VCSA 6.7 - Can't login with AD after upgrade!

I just upgraded with success my VCSA from 6.5 to 6.7 by deploying a new VM, however I can no longer login with AD credentials.

I have set my domain as my default identity source in SSO, however when watching the log file in /var/log/vmware/sso/websso.log I keep seeing it try and send the authentication to vsphere.local and not to the domain I have setup.

This is the type of error I'm getting:

Does anyone have a similar issue or know how I can fix this?

Thanks!

Hello,

1. Check if the VCSA 6.7 is joined to Domain.

2. Removed the vCenter from domain and add it back to domain, Once re added Reconfigure AD Authentication.
