Hi, Hardy: I think I found the problem in the catalina.out log. I see: SEVERE: Error listenerStart SEVERE: Context [/rest] startup failed due to previous errors SEVERE: Exception sending context destroyed event to listener instance of class org.dspace.app.util.DSpaceWebappListener
So, for some reason the Rest API is failing. Still not sure why, but I will continue to dig.
