Description

Description:
For a custom TIBCO ActiveMatrix® Adapter for Files (Unix/Win), when the following was done and the user name was created with a password, the custom adapter could not connect to the EMS server even if the correct password was provided in repo configuration in TIBCO Designer™:


- JMS transport configured.
- Authentication parameter in tibemsd.conf was enabled.
- JNDI lookups in rep configuration was checked.

Symptoms:

TIBCO ActiveMatrix® Adapter for Files (Unix/Win) cannot connect with EMS server using SSL enabled with SSL protocol and JNDI lookup.

Cause:
This is an TIBCO® Adapter SDK issue. This happens because the password was not being sent to the underlying EMS APIs correctly when creating a JMS connection.

Resolution


The above defect is fixed in TIBCO® Adapter SDK (SDK) 5.4.1 HF-02 for runtime (from command line) only and not for design time (from Test Connection).

The SDK 5.4.1 (HF-02) is included in TIBCO Runtime Agent™ (TRA) 5.5.4; you can install TRA 5.5.4 and test (at runtime: from command line).

Alternatively you can do the following:
- Download and Install the SDK 5.4.1.
- Apply SDK 5.4.1 HF-02 over it.

- For Windows:
- Copy maverick53.dll to <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/bin
- Copy maverick53.lib to <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/lib
- Verify the <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/bin and  <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/bin locations pointed in adapter tra file.

- For Solaris:
- Copy files (libmaverick53.so and libmaverick5364.so) from <SDK_HOME>/lib/ to <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/lib.
- Copy file (MDefinitions.h) from <SDK_HOME>/include/ to <TRA_HOME>/include.
- Verify the <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/bin and  <TRA_HOME>/hotfix/bin locations pointed in adapter tra file.
