ERROR: function WLanSetProfile returns 50

Tue, 23 Jan 2007 17:08:36 Z

I have just begun enabling EAP-TLS support for our Vista users and following the steps in this article, ran into the same error:

ERROR: function WLanSetProfile returns 5023. The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation.

Is there a solution to this? Any help would be appreciated.

Command line executed > netsh add profile filename="wlan.xml"

Thanks in advance.

I tried to look up what "ERROR: function WlanQueryInterface returns 5023." means, but no luck.

The settings I am trying to import, are for the netword "Eduroam" which can be seen as one of the 3 visible networks towards the end of the netsh-output.
