UI returns "Moved Permanently"

[Barry Kaplan]

I don't see anything wrong with the settings. What could cause this?

ubuntu@ip-10-0-16-238:/var/lib/consul/ui$ sudo cat /etc/consul.d/default.json 

{

  "data_dir": "/var/lib/consul",

  "server": true,

  "bootstrap_expect": 3,

  "ui_dir": "/var/lib/consul/ui",

  "client_addr": "0.0.0.0"

}

ubuntu@ip-10-0-16-238:/var/lib/consul/ui$ consul info

You’re not loading the correct URL and Consul’s helping you out. :-)  curl doesn’t follow redirects by default; add -L.

Sorry. I only tried curl after the browser did not work. But thanks, I forgot about the non redirect following. 

When I first tried to use the UI the cluster was not established yet (only one server of 3 running). Now that the cluster is up the UI works. 

Is this expected? That the UI only works once the cluster is up?
