SMARTsend Security
Troubleshooting 
„
If the Enter passwords using a secure connection policy is selected and a security certificate is not 
installed on the SMARTsend computer, the user will receive a ‘Page Not Found’ error whenever a page 
that requires password entry is launched. When this situation occurs, the administrator will receive a 
warning on the administration home page to indicate that a certificate is required but missing. To correct 
the problem, a certificate must be installed on the SMARTsend computer or the Enter passwords over a 
non-secure connection policy should be selected. It is recommended that the certificate be installed in 
this situation. Until the situation is rectified, device configuration will fail, managing the SMARTsend 
application account will fail, users will be unable to create workflows with destinations that require 
credentials and users will be unable to manage existing credentials. 
„
If the Enter passwords using a secure connection policy is chosen and the security certificate has 
expired, users will receive a warning each time a page that requires password entry is launched. They 
must choose to ignore the warning or the password entry pages will not launch. In this scenario, it is 
recommended that the administrator update the security certificate on the SMARTsend computer. 
„
In some cases, when the Enter passwords using a secure connection policy is chosen, users will be 
prompted to re-enter their SMARTsend computer credentials before an HTTPS page (used for password 
entry) is launched. When this scenario arises, users must enter the same credentials that they used to log 
in to SMARTsend. Otherwise, the HTTPS pages will not launch. If the user mistakenly enters different 
user credentials, they may need to clear their browser cache before attempting to launch the HTTPS 
page again.
