    I have the same problem. I did manage to install one SVE instance a couple of months ago - now I need to install another one on another VMWare cluster controlled by the same vCenter server and it won't work. I have re-downloaded the SVE package from Sophos Central just in case it had changed, but it still doesn't work. We are using a self-signed certificate on our vCenter and I already ticked the "Ignore this certificate" box. Is it the vCenter certificate it is complaining about or the Sophos Central certificate??

    Hi Dave,

    I've got the same problem like you describe in your post. We're you able to install Sophos VE in the end?

    Kind regards,

    Hi Tijs,

    I raised a ticket with Sophos and this is what they said:

    Hello,
    I believe the certificate is the one from Sophos Central.

    Try browsing to https://central.sophos.com within Internet Explorer on the machine where the SVE installation is being run from. This will cache the certificate on the machine.

    Then run the SVE installer and hopefully this error will not be an issue.

    Regards,
    Sophos Technical Support

     

    This did fix the problem.

    Dave
