** Patchsk, Mike et al...

For debugging purposes, you can set a configuration line in <midtier install dir>\WEB-INF\classes\config.properties that will include the IP-address of which midtier is responding in the headers. That's designed for debugging issues just like this.  You can then use fiddler2 to capture the headers of each exchange with the mid tiers and make sure you're always connecting to the same one.  If you're not, you'll need to adjust the load balancer so that your client session stays attached to the same midtier for a longer time.

Save a copy of the config.properties file, set arsystem.response.hostip=true (the default is false), save the config file and restart the mid tiers.

Hope this helps...

Doug

I would start by checking the server name and ip name entries as specified in the config doc. It doesn't hurt to compare the config file for the working server versus the broken one.

Hi there,
 
Yep - We have a server group configuration. The error only seems to occur when users are directed to our PRD02 server, however, it is not happen consistently. What would I need to add to the ar.cfg file?

Mike,
Like Danny said, it may not be an authentication issue. Are you in a server group/ load balanced environment? You may need to update the ar cfg file if this is the case.

We are getting exactly the same problem on our 7.6.4 environment. I am working with BMC on a resolution for quite some time now, but so far, no luck We have multiple OU entries in our AREA LDAP configuration form and for some reason it seems to skip some before giving us a "FAIL".
 
Our users have already logged into the system, so it is not failing on their login or password.

Subject: overview console random authentication errors

**
We are on ITSM 7.6.03 patch001, ARS 7.6.03p002, Windows 2008, Oracle 11g.

We are seeing at random when users click refresh on the overview console or sometimes immediately after they login and when the overview console is rendering,   users are getting

ERROR (623): Authentication failed error message.

If they wait for some time and try again they could see the tickets in their overview console without any issue.

I am suspecting may be the plugin crashed or timed out and threw the misleading authentication error message.

Does any one have experienced this issue?
