Kubernetes/OpenShift CASE Installation (air gap configuration) Digital Signature Validation Failure Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting


Problem

If the cloudctl case commands fail after November 4th, 2021, and if the failure is related to signature validation, check the /tmp/case/case.log file for the reason of failure.  The following message is an example error message that provides the reason:
  • Unable to validate the signature against any provided public key.   
** Container Application Software for Enterprises (CASE)

Symptom

After November 4th, 2021,  cloudctl case commands might fail with the following error: 
  • error: Unable to validate a signature object for the CASE <CASE name>-<CASE version>.
This failure could occur because the public certificate information used to validate the CASE's digital signature has expired. 
The /tmp/case/case.log file shows the following message:
  • Unable to validate the signature against any provided public key
