vCenter 7.0 HTML5 login page stuck after Active Directory integrated with vCenter

Just after integrating Active Directory to vCenter 7.0 and rebooting the appliance i tried login (with administrator@vsphere.local) to vCenter but the HTML5 client is stuck.

- i tried different browsers

- cleared cache

- tried incognito

- tried restarting vCenter service

but no luck, eventually rebooted the vCenter appliance and it worked but yet again once i logged off from vCenter and tried to login the loading page stuck again and reboot was the only answer ...

Also when i logged off from vCenter, received error: [401] This request requires HTTP authentication. After which it does not goes back to login screen unless i restart the browser.

Don't use the Active Directory integration with vCenter. It's actually going away. You should use adding AD via an LDAP source going forward.

You can try to un-join trough command line than setup the connection by using the LDAP rather than the AD option.
