Apache felix console not loading

[Harsharya]

Apache felix console not loading when typed http://localhost:4502/system/console/bundles... getting error. Tried restarting multiple time also checked Open bundle.state file and change state is already "active". Application is running as expected.

AEM Version 6.2:

Error:

You may need to increase the logging level for the logger "org.apache.sling.engine.impl.SlingRequestProcessorImpl" to DEBUG to see what is happening. That is, if you are able to. 

There may be errors in the log file prior to this that may provide clues to the failure.

If you are stuck, then file a ticket with Customer Care at Daycare.

1) AEM 6.2 is end of life -- you really should be migrating off this version as it's no longer in support.

2) Only the Admin user (or users who were explicitly whitelisted by Admin in the Apache Sling Web Console Security Provider) can access the OSGI Console

• org.apache.sling.extensions.webconsolesecurityprovider.internal.SlingWebConsoleSecurityProvider.config

It's a common misconception that if a user is an Administrator they can do all the things Admin can use -- this is false.
