I tried: disabling and enabling the OPC UA server connection. Re-entering the default password “password”. Restarted the gateway. Reverted to a known working backup.
Tech support advised re-setting the default user (opcuauser) password (password) and disabling the OPC UA Module restarting the gateway, enabling the OPC UA module and restarting the gateway. Re-initialize the loopback connection.
this was the solution to getting the loopback OPC UA server working again for me.
