This issue occurs when the expired VMware vCenter Single Sign-On (SS0) Service ID and Service End Point from the SSO Database are not removed, after re-registering vCenter Server with new certificate.
To resolve the issue, remove the old vCenter Server instance from the Single Sign-On database. To remove the old vCenter Server instance from the SSO database: Identify the current vCenter Server instance in the vpxd.cfg file located at C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter. Open vpxd.cfg file using text editor. You can see the current vCenter Server instance ID and name:<lookupService><serviceId>{9300C2AC-4D97-4191-8EB1-387D9823E6E3}:23</serviceId></lookupService>Note: Take a backup of the RSA (Single sign on) database before editing. Stop the vCenter Single Sign-on service (SSO). Log in to the SQL Management Studio and go to the RSA (SSO) database. Expand Tables. Right-click LS_SERVICE_ENDPOINT table and click Edit Top 200 Rows. In the last column you see the service ID, look for the two entries associated to vCenter Server.For example:{9300C2AC-4D97-4191-8EB1-387D9823E6E3}:2320 https://VC.DOMAIN.com:443/sdk <Binary data> 0 1923 https://VC.DOMAIN.com:443/sdk <Binary data> 0 23 Right-click and delete the row with old value ( row 1 in the above example). Expand Tables. Right-click LS_SERVICE table and click Edit Top 200 Rows.In the first column you see the service ID, look for the two entries associated to vCenter Server.For example:19 vCenterServer_2013.01.15_092833@System-Domain 5.1 vCenter Server vCenterService urn:vc NULL23 vCenterServer_2014.07.09_165913@System-Domain 5.1 vCenter Server vCenterService urn:vc NULL Right-click and delete the row with the old ID. Start the vCenter Single Sign-on service (SSO) service and login in to the Web Client to test if the issue is resolved.
