Expected 300, but got a 415.

I'm trying to run soscmd with these parameters:

-verbose -soshome "c:\Program Files\SourceOffsite" -server SERVER:PORT -name USER -password PWD -database DATABASE -project PROJECT -command GetProject -skipwritable -recursive

where PORT is a secure port.

But I'm getting this:
SourceOffSite Command Line Client: 128 bit Encryption version 4.1.2
Connected to server SERVER at port PORT.
Received Secure Challenge from server
Unexpected server message after login. Expected a 300 Success, but got a 415 (InvalidEncryptionKey)
Server Message Body = (null).
Closed connection to server SERVER at port PORT.

I tried "telnet SERVER PORT" and it gets connected ok. Also, I use the GUI client with no problems. More info: the key was imported ok, the .key file name is the same as the server.

What could be the problem?

Thanks,
mvh.

Any command using the secure port must use the -soshome parameter to specify the location of the key. Note that -soshome will get the files to your working folders (as set in the GUI client), so if you don't want that, you must specify -workdir as well.

I'm using -soshome:

-soshome "c:\Program Files\SourceOffsite" ...

I also added the -workdir but I'm still having the same problem.

And are you sure that is the correct SOSHOME? Does it contain an index.sos?

D'oh! That'll teach me to read too quickly.

The home directory in 4.x versions of SOS is not within the install directory - by default it's in C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Application Data\SourceGear\SOS.

If you look in that path, you should see a <servername>.key file. This is the actual key - the .iky file that's probably hanging around in you SOS directory is not the live one.

Hi.

No it does not, that's where the .key file is. The index.sos file is located at "C:\Program Files\SourceOffSite\servers\SERVER\index.sos". (SERVER = the server I'm trying to connect to).

However if I change -soshome to that path, I get the error "Unable to open key file". I tried copying the .key file to that path and after doing that I get the error "Expected a 300 Success, but got a 415" once again.

Thanks, mvh.

Yes!... that worked. I changed the path to C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\SourceGear\SOS and now it's working.

Now, I'm getting this error: Failed to open database: DATABASE. Where DATABASE is the name of my databse.

Thanks!.

The -database parameter takes a path on the machine that hosts the server. If you're supplying the name listed in the GUI dropdown, substitute the -alias parameter for -database.

Otherwise, run a GetDatabases command to see the sever path to the database.

Honestly, -alias is probably much easier!
