Error when logging in to UI after certificate rotation

Symptoms

When using IBM Cert Manager for certificate generation, attempting to log in to the Event Processing UI fails with the following error:

{
  "error_code" : 500,
  "message" : "Failed to create SSL connection"
}

Causes

IBM Cert Manager automatically rotates certificates after approximately 60 days. Event Processing does not pick up the updated certificate secret, resulting in an SSL handshake failure.

Resolving the problem

If you see this error, delete the Event Processing pod.
