Following is a list of documented symptoms:

• When logging in to BI Platform via Lumira Discovery using Restful URL (http://hostname:6405/biprws), unexpected authentication type attempt error message:

• Missing plugins error message:

• WACS connectivity issue error message:

• When a non-administrative user saves a document to the BI Platform, Discovery shows the error:

• Generic BOE Restful browsing request failure:

• After providing credentials, the screen briefly flashes with folder listing and goes back to the logon screen without an error message.
• In other cases it has been observed, that Lumira Discovery is hanging on logon, until the token/session expires.

• SAP Lumira Server for BI Platform 2.0 SP02+
• SAP Lumira Discovery 2.0 SP02
