Administrative Console connection fails on Linux server
 Technote (troubleshooting)
 
Problem(Abstract)
Things to check if you are unable to access the IBM WebSphere Application Server administrative console on a Linux host due to a connection failure. If the administrative console connection fails, the DumpNameSpace command may also fail.
 
Cause
This problem can result from the settings in the /etc/hosts file in Linux. The entry in the /etc/hosts file that is for ip address 127.0.0.1 should not have the name of the host as one of the names mapped to that loopback ip address.
 
Resolving the problem
Remove the hostname from the list of names in the entry for 127.0.0.1.
