Hi,

I have tried to automatically create users that login to PRPC in Pega 7.2.2 and have followed the pdf document here: https://pdn.pega.com/documents/authentication-pegarules-process-commander-v53. I have attached my LDAP settings that it said where required to ensure that new users where created.

I am able to login through the LDAP connection as I have a user associated with that account in the Designer Studio but my coworkers are not able to. When they try to, I receive the following stacktrace (the first error is an intentional incorrect password attempt on a new users account) :
