    1    S    smui721    08/28/17 14:12:15            UI server patch for 7.2.1

     

    I can get the agent/server filesets to install without any issues and I can discover my cluster/s, but I cannot get the Timeline portion or the EVENTs with descriptions to work.  There are no apparent failures and I am on the verge of opening up a PMR but trying to see if anyone else has hit a similar roadblock and may have any suggestions. 

     

    The closest thing to an error that I found was:

    08/28/17 2:30:48 PM - info [lib/events/service.js]:main[278]:    Sending from host: hostname  41 events with origin=logRetrieval
    08/28/17 2:30:48 PM - error [lib/events/service.js]:main[320]:   HTTP Post Request to URL: https://hostname:8080/api/events/notify
     returned status code=500

     

    * Note that I change my hostname in the output to just "hostname" since it is accessible externally.
