Issue/Introduction

I am trying to configure the IG client tools CA-RCM-DNA-14.4.2.exe and CA-RCM-DM-14.4.2.exe to connect to our server with https with port 8445. After installing client tools, I ran the command regasm.exe "C:\Program Files\CA\Identity Governance\Client Tools\Software\SageSOAP.dll" from directory C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\. I have this error when using https and port 8445. However, it works fine with http and port 8082.

 

Environment

Release : 14.4
