Symptoms
When invoking the keydbmgr.exe utility, a SBL-DAT-00565 (An internal error has occurred within the authentication subsystem ...) error occurs.Cause
The keydbmgr.exe program is a simple and largely standalone utility that reads database connection information from the .CFG file specified when it is executed. It does not, however, fully integrate with the Siebel Gateway or Enterprise configuration. As a result, it is not capable of loading variable information and instead must be provided with literal (i.e. constants) data in the .CFG file's various parameters.
By default, the various application object manager .CFG files (normally found in /siebsrvr/bin/[language_code]) contain a number of parameters that use variables to reference Enterprise parameter values stored in the Siebel repository. For example:
DataSourceName = $(DefaultDataSource)
Here $(DefaultDataSource) is an enterprise parameter variable. The keydbmgr program requires it to contain the actual, literal value:
DataSourceName = ServerDataSrc
Solution
The solution to this error is to replace all relevant enterprise parameter variables with their constant, literal values. Start by searching the .CFG file keydbmgr is using for all instances of "$(DefaultDataSourceDefaultDataSource)". Replace these with "ServerDataSrc".
Then look at the [ServerDataSrc] section in the .CFG file. You will see a number of enterprise parameter variables in the format $(Variable_Name). Replace all of these with the appropriate values. If you have a working Tools Client or Web Developer Client that points to this same environment, you can pull the necessary values from the specific .CFG file that the Tools or Developer Client uses.
After doing this, save your changes and try the keydbmgr.exe command again.

Siebel Communications Sales + Communications Service - Version: 8.0.0.6 [20423] - Release: V8Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
On : 8.0.0.6 [20423] version, Security / Authentication
When attempting to change the password in "User Profile Default View "
the following error occurs.
ERROR
-----------------------
"SBL-DAT-00565: An internal error has occurred within the authentication subsystem for the Siebel application."
STEPS
-----------------------
The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. Setup an Oracle database profile with a password verify function which checks if passwords are compliant with the security guidelines.
2 Try to change the password in the view "User Profile Default View "which does not comply with the policy.
3. SBL-DAT-00565 error appears.
In previous versions (8.0 and 7.x), user would get the Oracle DB message with the details on why the new password is not accepted.
BUSINESS IMPACT
-----------------------
The issue has the following business impact:
Users are not sure what they did wrong. Oracle message should be passed to the user saying why the new password does not satisfy the security policy.
Cause
When using DB authentication, if password policy is set in Oracle in Siebel 8.0.0.1-8.0.0.8, due to some code change, while changing the password in User Preference Screen, the message that end users receive is not user-friendly:
SBL-DAT-00565: An internal error has occurred within the authentication subsystem for the Siebel application.
The following product defect was logged for this behaviour:
Bug 12-1TXBDA9: Siebel Warning SBL-DAT-00565 is not user friendly when changing password
Solution
The problem reported in the Bug 12-1TXBDA9: Siebel Warning SBL-DAT-00565 is not user friendly when changing password, is present in all patches 8.0.0.1-8.0.0.8. The only time when the ORA error appears is with the main release 8.0.
(Example of an ORA error:
ORA-28003: password verification for the specified password failed
ORA-20001: Password length less than 8)
Possible workaround would be to use scripting to implement password verification same as in utlpwdmg.sql (function Oracle uses for password verification), prior to passing the password to Oracle.

BUG:12-1TXBDA9 - SIEBEL WARNING SBL-DAT-00565 IS NOT USER FRIENDLY WHEN CHANGING PASSWORDApplies to:
Siebel System Software - Version: 8.1.1.1 SIA [21211]Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
In Siebel 8.1, customer was attempting to authenticate with external security adapter authentication (LDAPSecAdpt or ADSISecAdpt). The process was failing in the bind stage with the following error pattern:
Ldap Utility: BindAsAppUser failed due to invalid password, please check the value of ApplicationPassword parameter,
SBL-SEC-10001: An internal error has occurred within the authentication subsystem for the Siebel application. Please contact your system administrator for assistance.
SBL-DAT-00565: An internal error has occurred within the authentication subsystem for the Siebel application. Please contact your system administrator for assistance.
SBL-DAT-00565: An internal error has occurred within the authentication subsystem for the Siebel application. Please contact your system administrator for assistance.
Login failed for Login name : XXXXXX
Cause
There are two common causes of this error.1. The password specified in the ApplicationPassword parameter in your security adapter profile does not match the password for the application user (specified in the ApplicationUserDN parameter) in the LDAP or Active Directory server.
2. The value specified for the ApplicationUserDN parameter does not match a valid user in your LDAP or Active Directory server.
Solution
If the cause is a password mismatch, the solution is to simply update the ApplicationPassword parameter with the correct password. In most cases you will not even need to restart the services. You will just need to create a new clean connection with a new session.
If the cause is an invalid user, first check for typographical errors done when entering the ApplicationUserDN parameter value. If present, correct the errors and test the behavior again.
If the issue is not a typographical error, you will need to confirm the actual fully qualified designated name (DN) of the application user in the external directory. This is the unique value that identifies a given entry in the external directory server and its format can vary depending on external directory used and the configuration of the directory. To determine the actual DN for an entry, check with your directory administrator or view the entry using a third party LDAP browsing tool.
The most common format for DNs on Active Directory looks similar to:
cn=Any User,ou=Siebel,dc=Fake,dc=Oracle,dc=com
With LDAP directories, there is often more flexibility as to what the fields are names and to which field forms the "key" field for determining the DN. Some examples:
uid=Any User,cn=Siebel,o=Fake,o=Oracle.com
cn=Any User,ou=Siebel,dc=Fake,dc=Oracle,dc=com
sn=AUSER,cn=Siebel,o=Fake.Oracle.com
As you can see, the only real way to determine the correct DN is to verify the value in the Directory Server. Normally your Active Directory or LDAP administrator can assist you with this, but if further assistance is necessary please open a service request through My Oracle Support.

Message 2
[Continued 1]Error code 118 was reproducible by Technical Support. During investigation, truss was enabled to collect information from Object Manager process ID and we found that LDAPSecAdpt was trying to use libgsk6ssl.so library instead of libgsk7ssl.so. Based in this information, we installed IBM GSKit version 6.0.4.41 in Solaris 10 machine. After this installation, SSL encryption to LDAP Directory Server worked fine in Technical Support environment. However in customer environment a crash occurred, with unmangled call stack below:

Message 4
[Continued 3]Customer mentioned that during configuration of LDAPSecAdpt with IBM LDAP Client version 6.0, it was required to change LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable and add library path of IBM LDAP Client libraries in order to make LDAPSecAdpt working with no SSL enabled. This was not required in Technical Support environment because IBM LDAP Client version 5.1 was also installed in Solaris 10 Operating System.
Change Request 12-1KWA76R has been opened to update Siebel Security Guide regarding LD_LIBRARY_PATH requires IBM LDAP Client 6.0 library path.
After IBM LDAP Client version 5.1 was uninstalled from test machine, Technical Support was able to reproduce the call stack. The core was generated only when using IBM LDAP Client 6.0. When customer removed IBM LDAP Client 6.0 library path from LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment, and installed IBM LDAP Client version 5.1, SSL between LDAPSecAdpt and LDAP Directory Serve worked fine.
Change Request 12-1KWA78H has been opened to correct SSL between LDAPSecAdpt and LDAP Directory Server using only IBM LDAP Client 6.0 and IBM GSKit 7. The workaround for this CR is to install IBM LDAP Client 5.1, IBM GSKit version 6, and ensure that IBM LDAP Client version 6.0 library path is not available in LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable.
Thank you,

Cause
The cause must be related to incorrect setting in the application .cfg file:
[ServerDataSrc]
DLL = sscddcli.dll
This is not correct for Oracle DB, it should be sscdo90.dll
[ServerDataSrc]
DLL = sscdo90.dll
incorrect dll will cause a failure to connect to the DB.
Solution
After changing the application .cfg:
[ServerDataSrc]
DLL = sscddcli.dll
to
[ServerDataSrc]
DLL = sscdo90.dll
Customer is able to connect using dedicated web client.

Cause
It was found that the customer was using Oracle 10g client, which did not work with Siebel 8.1.1. Customer was advised to install Oracle 11g client and when customer installed Oracle 11.1.0.6 client, it was found that this version does not include the lib32 library.Solution
To workaround the behavior, customer had to install Oracle 11.1.0.7 client.
