SSL Certificate Missing in Server Settings

I am getting a variety of errors after installing OS X Service. (New installation, not upgrade). The installation finished "successfully". With the variety of error messages that are popping up, it seems to revolve around the certificates. The various problems that I see that I have after I read some of the blogs are

1) I have no entry for SSL Certificates under Server -> Settings -> SSL Certificates

2) Select Certificates under Server results in "Error Reading Settings"

along with messages the look like

The error occurred while processing a command of type 'getLoggedEvents' in plug-in 'servemgr_info'.

The error occurred while reading settings for the servermgr_info service.

"The error occurred while read settings for the servermgr_certs service"

Also, and my guess is that it is related, the caching service does not enable is also related to this problem.

Some various screenshots are as follows.

OS X Server, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3)

Hi

More skilled contributor will have a better idea, but for me having a problem at this step is abnormal.

Installing a server is something you should repeat until each step is reproductible and documented,

with verification points.

So what I would do is formating and reinstalling the server.

If at one step you have problems, verify what you forgot on the step before.

Before to launch the server.app application, be sure you have correctly set up the network :

- a fixe IP address

- a fqdn for your server

- a correct DNS that can answer about your fqdn server.

And still before opening server.app, make all the updates, repair permissions and check logs to see if there's any problems.

Good luck

I followed Nicholas advice and worked again from a clean install and server. All came up fine and my server is in operation. I am not sure why it did not work the first time.
