Hello,
I'm trying to set up the Control Expert Security Editor in a client-server configuration to manage roles for Control Expert in a centralized manner. I can't get the Server to change state (it only shows "Stopped"). When I click on the "Certificate Actions" tab and change the product selection to "SecurityService", I see that there is no certificate in the certificate store (red X on the certificate icon and confirmed via tool tip). When I click "Generate Self Signed Certificate" I get a popup dialog box that says "SecurityService: Certificate creation failure". I checked the Windows Event Viewer for Application events and every time I try to generate this certificate I see an error that says something like:
0x80040072 : Fatal error : p:\p-unit\dev\securitymngt\securityservice\securitycertificates.cpp:653 [PID: 43152]
I've got this program installed and running as Administrator. I've tried this on another VM and I'm having the same issue. What would cause this certificate creation to fail? This is preventing us from running the Security Editor server.
