Resolution

• This is a known issue and the root cause of the issue is the mismatch between build-time UID and run-time UID. (build-time UID=1001 and run-time UID=1000 in the affected TAP versions).
• This known issue has been fixed in TAP (Tanzu Application Platform) 1.5.2 and both build-time & run-time UID will be 1000. So the solution is to upgrade the TAP foundation to 1.5.2 to solve the issue.
