    How to fix this error?

    The signature is checked against the STRUST WS Security identity &V1&,
    but failed due to:
    CRC &V2&:
    0 ok
    1 failed to find external security library
    2 format error
    3 wrong input data
    4 unsufficient memory for processing
    5 signature certificate is not trusted. To trust the signature,
    add the certificate (+ chain when issued by an certificate authority) to
    the STRUST WS Security Identity &V1&
    6 unsufficient memory for results
    7 unknown address book
    8 wrong password for address book
    10 unsupported hash algorithm
    11 ASN.1 coding failed
    12 ASN.1 decoding failed
    13 unknown error in crypto library. Check kernel traces for
