Login. Username and password required

[reall12]

Hello.

I am currently unable to login to my vCenter 7.0 web client. I keep getting an error "User name and password are required" when trying to login.

https://communities.vmware.com/t5/vCenter-Server-Discussions/Unable-to-Login-to-vCenter/m-p/2299182#M75334
Similar problem but all certs is valid (checksts.py).

I try update Vmware vCenter Server to version 7.0.2.00200 but is don't solve problem.

On TCP port 5480 I can login.

How I can reset to defaults SSO token settings via shell or ssh? After changing them this problem occur.

If you have support you should really open a SR, there is alot that could be going on here. It could be more certs that the checksts script doesn't check

I have support but how I can open SR?

Try
https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/get-help/
selest Technical -> System Management and nothing happens.

Try call to support telephone number ([phone]) and nobody picks up the phone.

Server is down all day.

Try this ? VMware Support Hub

I think the problem is not with the certificates. 

https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2112283
Regenerate all certs didn't help.

There is another way to clear out unneeded trusted root certs that we had to do that required connecting the ldap database using an ldap browser that I'm not sure there is even a kb for, that was a problem we had that was breaking upgrades and other things.

look at the last comment here

 

https://communities.vmware.com/t5/vCenter-Server-Discussions/VCSA-6-7-vpxd-doesn-t-start-after-replacing-machine-SSL-certs/m-p/2852855/emcs_t/S2h8ZW1haWx8Ym9hcmRfc3Vic2NyaXB0aW9ufEtQWUdLTzYxMzZZRkswfDI4NTI4NTV8U1VCU0NSSVBUSU9OU3xoSw#M92114

 

you can run this 

 

for i in $(/usr/lib/vmware-vmafd/bin/vecs-cli store list); do echo STORE $i; /usr/lib/vmware-vmafd/bin/vecs-cli entry list --store $i --text | egrep "Alias|Not After"; done

 

to see if any of the trusted roots are expired, if so there is semi complicated process in removing them.
