Issue/Introduction

After CA Performance Center upgrade, it is possible to login to the web UI page, but the redirect to SSO fails with the following error:
....
HTTP ERROR 500
Problem accessing /sso/sign-in-process.jsp. Reason:
Server Error
....

Environment

Release : 3.7

Component : CA Performance Center

Cause

This can happen if the same port is used by other services, or the previous service instance (caperfcenter_sso service) did not stop properly during the upgrade.

Resolution

Review the sso.log file on CA Performance Center for warning messages like the following:

The "Failed to bind to..." message seen in the log means the SSO service could not be stopped properly during the upgrade.

Check the status of the running processes with the command "ps -ef" for any old SSO service running before upgrade.

Try shutting down all four CAPC services, then check again with "ps -ef" for any remaining services running.  

If the caperfcenter_sso service could not be stop via the service command, kill it manually with command "kill -9 <processid>", then restart all the CAPC services.

Additional Information
