All of the testing nodes *and* the MA are full toolkit installs, and they all updated overnight.

Hi,

Have you upgraded the central MA to the latest esmond? Both the client and the central MA need to be updated. That is likely causing the errors, since one of the HTTP methods changed, it will lead to the 405 error you are seeing. It may likely be contributing to the 401 error you are seeing, let us know if that persists after the upgrade. 

Thanks,

Andy

In the early hours of the morning, all of our pS toolkit hosts upgraded themselves, including our Measurement Archive. The test nodes are happily writing th their local esmonds, but they are failing to write to the central MA. We are using IP-based authentication, and are seeing the following in the regulartesting.log file on the test nodes:

Even though we are not runinng any tests on the MA, we are seeing something similar (but not the same) in the regulartesting.log file on the MA:

==========

Any suggestions as to where I should look next?

Thanks,
