Unauthorized is not Unauthorized sometimes vCloud Director 10.2.2

Actually problem is not about vCD 10.2.2, also problem is not about username and password too !

its very hard to understand the problem or maybe easy to catch but must be careful

Guilty is max header 😀 and myself maybe you 😀

What happened ; when i couldn’t see rights bundle correctly from provider UI somehow i clicked SAVE maybe and vCD overwright and takes all rights from “Default set of tenant rights” and i started to get “Authentication Error”

But interesting thing is from event i can see the login successes.

First i fixed haproxy

To tune haproxy add parameters under global section

    tune.bufsize 65536
    tune.http.maxhdr 1024

Not: I tried HTTP/2 but something goes wrong and back to 1.1 again maybe someone can try and comment out in this article.

Then checking 9.5 release note and set max header for it but don’t forget before check related values if its not correct then apply.

Without this you can see “HTTP 502 errors” when you inspect the page

Thanks for developers 😀 no any warning for “Hey , you will overwrite all rights , are you sure ? ” or in debug log say something instead of Authentication Error ” permission or no right error” indicated.

Finally using via api need to resend all rights back.

Not for you, always backup your rights and roles at the startup , when you made change too maybe one day you could need it to set it back via lovely swagger.
