SOA 11g: Weblogic Admin Server Down with Error "java.lang.NumberFormatException: null"

Weblogic Admin server isn't starting and below error is seen in log file:

<BEA-000386> Server subsystem failed. Reason: java.lang.NumberFormatException: null
java.lang.NumberFormatException: null

This mostly happens when LDAP files are corrupted under the ../domain-name/server/AdminServer/data/ldap/ directory. A possible cause of corruption is when space on server is full. When the associated volume is full (100%) weblogic server will corrupt these files.

To fix the above error tried the below:

Remove the ../domain-name/server/AdminServer/data/ldap/conf/replicas.prop file and restart the Admin server. It should work now.
