Error loading protocol

Solved343 views23rd August 2024Connector deployment protocols Protocols & Templates

Hi Dojo,

When I upload a connector package the connector is not correctly uploaded to the system. After the upload it appears in the Protocols&Templates module but it can’t open it from that module (opens a new card with white screen) but the connector is present in the Protocols folder.

I tried uploading it by copy pasting it from DIS, I tried uploading it with the client test tool i tried uploading it from the Protocols&Templates module.

I already checked the minimum dma, I even tried removing the minimum MinimumRequiredVersion

I tested this on a DMA running 10.2.0.0-11517 and on a DMA running 10.2.0.0-12791-CU12

I did found an error on the slnet logging when uploading it:

2024-08-22 15:39:02.582|75|CacheManager.GetProtocolZipped|Error loading protocol Synamedia Virtual DCM/1.0.1.19_B11: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Length cannot be less than zero.

at Skyline.DataMiner.Net.ProtocolCache.InternalGetProtocolInfo(String protocolName, String protocolVersion, Boolean rawVersion)
at Skyline.DataMiner.Net.CacheManager.GetProtocolZipped(String protocolName, String protocolVersion, Boolean raw)

Any ideas what could cause an error like this?

I see that this was related to a Software Issue but it has been fixed because I can upload it in 10.4.6.

this is how the Compliancies tag looked like:

<Compliancies>
<CassandraReady>true</CassandraReady>
<MinimumRequiredVersion>10.2.0.0 – 11517</MinimumRequiredVersion>
<!–10.2.0.0-11517 is needed for some agents–>
</Compliancies>

After further investigation we learned that dataminer didn’t like the comment in the compliancy tag. After deleting it the connector uploaded successfully.
