Kirk,

When I try to connect via the UI "View Console" link I get

This webpage is not available

The webpage at *https://......my console server dns
name......../ajax?token=Gt3DTg7XXUFOpQjQX1hY9tyik9hj-No8TbP2jveS5VNPdMaqHnAwasJJhHOkX0QSUFHPcWfTlT9dgbd5AUvKfr0knkdeS51Ghb4u6DzBkq8iwUipstcz4JG5FOCKPO4VtDW3tne4FRcqkhJWwOvCc9Tl0LYv9Q3qg50ssYG3mrg7BBYmV8iJy7VmNxPmMQ38jqIRk4N4gbB3HwHQcxi3TY3G9BwKVcFkY4i06X4sIG_fe4C1ugAnSAy0F94hekCV5wPaaGu4kWA
* might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web
address.

Error 501 (net::ERR_INSECURE_RESPONSE): Unknown error.


Funny thing is when I hover over the "View Console" button the url shown in
the browser status bar is http://CloudManagement:8080/client/#. Using the
chrome developer tools I found the href tag is set to "#".
