7021072: LDAP sync stops if a user has an attribute with no value

Micro Focus Vibe 4.0.3

During LDAP sync against GroupWise as the directory, the sync process may stop if it encounters a user that has an empty value for an attribute that is being mapped in Vibe. For example, if a user’s email address was empty the LDAP sync would report this problem in the appserver.log and stop.

When this happens, the following error will appear in the appserver.log file:

2017-05-16 12:51:37,863 ERROR [http-nio2-8443-exec-4] [org.kablink.teaming.module.ldap.impl.LdapModuleImpl] – An error was encountered syncing users. Ldap sync will not continue.
