Have you installed the full Centera SDK, including all the relevant DLL files? It looks like you are using the Java SDk and you probably don't have the underlying required C SDK libraries installed and on your PATH.

Thanks Graham for the post,

I installed "CenteraTools_4_1_WIN.exe" and not the error message has changed to

Failed to  authenticate PEA data(-10153)

This is thrown at the  following line of code

FPPool  thePool = new FPPool(poolAddress);

Could you let me know the reason.

Thanks in advance

Prashant

Hi Prashant,

This error points to an issue with the PEA file you are using. Please check to make sure you are using a valid PEA profile or are using a valid name/secret combination. Which Centera cluster are you using to test? Did you get the PEA file from this list of available Centera clusters?

Thanks,
Zeeshan

As long as they are on your PATH or in the processes current working directory when it runs, then thats fine

these?

FPCore.dll

FPLibrary.dll

FPLibrary.lib

fpos32.dll

fpparser.dll

FPStreams.dll

FPUtils.dll

FPXML.dll

pai_module.dll

do i need to install anything to get these in the right location, or can i simply copy them to a specific location?  would my deployment folder be a suitable place to park them, as long as that folder is in the PATH variable?

thanks paul.

Are the DLLs on your PATH on this server?

yes you'll need all the files that are in the lib dir on the SDK download

hi paul-

thanks for the quick response!  the only "centera" file that currently resides on that server is the fpsdk dll in my deployment folder.  i'm guessing i'll have to install others?

thanks

i copied them over and volia!  the sun is shining and the birds are chirping...all is well in centera-land!

thanks ever so much for helping me get this back on track, paul.

cheers

good morning graham-

i find myself in a similar quandry.  i have developed an extensive centera "dashboard" in visual studio 2008 and c# using the most recent fpsdk (3.2.4.0 nov09).  everything is singin' and dancin' on my pc (xp sp3 x86).  i have specified in my .net solution to "copy local" the fpsdk dll upon deployment.

now that i have deployed the exe to one of our x64 servers, i get the same "error loading fplibrary" complaint from the server.  i surmise there is more to supporting the deployment vis-a-vis the fpsdk than simply copying the dll to the deployment folder?  what will i have to do to satisfy the seemingly persnickity server?

thanks graham.
