Hi,

I've a new install of SnapCenter 6.2 on a Windows Server 2025 VM. The install appears to complete but the service on port 8146 does not start, error from install log:

1-13-2026[08:05:06 AM]: (CLR Action): makeRequest: Info: makeRequest: Service Api request Code : BadRequest
1-13-2026[08:05:06 AM]: (CLR Action): CheckIfSCServiceIsRunning: Info: Count 3 : Service is not up. Going to sleep.
1-13-2026[08:06:06 AM]: (CLR Action): makeRequest: Info: Service Api request: https://x.x.x.x:8146/rbacservice.svc?wsdl
1-13-2026[08:06:08 AM]: (CLR Action): makeRequest: Info: makeRequest: Exception Occurred while making a API call.

Anyone come across this and is there a solution?

Thanks in Advance

Daniel

Any more details in the log?
C:\Program Files\NetApp\SnapCenter\WebApp\log\

Is any other Application using that Port ?

netstat -ano | findstr :8146

Is firewall blocking the port :8146 ?
