SAS Viya login

kgeorge130 — Mon, 05 Aug 2019 16:34:56 GMT

Having an issue with a new install of SAS Viya 3.4, If Install with out configuring HTPD with my server certificates I am able to go through the post-install and login as sasboot. As soon as I add my certificates either post install or pre install I am unable to login. I have verified that the ssl certs are valid, if I set them up on apache before I try to install Viya the test page comes up as secure.

With the ssl certs in place when you try to login I am getting the following errors. from Firefox,

{
"errorCode": 401,
"message": "Authentication Failed: Could not obtain access token",
"details": [
"path: /SASDrive/"
],
"links": [],
"version": 2,
"httpStatusCode": 401
}

If I try and open it from IE before the page even loads I am getting this (see the attachment), like it is trying to download a file.

I have tried to run the playbook

renew-security-artifacts as well as distribute-httpd-certs with no change in the situation.

here is also a snip from the saslogon-default logs

2019-08-05 11:25:53.943 INFO 8958 --- [n Asynchronous5] c.s.c.bootstrap.ConfigurationLoader : service [3e83fcacae6aa99d] [CONFIGURATION_BOOTSTRAP_OBTAINED_ACCESS_TOKEN] An access token has been obtained.

if anyone has any suggestions where to look next I would appreciate it?

thanks

@kgeorge130 ,

I'm wondering, why you didn't specify your SSL certificates during the deployment process as described here?

Actually that was they way I did it the first time and still had the same issues, tried it the other way just to troubleshoot.

Any ideas on what might be causing that problem?

@kgeorge130 ,

Did you get the same error about CONFIGURATION_BOOTSTRAP_RESTCLIENT_EXCEPTION when the certificates were specified in vars.yml before the deployment?

I believe so, I should have saved the log file from then to compare.
