Network Hierarchy Management app- not able to upload file

  • 1.  Network Hierarchy Management app- not able to upload file

    Posted Tue March 22, 2022 11:16 AM

    We have observed the Network Hierarchy management application suddenly stopped working, while taking backup or uploading it is throwing error "Something went wrong! Unknown error occured; see logs for more detail"

    I have raise case with support but they only suggested to restart the app but still its not working

    The Network Hierarchy app, (not to be confused with the OOTB QRadar Network Hierarchy which is at the top of your admin page as an icon), has been disabled until they can update the application.

    Network Hierarchy Management application was running a version of centos which was no longer supported. Even if you get it "restarted" it most likely will not work as its not supported until they update it to get around this issue.

    Sorry that whomever you got did not let you know this.

    Please check the following link at exchange that has the banner that indicates these items.

    thanks and best of luck.

    I may also had a problem with the same root cause. In my case it was a formating error and a special charakter in the Textfile that was uploaded.

    Try this to identify the line that cause the error:

    Every app in QRadar has its own logs.

    SSH to the QRadar

    console or the App Host if the Apps are running there

    Run

    /opt/qradar/support/recon ps

    to get a list of the installed apps, take note of the four-digit ID number of the app you're

    interested in

    Run

    /opt/qradar/support/recon connect <1251=example ID>

    where <1251=example ID> is the ID number from the earlier step, this step will connect you to the app's container and will change the

    Run cat/grep/... on

    /store/log/app.log

    to see the logs of the app

    When you're done, just type

    exit

    copied and updated from

    Found the above Instructions on:

    Something went wrong! Unk

    From <https://www.ibm.com/mysupport/s/forumsquestion?id=0D50z00006PEJ4qCAH&language=en_US>

    In case it is a Unicode error you will findd a Unicode error (u'code'):

    UnicodeEncodeError

    Means a special charakter is used. In the example below it was an "ü"

    An invalid parameter was passed to the API call; error message: {u'details': {}, u'message':

    u"Problem with entry {name: 'Reserviert_f\xfcr_interne_

    the word in the textfile was: "Reserviert_für_interne_"
