General troubleshooting
1. If certificate selection dialog coming and is it showing the DSC, but you get some error while signing? In such cases, the
error is usually of the form “Microsoft Crypto API internal error…” or “Cannot access cryptographic provider for private
key…”. If yes, your E-Lock software installation is fine but cause is some issue with token or token driver or the key / certificate
on the token. Check with token vendor
2. If are you getting a message like “Please ensure that you have a non-expired certificate…”? If yes, your E-Lock software
installation is fine but cause is that either your token is not connected or token driver is not installed or the token does not
have a valid certificate
3. If you get a message like “Could not connect to E-Lock SignApp…”? If yes, go through the following steps:
*Start Task Manager. Is SignApp.exe running in background processes? If yes, most likely cause is that you are not using a
supported browser. Make sure you use a supported browser, If you are using a supported browser and you are still getting
this error, go to Connection Troubleshooting
*If SignApp.exe is not running in the background, try “Restart SignApp’ menu from Start button under “E-Lock SuperSigner
Plus Client”. Check if SignApp is running in Task Manager.
*If SignApp is still not running, or if the “Restart SignApp” gives some error, most likely there is some problem with your
installation.
*If SignApp is seen in the task manager, try signing again. If it still gives the error like “Could not connect to E-Lock SignApp…”
and you are using a supported browser, go to Connection Troubleshooting
Connection Troubleshooting
Usual causes for “Could not connect to E-Lock SignApp…” kind of errors despite the SignApp running in the background are:
• You are using Chrome 56 onward and your Client installation is old (older than 4.7.5.9), or
• You are using newer version of IE 11 and your Client installation is old (older than 4.7.5.9), or
• You are using Internet Explorer version older than 10, or
• You are using IE 10 or later but the Emulation mode of IE is less than 10 (Press F12 on the signing page, at the bottom, on
Emulation tab, check Document Mode. It should be 10 or higher, or Edge), or the site has been added to Compatibility View
settings
• You are using Firefox 47 or later, but have never clicked on “Enable Firefox” menu from Start “E-Lock SuperSigner Plus
Client”
• You are using a supported browser but browser is configured to use proxy even for local connections
• Your Windows Defender firewall or Anti-virus software is preventing SignApp from accepting connections from browsers
locally
