Hi,
finally got Chef Automate up and running and wanted to use DNS CNAME to access it...
e.g. chef-automate.internaldomain.com
the site loads and prompts for automate credentials ok but on login it errors with
: expected state "3pb6rU1pdD1PHw==" got "nVH0Al9frYKmmA=="
if you use servername.domain.com it works ok
anything simple to fix this?
im not a linux guru just in case that sets expectations ... 
thanks in advance for anyone that can assist.
David
Hiya just checking in - no-one else has had this issue then?
Cheers
Hi David-
Can't say I've ever seen that expected state line, but it wouldn't surprise me either. Can you confirm that this is happening in Automate 2, not Automate 1.x?
If yes, the root cause of the issue here might be that you need to configure Automate with whatever DNS name you're going to use to access the site.
See: https://automate.chef.io/docs/install/#common-problems
Try putting in your CNAME as the value of that FQDN line and see if that fixes the issue.
