Gitlab-runner signtool cert error

We’re able to build the driver from the CI machine’s devenv but when running via gitlab-runner, encountering the following message:

Project “C:\Multi-Runner\builds\d88c2e81\0[redacted]\Agent-[redacted][redacted][redacted].vcxproj” (2:2) is building “C:\Multi-Runner\builds\d88c2e81\0[redacted]\Agent-[redacted][redacted][redacted].vcxproj” (2:3) on node 1 (TestSign target(s)).

The driver will be test-signed. Driver signing options can be changed from the project properties.

even if we run via devenv , the results are same :

Seems to be the similar issue flagged in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37712793/how-to-test-sign-minifilter-in-jenkins-ci-build

Anyone else run into this ?
