Login errors

Portal login errors
  • File system is out of disk space.

  • Fully qualified URL incorrectly set up

  • URL not in the local hosts file or in DNS.

  • Domain incorrectly specified

  • Values in Tomcat Application Server and Apache Web Server do not match what's in DNS.

Cannot log on to Portal

When a user can't log in to the IT Analytics, the reasons are usually one of the following:

  • User forgot password. Change the user's password as outlined in the Portal Online Help.

  • LDAP service is not running.

  • There is a port conflict. Another program is listening on port 80, resulting in a port conflict. Apache Web Server needs port 80. Use the netstat command to determine the other application that's listening on port 80, then assign that application a different port.

Troubleshooting recommendations

The following list suggests actions you can take to determine what is causing the issue.

  • Review the portal log file: /opt/tomcat/logs/portal.log. Check for an "Exception" or "ERROR."
