Description
When a new "Composite" domain user is added in TDV and was granted"Access Directory" privilege for the TIBCO Business Directory , the login may fail with the "Authentication Failed".
Here is a screenshot for reference:
Root cause: The "composite" domains on each server (Business Directory and each TDV instance) are all completely independent of, (1) They don't share the user namespace (2) There is no co-ordination between servers. Hence, a SITE name needs to be specified as the domain to help partition/address the specific users.
Resolution
Follow the steps below to resolve the issue:
1. Open the TIBCO Business Directory URL. 2. Enter the valid username and password. 3. In the domain field enter the SITE name instead of entering "composite". Example 'localhost_9400' 4. Click on Login.
