Error description
When you run one of the administrative scripts for synchronizing group memberships, a ClassCastException might occur and the script stops if a group is involved that has exactly one member.
Local fix
Problem summary
IBM BPM uses federated repositories, which are associated with the Virtual Member Manager (VMM), to access user and group information in a user registry. VMM properties can be typed as single-valued or multi-valued. The ClassCastException occurs when the synchronization scripts access the IBM BPM code that incorrectly treats a multi-valued property that has only one value as a single-valued property.
Problem conclusion
A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.5.0 that improves how multi-valued VMM properties are handled in all cases so that the group synchronization scripts can run successfully. On Fix Central (http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), search for JR50441: 1. Select IBM Business Process Manager with your edition from the product selector, the installed version to the fix pack level, and your platform, and then click Continue. 2. Select APAR or SPR, enter JR50441, and click Continue. When you download fix packages, ensure that you also download the readme file for each fix. Review each readme file for additional installation instructions and information about the fix.
