Hi Emmanuel, My apologies for not providing more info. I received a LdapNameNotFoundException, this exception is triggered when i add an OperationContext to the partition nexus using - directoryService.getPartitionNexus().add(new AddOperationContext(directoryService.getAdminSession(), entry)); Would appreciate if you could help to validate the steps i did in creating a partition. Thanks in advance.
