This problem now went away. And I did nothing different to my knowledge.

Would still be nice if one could lookup the error reason somewhere?

And problem occured again... Anyway to get more information?

Anyway to get more information?

When the notary service issues an Invalid response, it generates a log that offers some insight into what it’s complaining about. For instructions on how to get that log, see Fetching the Notary Log.

In the past I used altool which worked. Not sure of related though

Probably not. This status means that your submission made it to the notary service, and the path it took is unlikely to affect its assessment.

Note It sounds like you managed this transition yourself, but we have a technote that explain it in detail: TN3147 Migrating to the latest notarization tool.
