We received the following error:

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

My vault Server and client version is:

3.1.2.3511

[jclausius]

Is there a typo in the error message for System.Array.Lelgth?

If not, then something might be wrong with the Vault Admin assemblies or the .Net framework itself. In a case like this, can you try the Admin Tool from a completely different machine?

[jclausius]

One follow-up note. If you do test the Vault Admin Tool from another machine, I would recommend using a new download of the file in case the installation file you used became corrupt on download.

[Carlos]

There were no typos, that was copied directly from the exception.
We tried the Vault Admin on another machine and works fine. We will format our server then.

Thanks.

[jclausius]

Yes, it was rather odd that a .Lelgth property was showing up, as an assembly wouldn't even compile if this was actually in the code.

I'm glad you discovered this, as something like this on your server could be harmful in other ways.
