fglcmd error after upgrade to Foglight 7.3 "Connection problem: Could not access HTTP invoker remote service" (4377458)

After upgrading Foglight to 7.3, fglcmd started failing.

The error message is:

Connection problem: Could not access HTTP invoker remote service at [http://fms.example.local:8080/foglight-sl/CommandLineService]; nested exception is org.apache.http.NoHttpResponseException: Did not receive successful HTTP response: status code = 404, status message = []
org.springframework.remoting.RemoteAccessException: Could not access HTTP invoker remote service at [http://fms.example.local:8080/foglight-sl/CommandLineService]; nested exception is org.apache.http.NoHttpResponseException: Did not receive successful HTTP response: status code = 404, status message = []

In Foglight 7.3, fglcmd was updated to work with a REST API interface, this causes older versions of the fglcmd client to stop working when trying to connect to a Management Server in version 7.3 or higher.

This change was implemented as FOG-6563.

Resolution:

Download a new version of fglcmd.zip from the [FMS_HOME]/tools directory in the Foglight Management Server.
