Error message when you try to connect to the SoftGrid Management Web Service server by using the SoftGrid Management Console: "Error code: 0000C806"

SYMPTOMS

When you try to connect to the SoftGrid Management Web Service server by using the SoftGrid Management Console, you receive the following error message:
Unable to log into the SoftGrid System.
The security certificate received from your web server could not be validated. Please report the following error code to your system administrator.

CAUSE

This problem may occur when SoftGrid is configured to use an encrypted channel, and the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate is not issued by a trusted root certification authority.

MORE INFORMATION

To test a certificate on a computer that is running Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1, follow these steps:
  1. Start Internet Explorer.
  2. Visit the following Web site:
    https://SoftGrid Management Service server/SoftGridManagement
    Note If you are prompted for a certificate, the SoftGrid Management Console cannot connect to the Web site.
  3. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
  4. Click the Content tab, and then click Certificates.
  5. Click the Trusted Root Certification Authorities tab.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.
