Failed connector settings test. Request timed out.
The Active Directory LDAP AFX connector log, $AFX_HOME/esb/logs/esb.AFX-CONN-{connector-name}.log, shows the following error.
2016-12-12 11:19:52.205 [ERROR] org.mule.module.launcher.application.DefaultMuleApplication:361
- null java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.aveksa.common.tls.SSLContextFactory
The AFX mule log file, $AFX_HOME/esb/logs/mule_ee.log, has a corresponding error:
ERROR 2016-12-12 11:19:52,478 [Mule.app.deployer.monitor.1.thread.1]

org.mule.module.launcher.DeploymentStartException: ClassNotFoundException:
com.aveksa.common.tls.SSLContextFactory
The same connector configured to connect over port 389 (non-SSL connection) is able to connect.
Cause
The key errors are the java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: and ClassNotFoundException: errors in the AFX log files. This error occurs due to a missing class file in the mmc-console class path.
