Additional Information

We apologize that we were unable to address this issue within the current product support cycle. If the issue continues to affect your work in a supported release, please contact Technical Support.

Workaround

Several workarounds exist, all of which depend on using some value OTHER than the web adaptor folder name in the server host name portion of the URL:1.) Rename server.2.) Use IP address of server (eg: <a href="http://10.10.10.10/arcgis" target="_blank">http://10.10.10.10/arcgis</a>).3.) Install web adaptor to another folder name.4.) BEST: Explicitly define the connection URL to include the admin point (eg: <a href="http://ARCGIS/arcgis/admin" target="_blank">http://ARCGIS/arcgis/admin</a>).
