When attempting to access the Security Analytics UI, the browser displays the following error:

HTTP Error: 503
Problem accessing/. Reason:
    Service Unavailable

The /var/lib/netwitness/uax/logs/sa.log reports an error similar to the following:

[main] ERROR org.springframework.web.servlet.DispatcherServlet - Context initialization failed
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'gzipResourceHttpRequestHandler' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/mvc-servlet.xml]: Cannot resolve reference to bean 'buildInfo' while setting bean property 'buildInformation'; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.NoSuchBeanDefinitionException: No bean named 'buildInfo'

In order to resolve the issue, follow the steps below.

1. Remove any non-alphanumeric charcters from the hostname.
2. Make sure your /etc/hosts, /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/hostname files are set correctly and reflecting the new hostname.
3. Reboot your appliance and the Security Analytics UI should begin functioning normally after it fully initializes.
