Issue
Quick Admin Login error: Error code: 3
Error: "Problem processing request: message is "Failed to connect to the ACE/Server with port = 5570 ACE error: Verify protocol: version 75 not supported by the ACS/ACd. Error code: 3"
Cause
The hosts.conf file is missing the Fully Qualified Domain Name of the Web Server.  This file is located in the ace/prog directory.
Resolution
Edit the hosts.conf file located in the ace/prog directory to include the FQDN of the webserver.
Each entry must have it's own line. An example file is below.  Stop and Restart the ACE/Server after modifying the file.

# ##Format example:###
# ##your_pc.your_company.com,10.100.xx.yy
# ##your_pc, 10.100.xx.yy
# ####################
webserver.yourcompany.com, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
webserver, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
