| Technical Level | Advanced |

## Symptoms

- * In SmartConsole \> **Logs \& Monitor** view \> a new **Logs** tab does not open and stays stuck on **Loading SmartView** .

  <br />

* Direct browser access to SmartView fails:  

  https://\<Management_IP_Address\>/smartview
  returns "*Service Unavailable (HTTP 503)* " and/or "*Page not found*".

* Other SmartView web user interface (UI) functions also hang or fail (for example, viewing **Device \& License information**).

* The Apache HTTP Server (httpd2)(*/usr/local/apache2/logs/error_log* ) log on the Security Management Server shows proxy/backend failures and timeouts. For example:  

  "*proxy_http:error ... AH01102: error reading status line from remote server 127.0.0.1 ...
  (70007) The timeout specified has expired*".

* Smart Event (or Smart Reporter) keeps loading. After some time, the following error message appears: "Error loading tab. Error: Timeout, An Operation Timed Out".

## Cause

After **Endpoint policy management** was disabled in SmartConsole on the Security Management Server, a residual web configuration file (`/web/conf/extra/ssl/uepm_gaia_ssl.conf`) remained in the Apache SSL include directory, which prevented SmartView from loading.
