Issue/Introduction:

When starting Identity Manager errors are produced reporting mismatched secret passwords (see below)

There was an error in Decrypting the inbound payload from the provisioning server. This could be due to mismatched shared secrets.

Cause:

It is possible for the passwords can fall out of sync.

Environment:

CA Identity Manager 14.x

Resolution:

The password used by Provisioning Server to encrypt the notification and sent to Identity Manager is part of BLS Connectivity Configuration(eTConfigPayload attribute). This can be updated either by Provisioning Manager or Identity Manager.

Via the Identity Manager (IM) user console "System->Secret Keys" screen

or

Via the Provisioning Sever "System -> Identity Manager Setup - > Shared Secret" screen

Try changing the password on the provisioning server and wait for it to be read by IM.
