Resolution
This issue may occur if your Spotfire server version and Node Manager version are not same. This may be due to your forgetting to upgrade or install a new Node Manager which is compatible with your installed Spotfire server version. You can follow the steps below to check the Node Manager version at your end:
- Login to Spotfire server URL with Spotfire Administrator user privilege. - Go to "Nodes & Services". - Select "Nodes" from drop down. - Click on all Web Player services under available Node Managers. - On the right hand side pane, check version of the Web Player service. - If it is not matching with your Spotfire server version then either you need to install new Node Manager or upgrade your old Node Manager to compatible version of your Spotfire server.
