​I haven't seen this error before, could you please share server.log and
engine.log?

​You need to have correctly set up engine FQDN and it has to be resolvable.
If you don't have correctly set engine FQDN, you can fix that ​
​using ovirt​-engine-rename tool, more info can be found at:

https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/how-to/networking/changing-engine-hostname/

Also be aware that you need to use that engine FQDN to access oVirt 4.0

​This is one of the oVirt 4.0 features​, we have implemented OAUTH SSO for
all engine parts: webadmin, userportal and restapi. If you are using CAS
(althought it's officially supported by oVirt), that probably means you
have configured cas authentication on Apache, passing authenticated
username using aaa-misc as authn extension and aaa-ldap as authz extension
(to get group memberships for authenticated user). If that's true then
please take a look at

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1342192

there are some changes on Apache configuration (the bug is for kerberos,
but I suspect similar config is needed also for cas module in apache).
