Cause

Environment

Release:
Component: PPMJSP

Resolution

On the CSA > [server] > Properties > Application > Application Server, check the current value for SSL Handling. If you are using HTTPS access with Jaspersoft, change it to "Support only HTTPS".
Also make sure that the HTTPS Entry URL for the app server matches the one you enter in the browser to access PPM.
Restart app services after making those changes.
