APM with OpenLDAP

Hi,

 

I want to test the APM module in my lab. I can authenticate from OpenLDAP when I login the F5. So my OpenLDAP is working. Now I configure the APM and use my OpenLDAP server as a authentication server. After configuration when I want to authenticate via access profiles it is not working. I'm getting following error in "Access Policy-->Reports-->General reports-->all Messages". How can I fix the auth problem?

    Can APM reach LDAP?
