Registering servers with the SMT servers - Getting a "Download failed. Abort" error

To whom it may concern

I have an SMT server running on SLES15 SP5. It does get all its repositories and all the repositories are in sync. meaning there are no problems on the SMT server from what I can see. I tried to register 2 servers with the SMT server but I am getting the under-mentioned error messages.

1. Error 1 - ./clientSetup4SMT.sh --host IP_Address_SMT_Server
Download failed. Abort.

2. Error 2 - SERVER01:/ # wget IP_Address_SMT_Server/.../clientSetup4SMT.sh

--2024-10-01 16:17:43-- IP_Address_SMT_Server/.../clientSetup4SMT.sh
Connecting to IP_Address_SMT_Server:80... failed: Connection refused.

The firewalls are stopped on the SMT and the 2 servers. Could someone please help me to solve the problem?

    sh clientSetup4SMT.sh https://fqdn-smt-server/center/regsvc

    this is a possible command for the reg in the SMT server. Normally the reg only works via port 443. Important, the SMT needs a certificate, usually the tree CA is used. There is information on this in the instructions. It is also possible to use a self signed or commercial certificate instead of the eDir certificate.

    Thank you George for your response. It is indeed a certificate issue but more than that Apache2 is giving me an "[mime:error] [pid 29566] (2)No such file or directory: AH01597: could not open mime types config file /etc/apache2/mime.types.
    AH00016: Configuration Failed" error message. I would rather reinstall the server and let you know the outcome.
