gsx updates...

Hi everyone, Our GSX lookups are no longer working in Casper since Apple changed the
site services. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? It appears that
we still have web service available to us. Do we have to re-apply for a
newer web services permission?

What you really need is to change gsxws.apple.com to gsxws2.apple.com. Fortunately the basic login & warranty lookup APIs have not changed, and neither have their namespaces.

I get a similar GSX error message in the JSS when looking up purchase data. I don't know if the hostname for GSX is hardcoded in the Tomcat code or stored in a database record in the JSS MySQL database. If we knew where it was located, we might be able to change it ourselves while JAMF works on a permanent fix. I notified JAMF weeks ahead of the GSX site update and they indicated they were unaware of the upcoming changes.

Try redirecting gsx.apple.com<http://gsx.apple.com> to gsx2.apple.com<http://gsx2.apple.com> in your server's /etc/hosts file.
