edgeLinux/antman cannot connect to anthill - therefore no UI access to antman

New install of edgeLinux 2.0.0 - ISO downloaded 4/18/20.  edgeLinux/antman cannot connect to anthill.

I enter the anthill username/pass and click Activate and it just churns.  It tries many times and eventually times out and the UI shows a blank popup error window and states antman is down.  /var/log/messages contains a lot of things like this:

{changed the server name here and rebooted}

No errors during install.  Networking works - can access the server via SSH as well as the UI on port 3000, server can ping outbound and ping anthill.antsle.com.  Also was able to curl https://anthill.antsle.com and get a page returned.

Not sure if this is by design but since it cant connect/register with anthill there is no other way to get past it to get into antman to do other management of the server.  I thought I would be able to get at the antman UI at least but cannot get past the anthill registration page/process.

I have rebooted multiple times and even reinstalled.

@brundle - Thanks for letting us know. We'll look into this.

@mardo can you come to the rescue here?

Hi @brundle

The issue was fixed yesterday night. Please re-upgrade by running:

upgrade-antman

Wait for antMan to come back and try again.

Let me know how it goes!

Yes that update seems to have resolved the issue.  I am past the anthill registration and in to the antman management UI.  Thanks!

Now running antman 3.0.1a
