ERROR

 
Where:

• adminserver - Is the server name where teh Administration server is running.
• adminport - Is the Administration Port for the domain (AdminChannel listen-port), e.g.: 9004

STEPS

The issue can be reproduced with the following steps: 

Attaching a WebCenter Portal Policy: 

1. Run wlst under WEBCENTER_HOME/common/bin.
   
   
2. Connect to the administration server using the Administration Port.
    
   e.g.:
    
   
   connect('weblogic','pwd','t3s://adminhost:7001')
    
   
   
3. Attach WebCenter Policies.
    
   e.g.:
    
   
   attachWebServicePolicy(application='/WCPDomain/WC_Spaces1/webcenter', moduleName='webcenter', moduleType='web', serviceName='SpacesWebService', subjectName='SpacesWebServiceSoapHttpPort', policyURI='oracle/wss10_saml_token_service_policy')
    
   This should return the error.
   Note it shows it is trying to connect using "t3" (non-ssl) protocol to the Administration Server with the non-ssl Port which is restricted when having a domain configured with domain-wide administration port or administration channel:
