Been trying to follow along with the Aviatrix Cloud Sandbox Starter - Spin up Cloud Networks in Minutes training. AWS credentials passed successfully but the launch of the controller fails due to the following: 

I have client 2.17.7 installed on Windows. We use SSO authentication to connect.  Typically, usually, I find that if my machine has gone to sleep and the VPN has disconnected… then the next time I try to connect the client application crashes silently after launching the SSO browser window. It seems to be an unhandled UI error. The command log has; 2024-11-19 10:03:52,278 37160 40572 ERROR servervpn ChangeProfileText 98 Unexpected14..Still in Base classI have tried (a lot); restarting the laptop restarting the Aviatrix VPN Service uninstall and reinstall using the Force Kill disabling and re-enabling the TAP-Windows adapter.If I keep trying it, again and again, eventually it works. It’s maddening.
