Analysis:
- RSA Identity Governance & Lifecycle is accessible by directly logging into the server with:
https://<hostname>/aveksa/main
- There are no errors in the server.log or the aveksaServer.log.
- /etc/sysconfig/iptables has the correct settings.
- SiteMinder is used for SSO login.
- The SiteMinder log file located in /var/log/httpd/error_log is full of these errors:
