Error update vcenter SSL certificate?

Hello people,

I've recently upgraded to vcenter 5.1 U1a successfully.

I'm following VMware articles and a popular blog to prepare and run the certificate VMware 1.0 automation tool.

http://www.derekseaman.com/2012/09/VMware-vCenter-51-installation-part-2.html

http://www.derekseaman.com/2013/04/using-VMware-vCenter-certificate.html

Everything was pretty smooth up until I have to replace the the vcenter Server SSL certificate.  Option 2 vcenter update ssl.  See the attached photo.

After the error, my vcenter service will not start.

I tried to reset the password of database using vpxd.exe - p, but vcenter still does not start.

I also checked that the correct service ID is matched between vpxd.cfg and LS_ServiceID.prop.

Stuck at this point.  I have since went instant return, but try to see if anyone has any suggestions?

Could this be type a bad password?

Thank you!

  • Update the SSL certificate on a security server?

    Good afternoon everyone,

    I'm trying to update the SSL certificate on the server of our security, but I'm running into some problems.

    DigiCert (we get our certs of), not like the VMWare KB article order to request a 2048-bit crt, so we used their tool to generate our a commandsfor us:

    keytool - genkey-server alias - keyalg RSA - keysize 2048, FULL domain name -.jks keystore - dname 'CN = CNNAME, OR = OUNAME, O = ONAME, L = NAME, ST = STNAME, C = CNAME'

    keytool-certreq alias server-file FQDN.csr - FULL.jks domain name

    (I did not show the exact details of the CN name, etc.)

    It makes the keystore a .jks instead of a .p12

    Should this cause problems?


    Because after I imported the cert in the keystore, change the config locked file to reference the key file and restart the Server Security Service, it does not restart properly. (Defining the locked towards the old works fine keystore file, then restarting the service works find though.)

    This documented error in Event Viewer:

    Should I request/pay for a new cert so my base keystore is .p12 instead of .jks?

    Hello

    I think that the command you mentioned creating a CSR only. You get a digicert certificate after sending this rea and create a keystore with whom?

    Please follow the steps in this KB to complete the whole process.

  • VCenter Server 5.1 SSL certificate update - error

    Hi all

    We set up a new Windows 2008 R2 server as a vCenter Server 5.1

    Now, I try to install the new certificates for all parts of vCenter (server, inventory, web client service,...) with the Windows certification authority.

    I'm stuck at the update server certificate SSL vCenter with the 'Certificate SSL Automation Tool'.

    This is part 5. in this guide (5. the cmd screen shot):

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 2041600 #updatestepsplanner

    All credentials are correct, but I still get the same error (vc-update - ssl.log):

    So I tried the manual way, as it is mentioned in this guide:

    I'm stuck here too, get a 'result of Method Invocation: vpx.fault.SecurityConfigFault ' after ""Invoke method ': "

    1. Go to https://localhost/mob/?moid=vpxd-securitymanager & vmodl = 1 on the server vCenter Server and load the certificates for the configuration using the managed object browser.
    2. Click continue if you are prompted with a warning on this certificate.
    3. Enter a vCenter Server administrator user name and password when prompted.
    4. Click reloadSslCertificate.
    5. Click the calling method. If successful, the window displays this message: result of Invocation of method: Sub.


    I tried to fix this, but there is not really a solution for this:

    http://communities.VMware.com/thread/429035

    so, I need help with this question

    SOLVED!

    Steps to follow:

    1. stop the vCenter service

    2. search for your ID in LS_ServiceID.prop in the folder C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter

    3. copy this ID (e.g. {C4672589-9258-42B1-90E2-1EF268BBD402}: 5 )

    4. change your vpxd.cfg in the same folder and replace

    vCenterService

    with

    your ID

    5. start vCenter Service

    Then, the SSL automation tool works!

    You need to undo changes.

  • Warning of SSL certificate when you download a picture of ESXi?

    Hi people,

    I have crossed all of installing vcenter, SSO, inventory, web, client Manager Update, etc and replaced all the SSL certificates using a series of excellent articles.

    http://www.derekseaman.com/2013/10/vSphere-5-5-install-PT-1-Introduction.html

    I think that it all works for me.  I have replaced SSL certificates on my 5.1 ESXi hosts and have added to the vcenter, no problem.

    I want to use Update Manager to upgrade hosts to 5.5.  I see this SSL certificate warning when you try to add the image of ESXi (photo attached).

    It makes me think that maybe my vcenter SSL certificate does not get replaced with success?

    I don't see this prompt anywhere, as the vsphere client connection.

    Check if all the comments?

    Thank you

  • The SSO authentication: the SSL certificate is unknown

    Hello

    I'm trying to configure orchestrator solution to use SSO for authentication. Although the vCenter certificate is installed and displayed in the trust to SSL Manager, I get the following error:

    The SSL certificate is unknown. You can fix this in the SSL Certificate tab.

    Tried to reinstall the certificate, restart the device - without success. Username and password are correct.

    I use Version of the device: 5.5.0.0 build 1282845, vCenter 5.5.0, 1476327.

    How can I solve this problem?

    By "vCenter certificate is installed," do you mean Certificate SSL VC (imported from https://[vc-ip]:443)?

    For SSO authentication, you must also import the UNIQUE https://[sso-ip]:7444 authentication certificate

  • SSL certificate expired Indesign CS6

    I open Indesign this morning and I find that the SSL certificate has expired. So my question is, since Adobe has released with CC, is it going to be the trend at Adobe? Is that going to be way Adobe to tell me to go CC? Because I certainly am not impressed that I have to come in and change the settings so I don't get the message posted below whenever I open Indesign, which is a legitimate paid for copy. I plan to go to CC, but when I'm ready. As you can tell, I'm not happy to be with this announcement.

    Screen Shot 2013-08-04 at 7.11.32 AM.png

    hl2rcv.Adobe.com is one of the headlights of Adobe receivers. They collect information about the anonymous use of the program Imporovement of product (for example, what are the features you use and how often, everything falls into failure or error dialog boxes), then the expired certificate will not stop the operation of the software itself and does not mean that there is nothing wrong with your license (CC subscriptions activations go through an entirely different network servers).

    I'm sure that someone will update the SSL certificate as soon as possible, but if you want the warnings to go away just disable participation to improve the product (via the Help menu).

    I had this at one of my clients. I dug into it and discovered the following:

    Cisco updated their SSL certificates certificates signed earlier this year to use SHA2. They are signed by a different root certification authority (Verizon if I remember correctly) and the IPS system image must be updated to the latest version (7.3 (5)) to approve of this CA root certificates.

    This is mentioned in the IPS 7.3 release notes (5):

    http://www.Cisco.com/c/en/us/TD/docs/security/IPS/7-3/release/notes/rele...

    • You need IPS 7.3 (5) to use the automatic update, global correlation and the participation of the network after the migration of the Certificate SHA-2 on Cisco websites.

  • CA-signed SSL certificates on vCenter 5.1 installation (server or device)

    I recently updated my 5.0 to 5.1 ESXi ESXi hosts and they all kept CA-signed SSL certificates that I installed previously. I did a new install of vCenter 5.1 server where the box even ran SSO, inventory, vCenter Server and Manager Update Services. After installing, everything worked perfectly except that none of the vCenter services used my CA-signed SSL certificate - only 5.1 ESXi hosts had these.

    So, I followed the instructions in replacing default vCenter 5.1 and ESXi certificates PDF found at http://www.vmware.com/resources/techresources/10318. The document is terrible. For example, page 10 lists the locations by three default certificates SSL on Windows 2008. None of these paths are correct. The first a typo of extra space between "Program" and "Data" and the other two say "Program Files" when they should have been "ProgramData". This is just the beginning of the problems.

    If you follow the instructions to the letter, you'll break vCenter. I got frustrated and thought I'd give the vCenter 5.1 device a shot. With regard to the Certificates SSL signed by CA, it was worse. The vCenter 5.1 device can even automatically generate a new SSL certificate if you change the host name (turn on generation auto-certificat, change of hostname and restart). It gives an error 653 during the boot process and keeps the original of the certificate. Even bother trying the steps on page 18 of the above-mentioned guide - you will get just the same mistake 653.

    It seems to me that VMware did not all tests around the CA-signed SSL certificate on vCenter 5.1 installation. It's amazing to me that the installation of the SSL certificate is so tedious for ESXi and vCenter when vShield Manager 5.1 has a very simple process that works well (and is similar to the installation procedure for Certificate SSL on the DRAC, ASR, breeding various firewalls, etc.).

    I did a lot of research on Google and found various articles on the installation of the SSL certificate, but most were based on GA pre - 5.1 products. If you have any installation of certificates SSL CA-signed success with vCenter Server or device 5.1 GA, let me know how you got around some of these issues. Please indicate if your vCenter Server or device will run on a 5.1 GA ESXi host as well. Please do not answer about vCenter 5.0 - I had no problem with SSL certificates (other than it was more painful to be).

    Thanks in advance,

    Nate

    Finally I managed to install giving him to 127.0.0.1 instead of the period of INVESTIGATION, accessible from the outside of the vCenter server, it's very well in my case the vCenter and VUM server are on the same VM but its not exactly ideal for deployments of more large.

    I gave up, uninstalled VUM server, re-installed on the vCenter server administrator, used 127.0.0.1 and VUM finally got with valid SSL certificates.  As part our design, we didn't have the same server as vCenter VUM but I found myself with no other choice.

  • Update of root certificate does not (error CAPI2 event ID 60)

    Hello

    I recently did a clean install of Windows 7 SP1 on a new system.
    I noticed that there are sites including https / SSL certificates do not seem valid where I don't expect it (for example BBC laboratories), using the two Chrome and IE.
    After some searching on the forum of other messages, I followed it down to a problem with Windows 7, do not automatically update root certificates installed. Specifically, using MMC event logging, CAPI2 event ID 60 (store) returns 5 "access denied." This causes then event ID 11 and 30 to not like the certificate chain fails to build and check.
    Other points to note:
    • Normal Windows updates work fine
    • Most of the sites using https / SSL works fine (i.e. a root certificates are installed with success - if those provided with Windows or have been updated since the installation I don't know)
    • I tried to disable all my firewall / antivirus programs where they prevented updates, no effect
    Anyone know a fix for this - I don't really want to having to perform a complete reinstallation :(
    Thank you!

    Thanks sirot,.

    Unfortunately, this does not work.
    In the end I just did a re-complete installation of Windows which seems to have solved the problem.
  • Red vCenter - unable to check CA (PSC) signed SSL certificate vCenter VMware

    I am trying to deploy a new Horizon view 7 based on vSphere environment 6 U2 to replace our pod 5.3 view existing. I have a Windows Server vCenter Server with separate PSC of Windows. I used the PSC signed the SSL certificate for vCenter and downloaded and added the certificate authority root for the required workstations and servers via Group Policy. If I navigate to vCenter from your desktop with CA root installed all is well on the HTTPS front. I added this vCenter Server in my environment view but it appears in red on the dashboard view. I clicked on the vcenter Server and checked the certificate, but at no time should you go green. The two connection servers have the CA root installed and if I launch a browser from the connection to the server itself, then navigate to the vCenter FQDN certificate is approved.

    Any ideas?

    I cannot create pools for this reason that the view is not currently communicate with vCenter as well and it won't let me choose a virtual machine model.

    If you need to know more details please let me know and I'll happily supply.

    Thanks in advance.

    Having re-read the Horizon view documentation 7 to confirm that I had taken the correct steps already, I decided to restart both of my new server connection, that solved the problem. My vCenter server now shows in green in the dashboard and I was able to successful deployment of desktop computers.
