Registering Authentication Certificate on the Security Server Returns "Invalid server address" Error

 Problem

Sending authentication certificate registration request from the Security Server to the Central Server fails. The below error is logged in the /var/log/xroad/proxy_ui_api.log log file:

InvalidRequest: Invalid server address

The same error message is shown in the Security Server UI as well.

 Solution

The Security Server DNS name or IP address must be included in the authentication certificate registration request. The address is registered on the Central Server and other Security Servers use the address when sending requests to the Security Server. Before sending the authentication certificate registration request, the Security Server validates the address. If the address is not valid, an error_code.core.InvalidRequest error code with an Invalid server address error message is returned.

The address must be a valid DNS name or IP address. The address must not include https. For example, example.com is correct and https://example.com is incorrect.
