* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The UserProfile Manager configuration is picked up from a file
titled userprofile.xml in the WebSphere -Root/properties
directory.
In 4.0 this file needs to be manually created and if some of the
attributes have spaces around in them, the UserProfile
Initialization fails.
Problem conclusion
The problem has been fixed by trimming certain values that are
picked up from the userprofile.xml file by the
UserProfileManager during initialization.
