Certificate expired in OVA file. Unable to deploy on vCenter

maxime_hercelin — Thu, 23 Aug 2018 16:14:55 GMT

I try to deploy new version 12.8.2.1. I need to re-deploy a new VM because I'm on version 11.26.

When I try to deploy OVA file (from https://thehivecommunity.aerohive.com/s/detail/a2v0c000001xedqAAA), vCenter returns an error about certificate.

OVA file is signed with an expired certificate since 27 July. See screenshots.

Can you update OVA file with a new certificate ?

Thank you

Hello, you should be able to open the OVA file and remove the old certificate and the digest hash file, then you won't get that error. We will have an updated file in later releases, but in the mean time this is our workaround.

Hello Sam,

Thank you for your answer.

Too bad you didn't fix it before it expired.

I find your solution on VMWare forum : https://communities.vmware.com/message/2726514#2726514

I extract files from OVA with 7z. I uploaded OVF and VMDK files on vCenter with success.
