Environment

Release : 10.6

Component : CA Service Virtualization

Cause

As per the error stack trace, the vault.keystore file is not accessible/writable to the user who is starting IAM component.

Resolution

Check the user permissions to allow write access to all files of the installation and also try to use the user who installed IAM/DevTest components on the machine.
