(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 10

Hello, 

 

since today around 2PM the service is no longer starting on my machine. The event viewer is full of errors ID 1000, source ".NET Runtime" :

UIFlowService
Exception caught during service startup:
Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Service.Core.UIFlowServiceException: Error code: InternalError
No certificate were found in the machine local store.
 à Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Service.Core.HttpProxy.Authorization.RequestSignatureValidator.Initialize()
 à Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Service.MicrosoftFlowRPAUnattendedService.InitProxyServerComponents(ILocalSessionsHandler localSessionHandler, IConfigurationManager configurationManager)
 à Microsoft.Flow.RPA.Service.MicrosoftFlowRPAUnattendedService.OnStart(String[] args)

 

Any ideas ?

    Hi @Amael 

     

    From the message it looks like a certificate error.

    Try to update PAD version/reinstall PAD.

    If the error persists, you can check more details about PAD certificates here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/actions-not-available-in-power-automate-desktop-7ae1538b-c29c-4745-9a74-76bac84db8c0

    (I know, it's a different error but it might help).

    Hello, thanks I forgot that often the simplest solution is the right one. Uninstall/reinstall solved the problem 🙂 (Simple reinstall didn't do the trick the day before)
