Hello everyone, I have two problem 😞

First, Failed to index data:

2018-03-16 12:44:46,945 +0000 log_level=ERROR, pid=10450, tid=Thread-6, file=ta_data_collector.py, func_name=index_data, code_line_no=118 | [stanza_name="sc-input" data="sc_vulnerability" server="sc-server"] Failed to index data
Traceback (most recent call last):

Second, SSL CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED:

2018-03-16 12:50:26,942 +0000 log_level=ERROR, pid=10450, tid=Thread-4, file=ta_tenable_sc_data_collector.py, func_name=_do_job_one_time, code_line_no=61 | [stanza_name="sc-input" data="sc_vulnerability" server="sc-server"] [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verification failed. The certificate validation is enabled. You may need to check the certificate and refer to the documentation and add it to the trust list.

For SSL CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED, I already replace content of .pem file with cacert.txt. But Problem is still continued 😞

For the certificate verify issue, these steps are helpful

And when you create the certs and complete the openssl "questionaire" make sure the common name/FQDN is different for the root cert and the server cert. It will not work is you use the same value for both. (even if the value is blank)
