FMC displaying "The server response was not understood. Please contact

FMC displaying "The server response was not understood. Please contact support." at the GUI login.

After an attempt to upgrade our backup FMC from 6.6.1 (build 91) to the latest 7.0.4-55, the GUI does not allow login and gives the "The server response was not understood. Please contact support." error. After running "pmtool status | grep gui" these are the results:

mysqld (system,gui,mysql) - Running 16750
monetdb (system,gui) - Running 16762
httpsd (system,gui) - Running 16766
sybase_arbiter (system,gui) - Waiting
vmsDbEngine (system,gui) - Down
ESS (system,gui) - Waiting
DCCSM (system,gui) - Down
Tomcat (system,gui) - Waiting
VmsBackendServer (system,gui) - Waiting
mojo_server (system,gui) - Running 29626
root@FMC02:/Volume/home/admin#


Trying to run a "pmtool EnableByID vmsDbEngine" and "pmtool EnableByID DCCSM" or reboot of the appliance does not work. Are there any instructions for restoring from a backup or correcting the issue?

Looks some DB and other service still looking to come up.

2 Options, build another VM with 6.6.1 and restore if you have backup and try to upgrade again.

or contact TAC for assistance.

have you looking compute requirement for 7.0 ?

Yes I'm looking to upgrade to 7.0. This is also a physical appliance. Unfortunately, I didn't see any backups created to restore from. Awaiting TAC assistance also. Thanks.
