When activating TDM Portal for PLA telemetry fails and we are stuck in a loop.

Products

• CA Test Data Manager (Data Finder / Grid Tools)

Issue/Introduction

We just did a clean install of TDM Portal 4.10 on a windows 2019 server using SQL Server 2016.
When we try to log into the portal for the first time we are being asked to activate the PLA information.
When we provide the PLA information the telemetry fails to configure and it starts the process over again.

How can we correct this?

Cause

There is a problem with the event services service

Environment

TDM Portal 4.10
test data manager

Resolution

1) stop the TDM Portal service
2) Go to the webapps directory 
default location:
 C:\Program Files\CA\CA Test Data Manager Portal\tomcat\webapps
3) delete all folders except ROOT
4) Start the TDM Portal service and test again.
