Accidentally the power to the ACS server was switched off and then on again. But after the power on though the device came up successfully; we are not able to manage it.
We are unable to manage our ACS. We have a configuration back-up.
1) by HTTPS. The cert can not be added manually on the browser in any way. Looks like an application error. Tried several different browsers.
ACS details:
CSACSE-1113-K9 Cisco secure ACS 4.x solution engine 1113 Appliance CSACSE-1113-K9v01
when i try https:abc001:2002/
I get he following pop up error message:
Secure connection failed.
an error occurred during connection to abc001:2002. certificate type not approved for application.(Error code:sec_error_inadequate_cert_type)

2)Tried with a serial cable, but we only get some rubbish on the screen. We tried different serial cables. These cables work on other appliances (WLC controller and Cisco switches) but not on the ACS

Hi,
The issue which you are facing comes when you the certificate installed on the ACS is either not correct or has gone corrupt. You would not be able to install a fresh certificate on the ACS Appliance through console or SSH.
You can open a TAC case and send a backup of the ACS database, they might be able to correct the database. Otherwise the only other option is to reimage the ACS Appliance.
To access an ACS Appliance from the console, you can go to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_server_for_solution_engine/4.2/installation/guide/solution_engine/instalap.html#wp1065399
To administer the ACS Appliance, take a backup etc., you can go to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_server_for_solution_engine/4.2/installation/guide/solution_engine/admap.html
