  • 1.  vCenter Server 7 certificate replacement error

    Posted Oct 22, 2023 07:28 PM

    Hello,

    vCenter server Machine SSL certificate expired and when I try to replace it with both VMCA or custome certificate, I get LDAP Search failed error message.

    I tried options 2 and 3 of Cert Manager and got the same error. Even tried options 6 and 8 and it won't go through.
    Because of this vpxd service won't start.

    When I dig down into certificate-manager.log, I see the following;

    ERROR certificate-manager 'Exception' object has no attribute 'appendErrorStack'
    ERROR certificate-manager LDAP Search failed.Error Message:
    INFO certificate-manager Error while reverting certificate for store : MACHINE_SSL_CERT
    ERROR certificate-manager Error while performing rollback operation, please try Reset operation

    I have searched the errors over and over again for the past few days and tried different solutions, but no luck!

    Anyone has an idea on how to solve it?

    Have you tried the certificate-manager?
