I'm going through this exact issue at the moment on a GTM I upgraded from v11.3.0 HF8 to v11.5.1 HF3. Does your BIG-IP contain a FIPS HSM? That appears to be the problem in our case. The syntax for denoting where keys are stored changed from 'use-fips yes/no' to 'use-fips no/internal/external'.

 

After fixing this issue in the bigip_gtm.conf file though, other issues presented pertaining to keys already existing in the HSM and the config still wouldn't load. Waiting for support to figure it out.
