InvalidXRIException when connecting to EMC cluster

Please double check that the PEA file is in the same directory as the sample, or prived the full path name.

Have you followed the installation instructions outlined in the release notes? Have you tried using the shXAM community tool with the same XRI?

Should your filepath delimiters not be "\" rather than "/"?

Your setup looks OK, but there is definitely something incorrect with the XRI if that error is being thrown. What happens if you do not specify a PEA file i.e. leave off everything from the '?' onwards.

I redid the installation and am still getting the same error.

Details of my environment are:

Thanks for responding.  Tried the suggesstions, but still get same error.  See details below.

Re: Filepath -- I tried with / and \,  same error.

Did you modify the RetrieveContent sample and in doing so introduced the bug? It should work "out the box" after you downloaded it, as long as you downloaded the PEA file and put it in the same directory as the executable. You are jumping ahead and adding in additional potential areas of failure by putting the PEA file in a different location.

I notice that you are now using a different default PEA file and directory location in your XRI? Have you downloaded this file and created the directory?

You still have a '?' at the end - I said to leave off everything from that character onwards, not everything after it. Can you try that please.

I had just added some more debugging statements in order to troubleshoot issues so far.  I've reverted back to downloaded version of RetreiveContent.java and am still getting the same error.  The only thing I've added is an xe.printStackTrace() in the XAMException catch block.

Note: The pea file exists in C:\CenteraXAM\Samples directory.

Finally getting beyond this excpetion.   Issue was that the in the RetrieveContent.java the connect was being issued with an empty string:

After fixing that, I am now getting a ConnectException:

Paul answered this question in another topic that you posted (your firewall was not open for port 3218 UDP / TCP).

Please DO NOT post the same query in mutliple topics.

Sorry Paul.  It was a different exception thats why I thought of posting it separately.  Thanks for your help.  I am now able to connect to our centera.
