DBConnect pod block corrupted

Hi,
We are running a clustered environment and one of the clustered search head runs the query successfully but other clustered search heads are throwing an error :-

Blockquote

java.lang.RuntimeException: java.security.GeneralSecurityException: org.bouncycastle.crypto.InvalidCipherTextException: pad block corrupted

I have gone through all the information in the internet but still couldn't understand the error and how we can fix this error and make other two search heads to work the queries.

Thanks for the help
Sathish

After checking our config it was probably caused by a copy and paste of the password instead of typing it directly into the form.
