I encountered same error message, at another condition.
It seems to that trusted root certificate lacks the “Orchestrator’s self-signed Certificate”.
This error resolved to import the Orchestrator Certificate.
Please check the certificate conditions.
The issue is not the SSL, the message is “Unable to connect to the remote server”. and it’s not in cloud but On-Prem. I never encouter this issue with my customers, this is the first time.
Clear, on the UiPath Orchestrator event viewer did you see any error?
Another question, your access to the Orchestrator server directly or through a firewall or NLP?
Many times you receive a generic error like the mentioned error, and most of the time this issue is related to the customer network not to the application; so I need extra information to narrow the scope
Now we had an other error message “not able to connect to the URL”, we try with the mobile connexion and that was ok. So we supposed it’s a proxy access issue on the customer network. What do you think?
And when we are connected, it’s unlicensed but I add the machine and the license to the user with his domain\username. I need to investigate but if you have any solution let me know please.
Sorry, I’m not an Expert on that but what’s the NLP. Is it on the Orchestrator server, robot machine, customer network ?
Sorry if my question can be stupid :s
No worry, sorry for the unclear shortcut (NLP is Network Load Balancer), and is it in the Customer infrastructure environment.
Most of our customers, do not give direct access to the Orchestrator web application but through the Network Load Balancer to more easily scale the environment to a multi-node or High-Available design in the future.
We host the Orchestrator on our infrastructure and the robot is on the customer network. It’s a business for our little clients and we create one tenant per customer so it’s a special config but until now we didn’t encounter this issue.
So if I right understood, this is a manipulation on our side, not on the customer side, right ?
In our side the port 443 https is open because with our other customers no problem and I checked. So I will contact my customer to verify this point.
I let you know
I had a meeting yesterday with IT team of my customer and that was not the issue. So they tryed to understand if it’s their security system, but it’s work. They told me that nothing has been changed but it seems strange. However, it’s solved so it’s cool even if I don’t know the reason
