We have been fighting this issue for a week now with no luck. We have a VMware vCenter Server Version 4.1.0 Build 799345 with ESXi 4.1.0 Build 502767. Both the Database and VCenter are running on Windows 2008R2 Enterprise. The Database is SQL Server 2008 in a non-cluster configuration.
Our environment seems to function correctly with the exception of accessing the Web Management Service. Within the VIC when we attempt a search or hardware status we get the error. We have restarted the VCenter and Web Management Services. We have tried redeploying the xhiveShared.jar file. All of this with no success. I have started combing through the Tomcat logs but am not finding much there. This situation seems to have surfaced after an Upgrade from 4.0 to 4.1 VCenter and a new SSL cert being installed.
Any hints or guidance is much appreciated.
