Can't create user in F5 big-ip in GUI configuration

Now in my F5 big-ip Web GUI configuration interface, i can't create new user. In Web GUI, When i create new user, i received alert "An error has occurred while trying to process your request". But in CLI (tmsh app), i still create new user. Pls help me to solve this problem.

  • Can you provide more information about your configuration?

    • TMOS version
    • authentication type (local, AD, LDAP, RADIUS...)
    • ...

    Is there any additional logs in

    /var/log/ltm
    ?

  • You might also need to check on /var/log/tomcat/catalina.out log file as you are able to create user in CLI but not GUI

     

  • Hello luyenntk,

     

    Could you share some info for the users you are using for gui and cli, and specially what is the role for the user in the gui?

    Have you seen this solution K15084

     

    If this isn't applicable I might look to restart the Tomcat and httpd daemons (bigstart restart tomcat/httpd)

  • to preslav, i created same user role in gui and cli (role administrator or others) but still not create.

     

  • Hi luyenntk,

     

    I am not sure I understood you correctly.

     

    What users do you use to log in the gui or cli, before trying to create another user account?

  • To preslav, I used root user for cli and admin user for GUI to create another user account.

     

  • Hi luyenntk,

     

    Please provide data from /var/log/audit in the same time you make a try to create a user from gui.
