Issue

• Sometimes, BRM (i.e. Guvnor) does not allow users to log-in, even with correct credentials. BRM is configured to use LdapExtLoginModule for authenticating users through LDAP . Looking at the server.log it throws the following exception during the time it attempts to authenticate the user. Is there a way to find out where the problem lies?
