The error message reads: TokenCache.getTokenFromBrowser() could not load MSCAPI Token, SSLRuntimeException->com.ibm.hod5sslight.SSLRuntimeException: reason=1, message-> reason=1
Local fix
Problem summary
Users Affected: All Webstart clients with secure connection user using browser's keyring or Security Device This issue was happening because HOD downloaded the native dll (mscapi.dll) file to user temp directory and it fails to load from the temp location.

Place the mscapi.dll file from server machine to any folder in client machine and add the path of this folder to the System Path
