    Description

      summary:

      After installing Crowd with Oracle DB, and leaving the description field empty for the internal directory, try to run this query in the Crowd Database:

      select * from cwd_directory where description is null;
      

      You will obtain at least 1 row. You can even try creating a directory with null description, or null User DN, and you will find that the values kept in the cwd_directory and cwd_directory_attribute tables are stored as NULL. This is the root cause of this issue: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CWD-3217

      workaround:
