If so please send me details offline.



Unfortunately not to this particular system. The other one is one of my home systems and I can manage something perhaps.
But are you interested in any particular log? I can upload without problems.
The strange thing is that I have the same situation on two environments that are configured the same way (single host with self hosted engine) and both passed from initial configuration in 3.6.x to 4.0.x.
Possibly I made the same configuration errors on both, or the problem is passing from 3. to 4.0.
But the original originator of the thread perhaps had this problem (solved?) with diect installation in 4.0.
He said in one of his posts:

"
all nodes and engines are synced to the same timeserver. 

as far as i can tell, the connection is from the node itself, to the vdsm on the node, so no time difference can occur.

the certificate that get's presented be vdsm on port 54321 looks ok. 

For what it is worth, I changed the certificate of the hosted-engine web interface by reconfiguring apaches mod_ssl, not touching any certificate in hosted-engine:/etc/pki/ovirt-*
"

Does 3.6 to 4.0 involve anything similar to his situation?
