Enabling a User through OIM API

Question

Hi I am trying to enable a user through OIM API, However the end date is already passed for that user, I am setting up a new end date through the Program (showm below). However the update user is not working (i am not sure).
Map usermap = new HashMap();
usermap.put("Users.User ID", User_id );
Map grpmap = new HashMap();
grpmap.put("Groups.Group Name", Group_Name);
tcResultSet ts = userClient.findUsers(usermap); //find all users
String existing_end_date = ts.getStringValue("Users.End Date");
tcResultSet tg = groupClient.findGroups(grpmap); //find requireq group
long ukey = ts.getLongValue("Users.Key");
long gkey = tg.getLongValue("Groups.Key"); //find group key
// ENABLE THE USER
java.util.Date new_end_date = new java.util.Date(111,1,1);
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(new_end_date);
DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss");
String Str1 = dateFormat.format(cal.getTime());
String Str2 = existing_end_date + " 12:00:00";
System.out.println(User_id+" OLD End Date:" + Str2 + " New End Date: " + Str1);
Map usermap2 = new HashMap();
usermap2.put("Users.User ID", User_id );
usermap2.put("Users.End Date", Str1);
userClient.updateUser(ts,usermap2);
userClient.enableUser(ukey);
I am getting the following error:
U0000018 OLD End Date:2009-09-30 12:00:00 New End Date: 2011-02-01 12:00:00

WARNING: Exception returned by remote server: {0}
Thor.API.Exceptions.tcAPIException: The user cannot be enabled because the end date is passed.
Not sure why it is happening. It looks like the Updateuser is not working, or something else?
Please advise. Thanks in advance.

Hi Suren,
thanks for the note.
I found that as soon as I enable the user, I am getting the followimg messages in the opmn logs:
INFO,06 Dec 2010 10:55:41,841,[XELLERATE.JAVACLIENT],System Event Handler: Validating Organization for an User.
INFO,06 Dec 2010 10:55:41,944,[XELLERATE.JAVACLIENT],System Event Handler: Triggering Processes related to User.

So, the access policies are getting evaluated, triggering provisioning processes.
What I am planning to do is, to disable the access policies and try to run the Program.
Because of this issue, my Program is throwing an error (until I looked into the opmn logs, it doesn't make sense).
