MSAD error for Create_User statement

Question

I am trying to use MaxL to create users using MSAD external authentication. We do not use shared services. I have added users in the active directory. but when I run the MaxL Create User command
create user 'userid' type external with protocol 'MSAD' identified by 'OU=USERS, OU=______, DC=_____, DC=___';
I get the following error:
Statement executed with warnings.
User [userid]'s External Authentication Protocol [MSAD] not loaded.
When I look at the user list in EAS these user ids are not created. What am I missing here?

You have to use dynamic sql :
SQL> begin
  2  execute immediate ('create user test_user identified by test_user');
  3  end;
  4  /
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL>Of course the command should be completed with other information (e.g. default tablespace, temporary tablespace, and so on).
