Issue
After restarting the Websphere server, the RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle user interface is no longer accessible. A 404 error is displayed in the browser when accessing the user interface.

Error messages similar to the following can be seen in the SystemOut.log file. This log file may be found in a directory similar to the following (where the specific node name would be different) /home/oracle/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/installedApps/vm-support-11Node01Cell/aveksa.ear/aveksa.war/log.

Cause
This error suggests permission issues with the aveksa.ear file that were caused due to an improper restart or any other changes done by the user during server restart.
 
Resolution
  1. Redeploy the aveksa.ear file in Websphere. Instructions for redeploying the ear file on Websphere are in the RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle Upgrade and Migration Guide for your specific version. Look for the section entitled Upgrade the Aveksa EAR.
  2. Restart WebSphere.
