Banner Admin is now working as expected, in addition to Banner Self Service 9 Registration.
Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
UPDATE:
We are also receiving reports that the Self Service 9 Registration service is having issues. When students click on register for classes, they are receiving a 500 error. These issues seem to be related with admin as well, we are working on identifying and correcting it as quickly as possible.
For now users will have issues with Banner Admin and Banner Self Service 9. In addition, some other Banner services may be impacted.
ORIGINAL POST:
