SAS digital marketing + bess problem after https

[miki7]

Dear communities,

we have 2 nodes one with Customer Intelligence + second with Digital Marketing and single bess app configuration at our clients site.

The problem (probably since https) is that in SASDigitalMarketingServer6.4.log we see those messages during broadcast  campaign execution:

2018-03-21 10:27:55,666 ERROR [] [] [] BessNotifier  Exception while notifying internal Bess

And these kind of messages are printed in server.log during startup of SASServe6_1 of SAS DM:

Could you please give me some hint what should we try to change in configuration to prevent these errors?

Thank you very much,
