Error 533 in Active Directory LDAP

Question

I am trying to configure Active Directory (AD LDS) for use with my application. I am using ForeignJNDIProvider in Weblogic app server to configure the settings for AD. From my Java based application, I do a lookup on InitialContext as shown below:

InitialContext iCtx = new InitialContext();
DirContext dir = (DirContext) iCtx.lookup(<JNDI name>);

The second code line above fails with the following error:

javax.naming.AuthenticationException: [LDAP: error code 49 - 8009030C: LdapErr: DSID-0C0903A9, comment: AcceptSecurityContext error, data 533, v1db1 ]

I tried looking up what error 533 in AD meant. The only answer I got was that it meant "Account Disabled". I am not sure this is the case. How can I fix this?

Answer 1

Got it...solved the problem by changing the value for attribute msDS-UserAccountDisabled to false. AD accounts when created are disabled by default. Resource: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725934

Answer 2

For me, the error was in the attribute "userAccountControl". I had to change it from 546 (ACCOUNTDISABLE | PASSWD_NOTREQD | NORMAL_ACCOUNT) to 512 (NORMAL_ACCOUNT). Also see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305144/de
