Repository Service stopped working

Hi SME,

Need your expertise. I installed May 2024 SR 4. All was working fine till windows OS patching.
After the patching Repository Service keeps stopping. Log looks like this:

Based on the log, it's.Local Certificates\client.pem that is being denied. Not sure why and how to fix this. Has anyone encountered this problem and what did you do to resolve this problem?

BTW this also happened in the dev environment yesterday and patching didn't take place, what i ended up doing was delete QS installed certs and reinstall the application. This can't be the solution. There must be something else that is causing it.

@J8 

Make sure you  log in with the service user running the Qlik Sense services and test if you  have access to the path. 

 C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Repository\Exported Certificates\.Local Certificates\client.pem?

Hi Maria, 

Yes, i used service account to log into the system and is able to access the path without any error.  So that isn't the problem.
