Anyone have any ideas on this error I'm getting following
a new install of 7 on a windows box (using a very old OS)?
(I am using doubling the %, you just don't see that happening
in the sysout below.)
Environment - Control M Agent running on a Windows Server 2003.
CM Version 7.
Sysout:
ctmvar -ACTION SET -VAR "%%\SONYELC_D_PROGUPLD\SONYELCPROGDROPPATH" -varexpr "\\hhdhpfpapp04\HPF_Client_Files\ETAutomation\SonyElect\
ronics\Programs\ProspectsDynam_20130207180005.txt"
Output:
Request Aborted - invalid protocol used.
Result: Failure.
ctmvar error - Request Aborted - invalid protocol used
Protocol error is caused by agent/server configuration. Have admin check it. Syntax for ctmvar on a windows server would be:
ctmvar -ACTION SET -VAR "%%#%%#\SONYELC_D_PROGUPLD\SONYELCPROGDROPPATH" -varexpr "\\hhdhpfpapp04\HPF_Client_Files\ETAutomation\SonyElectronics\Programs\ProspectsDynam_20130207180005.txt"
Can someone explain why the % signs have to be doubled and what the # symbols do when on a windows agent server? These are not requred on a unix agent server.
