Error description

• After you apply interim fix JR48172 and try to synchronize users
  by using the Process Admin Console, you receive the following
  exception:
  
  java.lang.NoSuchMethodError:
    com/lombardisoftware/client/delegate/SecurityDelegate.
      syncUsers(Ljava/util/List;)V
  at com.lombardisoftware.servlet.util.manager.SyncUserOrgRM.
    execute(SyncUserOrgRM.java:56)
  at com.lombardisoftware.servlet.ControllerServlet.processPost
    (ControllerServlet.java:627)
  at com.lombardisoftware.servlet.ControllerServlet.doCommon
    (ControllerServlet.java:513)
  at com.lombardisoftware.servlet.ControllerServlet.doPost
    (ControllerServlet.java:141)
  

Local fix

• Use the usersSync or usersFullSync command to synchronize users.
  For more information, see ?Synchronizing users?
  (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSFPJS_8.5.5/com.ibm
  .wbpm.admin.doc/topics/sync_users.html?lang=en).
  

Problem summary

• With JR52436, the signature of method
  SecurityDelegate.syncUsers() was changed by adding a return
  value to that method. Unfortunately, not all callers of this
  method were packaged with JR52436. The missing callers still
  expect that method SecurityDelegate.syncUsers() has no return
  value.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.5.0.1 that contains the
  missing callers of SecurityDelegate.syncUsers().
