Problem

A client-side information system sends a service request and receives "Token softToken Not Active" error message as a response. There are two versions of the error message that have different fault codes.

ServerProxy
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
  <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <SOAP-ENV:Fault>
      <faultcode>Server.ServerProxy.CannotCreateSignature.Signer.TokenNotActive</faultcode>
      <faultstring>Token &apos;softToken&apos; not active</faultstring>
      <faultactor></faultactor>
      <detail>
        <faultDetail xmlns="">13525d1b-0c58-4c72-9f3d-f762bf94880a</faultDetail>
      </detail>
    </SOAP-ENV:Fault>

</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

  <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <SOAP-ENV:Fault>
      <faultcode>Server.ClientProxy.CannotCreateSignature.Signer.TokenNotActive</faultcode>

  </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

Solution

Fault code: Server.ServerProxy.CannotCreateSignature.Signer.TokenNotActive

The error message indicates that PIN code has not been entered on the service provider's Security Server. Contact the service provider's Security Server administrator about the issue.

Fault code: Server.ClientProxy.CannotCreateSignature.Signer.TokenNotActive

The error message indicates that PIN code has not been entered on the client-side Security Server - the Security Server that you're using to consume services. Enter the PIN code to the Security Server or contact the Security Server administrator about the issue.
