[strongSwan] Azure child rekeying loop

Hi,

I have a site-to-site tunnel to a private classic Azure.
It starts and works perfectly but, after after approx 43 minutes (i think
it's the child rekeying interval), it starts looping like this:

08[KNL] creating rekey job for CHILD_SA ESP/0x066cf00c/<remote>
06[IKE] establishing CHILD_SA CONNECTION{1}
06[IKE] establishing CHILD_SA CONNECTION{1}
06[ENC] generating CREATE_CHILD_SA request 0 [ N(REKEY_SA) SA No TSi TSr ]
06[NET] sending packet: from <local>[4500] to <remote>[4500] (220 bytes)
14[NET] received packet: from <remote>[4500] to <local>[4500] (76 bytes)
14[ENC] parsed CREATE_CHILD_SA response 0 [ N(NO_PROP) ]
14[IKE] received NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN notify, no CHILD_SA built
14[IKE] failed to establish CHILD_SA, keeping IKE_SA
14[IKE] CHILD_SA rekeying failed, trying again in 30 seconds

Any idea why it would be doing that, even though the initial connection
succeeds?

Thanks.
