You are not even telling others what instructions you are following, how do you expect others to know what "next step" is? And again, "not working" means little to others - explain the exact .

Assuming that you're using MS Active Directory Server as the LDAP provider, I can see few of issues with the Tomcat settings.
1. You have specified "connectionPassword", but not "connectionUser". Does the LDAP server require authentication to browse the LDAP tree? Or anonymous access is allowed?
2. You may try userSearch="(sAMAccountName={0})" instead of using "uid", depending on what you are going to use as the "log in".
3. The "roleSearch" parameter looks suspicious. Are you really sure your LDAP server has an attribute called "memberNotAvailablexxx"?

To understand your LDAP server better, I suggest you use an LDAP client such as the ldp.exe tool provided by Microsoft to and have a play on the LDAP server.

 Hi Donald Nong,

 I made the changes as per your suggestion ,but now I am getting this error
ID CRJAZ1845E.  saying Although the new user was created successfully, an error occurred while trying to assign the Client Access License keys to the new user.



Donald Nong commented May 20 '15, 2:50 a.m.

It appears that the LDAP issue is resolved and you get a different one. How about if you open the new user profile and assign the license there?

 Hi Donald Nong, 

Know the LDAP issue is solve , I can import user into project, but they are unable to login into the application by using there windows credentials.


Donald Nong commented May 21 '15, 5:02 a.m.

The fact that you can import users into project only proves that the LDAP settings in JTS are correct. You may still need to double check the LDAP settings in Tomcat. What is the error message when the user cannot log on CLM?

See my original answer. I'm not convinced that the settings are correct.
