Workaround

Warning: This will only work if you still have the default self-signed portal certificate installed in the portal's keystore. If not, please contact Esri Technical Support. 1) Stop the portal windows service. 2) Open this file in a text editor. "<portal installation location>\Portal\framework\runtime\tomcat\conf\server.xml" 3) Search for this block of XML: <Connector SSLEnabled="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8" clientAuth="false" connectionTimeout="20000" connectionUploadTimeout="3600000" disableUploadTimeout="false" keyAlias="BAD CERTIFICATE NAME HERE" keystoreFile="../../../etc/ssl/portal.ks" keystorePass="portal.secret" maxHttpHeaderSize="65535" maxPostSize="10485760" maxThreads="150" port="7443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="https" secure="true" sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2,TLSv1.1,TLSv1" sslProtocol="TLS"/> 4) replace the keyAlias section. It will now look like this: <Connector SSLEnabled="true" URIEncoding="UTF-8" clientAuth="false" connectionTimeout="20000" connectionUploadTimeout="3600000" disableUploadTimeout="false" keyAlias="portal" keystoreFile="../../../etc/ssl/portal.ks" keystorePass="portal.secret" maxHttpHeaderSize="65535" maxPostSize="10485760" maxThreads="150" port="7443" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="https" secure="true" sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2,TLSv1.1,TLSv1" sslProtocol="TLS"/> 5) Start the portal windows service.
