OBIEE 12c - Error in WL EM: User weblogic cannot access his home directory due to mismatched GUIDs.

Question

I am finally able to log into my new 12c installation and was able to get my 11g reports/settings into 12c as well and am in the process of validating things.

From what I can see after a quick run through of the 12c environment, I am not seeing anything unexpected.

I am seeing all the links I expect, "My Folder" in catalog, my reports all seem to render/generate ok.

I took a quick look in my weblogic enterprise manager though and noticed 2 errors (creating seperate thread for second error)

I am getting this error

[User weblogic cannot access his home directory due to mismatched GUIDs.]

Again I am able to login, and so far I dont see any issues but curious if anyone else has seen this? And if so how did you resolve it?

I keep hearing about this for migrated environments but have never had that on one of my migrations so I'm having a hard time telling you precisely WHAT it is.

I can tell you though that killing the /users folder in question and re-initializing the user through a new logon does the trick almost every time. Just make sure to archive his things before you try this.
