Resolution

To correct this issue do the following steps for the issue with Credentials.

  1. In the CCS Console, navigate over to the Admin -> Credentials workspace.
  2. Make note of all the credentials listed and how they are configured, such as any assets for asset-specific credentials.
  3. Delete ALL of the credentials listed, or this workaround won't work. (May need to reboot the AppServer after this step)
  4. Recreate all the needed credentials.
  5. Re-run any jobs that were previously failing, they should now run without any issues.

 

To correct this issue do the following steps for the issue with Command Based Checks, for predefined standards.

  1. In the CCS Console, find the predefined standard being used, and delete it.
  2. Close the CCS Console, and on the Application Server open the Control Panel.
  3. Open Programs and Features/Uninstall a Program and select Symantec Control Compliance Suite 12.<version>
  4. Then select Uninstall/Change, and after the content install launches select Add/Upgrade.
  5. Uncheck anything you do not want to be installed, and make sure the previously deleted standards are selected.
  6. Go through the different windows selecting Next, until you can Install.
  7. Once finished close, and relaunch CCS Console
  8. You will now be able to use the newly installed predefined standards to run the job successfully.

NOTE: In the case of a custom standard/check you will need to either copy from a known good source, or manually recreate the check.

For additional details on how this can happen please refer to the following documentation.
About passphrases for Application Server Service and Encryption Management Service

Additional Information

NOTE: When modifying the Application Server Credentials, you may run into the following error.

Failed to create JobManager Secure storage instance.

If you see that error, then make sure you followed the resolution, and after step 3, reboot the server.
Then go back, and you will now be able to add in the credential/password to create the Secure storage.
