Client authentication error

Hello !

In server mode under linux, I am trying to connect to the sesame through the python API.

Here's how the server is launched :

Code
Select All
$ ./sesame -server localhost:20000:20001 -daemon
 



And here's how I try to connect to it from the interactive python interpreter (on the same linux machine where sesame server is running) :

Code
Select All
import sesame_python_api as sesame
cnx = sesame.SesameConnect("localhost")
 



s_license2.lic is in the same directory as the sesame binary and strace shows that it is successfully reading it.

The connexion to the sesame can't be made. Here's what I get in the log file :

Code
Select All
Client connection failed. Client authentication error. 



Here's what's printed on the console where the server is running

Code
Select All
 Error: Client connection failed. Client authentication error. 




Any tips on how to troubleshoot this ?

Hello,

The error message "Client connection failed. Client authentication error." is a blanket error message that will appear if one of several criteria are not satisfied during a connection from a Sesame Client. It will always be accompanied by a more specific error message inside the Sesame error log.

In this case the accompanying error message was "Unmatched client version identifier". The cause for this is that the Sesame 2.6.2 API package was mistakenly uploaded with the Sesame 2.6.0 Python .SO Linux library file. So if anyone else needs the Python .SO Linux library file for Sesame 2.6.2, send an email to support@lantica.com and we can provide it.
