Hi manshack_one, yup I'm able to connect to the server instance within studio and able to add datasource. Am using the root user for db access which is kinda strange, also, I'm able to add users and roles which are also insert statements which kind of had me puzzled as to this behaviour. Hi KKriplani, The logs were empty, even with debug set on all loggers, nothing was sent to the logs when the save button was clicked. I was using superuser as I have not set up any other users yet. However I did notice that the browser was doing a POST / PUT ajax call to the rest interface which failed and resulted in a connection reset, but as usual, the logs are dead silent Regards, sharkkae
