Why HashiCorp vault returning null?

I have a HashiCorp vault setup and it seems to return null all the time except when I ssh into the VM and then I set the values again followed by checking the values directly on the vault server.

Any ideas what might be happening?

I am a bit lost on this and not even sure what logs or config files are helpful. This is one of my first experiences with vault and so far it seems finicky at best.

If you are unsure what happened, try deploying it in AWS via AWS vault quickstarts. They deploy vault end-to-end, so now you can compare it to yours and find out what was the problem.
