Linkerd-tap is not working after 'automatically Rotating Webhook TLS Credentials'

[hanife-Orthopy]

Hi, we’re currently using Helm to install Linkerd, linkerd-viz and cert-manager to manage the certificates. I configured linkerd-viz for automatic certificate renewal. The steps were followed as in this task page, but the only difference is that the 'root-CA' is stored in Vault-PKI. There are no error messages for the certificate and issuer, but the tap-pod logs are as follows;

 http: TLS handshake error from 192.168.67.209:53868: remote error: tls: bad certificate                                                                                                       http: TLS handshake error from 192.168.67.209:63778: remote error: tls: bad certificate

and when performing 'linkerd check --proxy', I get the following output:

linkerd-viz
-----------
√ linkerd-viz Namespace exists
√ can initialize the client
√ linkerd-viz ClusterRoles exist
√ linkerd-viz ClusterRoleBindings exist
× tap API server has valid cert
    cert is not issued by the trust anchor: x509: certificate signed by unknown authority
    see https://linkerd.io/2.14/checks/#l5d-tap-cert-valid for hints

Linkerd version: 2.14.10
command to create root-CA in Vault for linkerd-viz webhook certs:

vault write -field=certificate <pki-path>/root/generate/internal \

      common_name=webhook.linkerd.cluster.local \

      ttl=876000h key_type=ec

[hanife-Orthopy]

I have found the issue. In the settings of the linkerd-viz Helm chart, I did not specify the namespace of the certificate for CA injection. It should be as in this example ;

set {
    name = "tap.injectCaFrom"
    value = "<namespace>/ <linkerd-tap-cert-name>"
  }
