    Ciao 

    What version of the vCenter Appliance do you have?
    Can you access the vCenter management console?
    For reset the vcenter root account password:

    ESXi host client or vCenter don't prohibits login due to untrusted certs.

    CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED is a client error, try to clear the browser cache or run incognito mode.

    Are you able to use administrator@vsphere.local?
