OPC UA Server Faulting on startup

Ignition

Hi all,

The last two days I have been experiencing an issue where the OPC UA server faults when I first start up my computer. I have been able to fix this by stopping the Ignition Gateway service, renaming the “opcua” folder found in C:\Program Files\Inductive Automation\Ignition\data to “opcua_old” and restarting the service. The error message from the logs is attached. Any ideas?

Thanks

Hard to say without log files and version info, but it seems that one side doesn't trust the other side's certificate for some reason. Maybe one expired, maybe the UUID got deleted and now the URIs don't match up, not sure.
