CauseThis issue may occur if the encrypted configuration data for the AFX server is encrypted with a different key than the system-wide encryption keys stored in /home/oracle/security.   This may occur for a variety of reasons, including the following examples:
  1. The database has been restored from a different system with different encryption keys.
  2. One node in a multi-node cluster is incorrectly using different encryption keys than the SON node.
  3. The AFX deployment archive has been exported from a different system than it was deployed on.
All passwords in the AFX configuration, including the Default Truststore Password, are encrypted with the system encryption keys.  If the keys do not match any encrypted data in the AFX configuration including the connector definitions, the error will be generated.
The system-wide encryption keys were introduced in 7.0.1 and later versions. 
 
ResolutionRecover the Encryption Key from the master key storage directory as per the instructions on page 34 of the RSA Identity Governance and Lifecycle V7.0.1 Database Setup and Management Guide.
WorkaroundIf you elect not to recover the Encryption Key from the master key storage directory, then the AFX startup failure can be resolved by re-encrypting the AFX Default Truststore Password.
Under the AFX > Servers menu,
  1. Select the AFX instance that has failed.  
  2. Edit the AFX server and select the Default Truststore Password.  
  3. Enter the password changeme and save the changes.

  1. Restart the AFX server from the command line.
afx restart

This will ensure that the Default TrustStore is encrypted with the current keys.
NOTE: If you have imported any AFX connectors from another system you will have to edit each of the connectors and update any encrypted fields (passwords) by re-entering the password and saving the connector definition.
