Fabric CA 1.5.14 Issue
The update in Fabric CA v1.5.14 to not use FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3 by default has caused some issues in the community.
Since v1.3.x was 6 years ago we thought there was no need to use the old compatibility mode by default anymore, since it was meant to be a temporary mode, and deployments could still set FABRIC_CA_SERVER_COMPATIBILITY_MODE_V1_3=true if they really needed it.
However, it turns out some components like fabric-operations-console never updated to use the new authorization header, until the recent v1.0.9-33. And in some deployments (e.g. kubernetes operators) it is not straightforward to update environment variables for a managed pod.
If anybody sees issues related to “
Invalid token in authorization header: Token signature validation failed
" when interacting with Fabric CA server please open an issue.
