Situation

Upgrading iManager from 2.7.6 to 2.7.6 Patch 1 breaks the IDM plugin for
iManager. 
The error given:
Unknown error code returned by isSearchContainerDNValid(): null

Resolution

This issue occurs if the browser cached iManager information that doesn't have the 
token updated by the patch. Simply clearing the browser cache should resolve this.
