Hi everyone, Happy new year. To start properly the year I have a problem with OPC UA certificates on Ignition 7.9  
The OPC UA internal conection doesn´t recognize the regenerated certificates. We regenerate the certificates because the date expires, but now the conection is faulted. We reset the OPC module the entire machine but we continue with the problem.  
When we try to restart from the status page, the error is about the permisions but I´m working with the administrator user... Any idea?.  
Thanks in advance.

IIRC, the certificate management in v7.9 was entirely manual. You'll have to copy the new certs to the right gateway folder for "trusted" connections.

It´s working now, update the certificates on the folder & restart the conections.  
Thanks!!!
