Problem Note 62558: SAS® Home fails to load with "HTTP Status 500 - Internal Server Error"
 |  |  |  |  |
SAS Home requires a hot fix to work with the release of the SAS® Web Application Server that is delivered with SAS® 9.4_M5. The hot fix should be installed automatically when you install SAS 9.4_M5. If, for some reason, the hot fix is not installed, SAS Home displays HTTP 500 - Internal Server Error when you attempt to log on. When this occurs, the SASVisualAnalyticsHub.log contains errors that are similar to these:
