IBM InfoSphere Streams Version 4.1.1

Client certificate is revoked

Symptoms

InfoSphere® Streams issues the following error messages: 
CDISC5400E Unexpected error while performing certificate authentication.  Cause: CDISA5089E An unexpected error occurred. The error message is 'Authentication failed: certificate is revoked'.

Causes

The client certificate has been revoked by the certificate authority (CA) and cannot be used to authenticate.

Resolving the problem

Update the STREAMS_X509CERT environment variable and include the name of a valid certificate, for example:
export STREAMS_X509CERT=/streamscertificates/client_certificate.pem

You can request that the CA sign the revoked certificate again. In this case, the CA will send you a new certificate.
