VMware error

Hi,

I got this error message: "Failed to connect to the View Connection Server. The server provided an invalid certificate. The certificate authority is invalid or incorrect", while attempting to connect to VDI using the latest VMware distribution for Arch. When I went to Preference to clear the message, I got an http instead of https connection to the VDI. The same server address had an https connection in Chrome.

How can I solve the error while making secure connection? Concrete steps are very valuable.

Thanks

I hope I can help you out with your Arch issues and get myself helped out, as well.

Re: VMware error

Thanks a lot, @TheFurryWeeb. Can you tell me specifically what program you installed and steps to do that? The problem I got was about VMWare Horizon Client and I don't know whether open vm tools have anything to do with it.
