Issue/Introduction

Unable to view distribution site link for example http://host_name:7070/clu-prod, http://host_name:7070/clu-test or any organization hosted site e.g http://host_name:7070/mysite-prod in a web browser for LiveUpdate Administrator (LUA) version 2.3.3 and 2.3.4.1.

 

LUA version below 2.3.3 works fine displaying contents when the link is used in a browser. No issues experienced with LUA 2.3.3 and 2.3.4.1 for downloading and distributing to http://host_name:7070/clu-prod, http://host_name:7070/clu-test or any organization hosted site e.g http://host_name:7070/mysite-prod

Resolution

Due to security reasons the option to display contents via web browser for LUA hosted distribution site http://host_name:7070/clu-prod, http://host_name:7070/clu-test or any organization hosted site e.g http://host_name:7070/mysite-prod using a Web browser has been removed in LUA version 2.3.3/2.3.4.1 and above.

 

Symantec is aware of this change.
