srinivasa_attot — Wed, 26 Feb 2025 09:20:48 GMT

Hi All,

I have deployed SAS VIYA on Kubernetes and all the pods are running except CAS pods. when i am trying to SASStuudio url it gives an error" bad request".

Note: I am not able to open any of the url lie studio, drive and Environment manager.

On checking SAS-Studio-app pod log, i see the error " Header too large".

Can anyone help me how to fix the header issue ?

Regards,
Srinivas

I think this can happen if the authenticating user is a member of enough groups to cause your oauth token to breach the maximum header size configured for Java services (server.max-http-header-size).

Are you able to log in to Viya as sasboot successfully?

If so, under Env Mgr > Configuration > Definitions locate the "server" definition and see if you have an existing definition for the Global service. If so, edit that definition and if not, create a new configuration, selecting the service Global.

Then add a property called "max-http-header-size" with a value of "32768", and save the configuration.

If you aren't able to log in to Viya you can add this configuration in the SAS Configuration Server directly with the command:

kubectl -n namespace exec -it sas-rabbitmq-server-0 -c sas-rabbitmq-server -- /opt/sas/viya/home/bin/sas-bootstrap-config kv write config/application/server/max-http-header-size 32768 --force

You may need to restart your Viya Java-based services to pick up this change.

You can get a list of those services using:
kubectl -n namespace get deploy -o jsonpath='{range .items[?(@.spec.template.metadata.annotations.sas\.com/kustomize-base=="spring")]}{.metadata.name}{"\n"}{end}'

Thank you @gwootton . I am still not able to login to SAS VIYA environment manger but after executing kubectl commands the error is not seen in the logs.

Are you able to authenticate using the /SASLogon endpoint?
