  You're running a script to check the status of the client certificate.  The script is taking too long, and is being cancelled /  stopped by the server.

  The solution is to make sure that the script does it's job quickly.

  If the script contacts an external server, then something there may be going wrong.  Update your script so that it logs error conditions.  That should help you debug it.
