All, Does anyone know of any issues with an ARS v6.3 patch 20 ARS server and the v7.1 Mid-tier? After a few hours of playing (fighting) with it... it appears that the Mid-Tier just will not authenticate against that patch level of the ARS server. (Well for me it will not and I have tried two Mid-Tier installs on separate hosts.)
What I am seeing is the following: " Sep 6, 2007 8:13:24 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.INTERNAL) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.goat.GoatException <init> Throw ARException - ERROR (623): Authentication failed; ERROR (623): Authentication failed; Sep 6, 2007 8:13:24 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.INTERNAL) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.goat.GoatException <init> Throw Error - 9217 Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.DefaultAuthenticator redirectToLogin DefaultAuthenticator.redirectToLogin: url=/arsys/home Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet doThePost LoginServlet: Caught status 9388 Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.INTERNAL) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.goat.GoatException <init> Throw Error - 9388 Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet doLogin LoginServlet: Authentication status: 8 Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet authenticate LoginServlet: Authentication exception: ERROR (623): Authentication failed; Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet authenticate LoginServlet: Authenticating "USER_removed" against server "ARSServer_Removed" Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.DefaultAuthenticator getAuthenticatedCredentials DefaultAuthenticator: Using credentials from login page - "USER_removed" Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet getTargetURL LoginServlet: Target URL attribute = /arsys/home Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet doThePost LoginServlet: locale=en_US Sep 6, 2007 8:13:23 AM - FINE (com.remedy.log.SESSION) : (Thread 11) com.remedy.arsys.session.LoginServlet doThePost LoginServlet: url=https://"web_server_removed"/arsys/servlet/LoginServlet?null " When I point these v7.1 Mid-tier installs to a v7.0.1 (patch 3) ARS server then they allow the users to authenticate and appear to be working. Of course the rub is that the production server is v6.3 patch 20. I did not find any thing in the known issues ... but maybe I just have not found the correct pdf/ppt yet. Does anyone have an explanation for error 9388 means? ( It is not in the v7.1 error guide. GRRRRRR.) BTW: We really want support for Safari on the client end but I do not see it in the compatibility matrix. Oh.. now I see why it is not in the compatibility matrix...

And that will only be useful after we figure out why the mid-tier client appears to not work with our v6.3 ARS server. (Sigh) I guess I have some time before the new Mac OS is released to figure this problem out. ( To bad this Safari information could not have been a note, or referenced in the compatibility matrix. The reference was to hard to find. ) -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....
