Hello everyone,
we setup a new Windows Server 2008 R2 as a vCenter Server 5.1
I'm now trying to install new certificates for all vCenter parts (server, inventory service, web client, ...) with Windows CA.
I'm stuck at updating the vCenter Server SSL certificate with the "SSL Certificate Automation Tool".
It's part 5. at this guide (5. in the cmd screenshot):
All credentials are correct, but I'm getting always the same error (vc-update-ssl.log):
[26.04.2013 - 10:42:54,99]: Copying the new certificates and keys to "C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\SSL..."

[26.04.2013 - 10:42:57,13]: The vCenter certificate update failed.
So I tried the manual way, like it's mentioned in this guide:
I'm stucked there also, getting a "Method Invocation Result: vpx.fault.SecurityConfigFault" after "Invoke Method":
- Go to https://localhost/mob/?moid=vpxd-securitymanager&vmodl=1 on the vCenter Server and load the certificates for the configuration by using the Managed Object Browser.
- Click continue if you are prompted with a certificate warning.
- Enter a vCenter Server administrator username and password when prompted.
- Click reloadSslCertificate.
- Click Invoke Method. If successful, the window shows this message: Method Invocation Result: void.
I tried to fix that, but there is no really solution for this:

Sooooo, I need help for this issue
