Possible cause of this error is though you have configured the WebLogic Diagnostic Framework (WLDF) watches and notifications, but the ADR (Automatic Diagnostic Repository) directory is missing from the library path or the server is not able to access the path.

To fix the above issue it is recommended to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to “MW_HOME/wlserver_10.3/server/adr” when using ADR to package WLDF incidents.

Please follow below steps to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH

1. Edit the startup script for the Admin Server and append the following directory to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable:

${MW_HOME}/wlserver_10.3/server/adr

2. Clear tmp and cache folders and restart the server.
