Hi Lewatle, Please always start by looking for UI-level errors in your browser's DevTools. Most UI-level errors in DSpace 7 will not appear on the backend unless they are caused by a 500 response or similar backend error.
The logs you shared don't appear to show one of those errors. You can search the logs yourself for any lines that include the text "ERROR" to locate issues. Again, please read & refer to our Troubleshooting guide for DSpace 7. It's important to get familiar with the troubleshooting process -- if you can quickly locate the error yourself, sometimes it's also very quick to find the solution by searching our mailing lists or "common installation issues". https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error#Troubleshootanerror-DSpace7.x(orabove) Tim ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Lewatle Johannes Phaladi <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 19, 2022 2:22 PM To: DSpace Technical Support <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [dspace-tech] Re: DSpace 7.2 unable to login on frontend Hello Tim, I have attached copy of dspace.log file from backend.

It's impossible for anyone to tell what is going on based on a UI screenshot as the underlying error won't ever appear there. So, screenshots are only useful to show that something is happening, but they won't ever show the reason why. The only way to determine the cause behind an odd behavior is to again look for errors in the UI or backend logs. Whenever you encounter odd behavior, that should be your first action, as it may lead you to the exact problem.

So, either the 405 is no longer occurring, or perhaps it was being caused by Tomcat directly? (Check your Tomcat logs as well for ERROR lines there). You should also check to be certain that, after you made the configuration change, the error still a 405. Anytime you change the configuration it's possible that the exact error may change. So, it's always possible that the config change fixed the 405 but that you are hitting a different error. Again, see the troubleshooting guide for hints on locating errors in the UI or in logs: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error#Troubleshootanerror-DSpace7.x(orabove) Good luck, Tim ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Lewatle Johannes Phaladi <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2022 5:07 PM To: DSpace Technical Support <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [dspace-tech] Re: DSpace 7.2 unable to login on frontend Hello Tim, Much appreciated for help, I have removed /home on front end link from both local.cfg and dspace.cfg config files and restarted tomcat, after that I tried to login again from web interface and the page moved and tried to login but it remained with blank page loading without completion, I have attached dspace backend log file for additional details. server url is placed as follows in config files : dspace.server.url = https://wiredspace-dev.wits.ac.za/server Regards, Lewatle On Tuesday, 12 April 2022 at 16:15:55 UTC+2 Tim Donohue wrote: Hi Lewatle, Screenshots don't really help much to debug errors in DSpace 7. It's much more useful to find the underlying error message text reported by either the UI or in the backend logs. See our Troubleshooting guide for information on finding the underlying error message: https://wiki.lyrasis.org/display/DSPACE/Troubleshoot+an+error#Troubleshootanerror-DSpace7.x(orabove) In the screenshots you shared, the only one that gives a "clue" is the one that shows the red "POST" command returning a 405 response. However, the reason why it returns that error is unclear because you haven't looked at the backend logs to see if any errors were reported there. A 405 error means that your REST API said that a POST request is "invalid"...but the reason may only be found in the backend logs. As a sidenote, your "dspace.ui.url" should NOT include "/home". Remove that subpath, as that also may cause issues (and it might even cause that 405 error, not sure). "dspace.ui.url" should be the base URL of your site...and "/home" is not the base URL, instead that would be the URL of your site's homepage. Good luck & let us know on this list what you find.
