Not possible to decrypt encrypted string in database
When checking the "operations monitor" (Qlik Sense Server environment), the following error is listed.
Not possible to decrypt encrypted string in database; this is probably due to the secrets key on server certificate has been changed and the old database value hasn't; sending back empty result and leaving the value unchanged in database
Any idea's how to update 'the old database value' and resolve this error?

Hi Edwin,
Not sure if you got a solution to this.
I have encountered the same issue. It looks like it was caused when I upgraded my OS from Server 2008R2 to 2012 R2. I tried to recreate my Certificates without luck.
I logged a call with Support and after trying a number of things I have decided that as this is only a Test Repository I am going to recreate it. There does not appear to be a way to fix that Secrets Key. The Support Techie did say that he had put in a request to enable us to fix the Secret Key via QMC but considering that that Secret key helps to encrypt data it could be pretty difficult to change the secrets key.
The only real solution seems to be to restore to a last known good backup of the Repository or recreate the repository.
Cheers
