attempting to open the schema mapping rule with ConsoleOne, it displayed a -288 error.

We could successfully create and modify users with no problem on both sides: eDir or AD. We were also running the remote loader on the w2k server with client 4.83e using the May version of the addriver.dll.

Attempting to read schema from the Schema Mapping Rule on the AD Driver... We consistently received the message on the NW6 trace screen as follows:

"Message= com.novell.nds.dirxml.remote.connectionClosedException: No Document received"
"DirXML Driver Initialization Error!"
Waiting 2 minutes for the Java thread to time out results in:
"Unable to bind DirXML Driver<\Big_Tree\Novell\Dal\dirXMLdriverSet\ADDriver>.DirXML Driver Worker Thread Unable to bind driver, exiting.

cause

There is a bug in the remote loader wither it may not handle large schema documents correctly.

fix

DirXML 1.1a has the fix for this.
