I choosed the old way to change the machine ssl certificate.

I fixed it. Just open the certificate in Text editor and copy/paste it in the required field.

Dude....u helped me.

I used "Browse file" in a other vCenter and it was OK.

Today I got your issue with "Error occurred while fetching tls: String index out of range: -1". Fixed with copy&paste...

logs:

TLS Certificate replacement failed : String index out of range: -1

Publishing telemetry data to VAC failed with exception : Failed : HTTP error code : 400

java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1

Thanks!

My combined CA chain had a trailing space, perhaps look out for that too.
