Sample SystemInfo.pl is not working.

Hi,

 

I just startet with iControl SDK, so i thought it might be best

 

to try out some of the provided samples.

 

I am using XP as Client.

 

But allready the first (SystemInfo.pl) is not working.

 

We have SOAP Lite installed and Perl Version 5.8.8.

 

Starting SystemInfo.pl via:

 

SystemInfo.pl 10.250.30.86 21 username pwd

 

 

I just get the following output:

 

 

==========================================================

 

System Information

 

------------------

 

500 SSL negotiation failed: at C:\iControl-9.2.2\iControl-9.2.2\sdk\samples\soa

 

p\perl\soaplite\System\SystemInfo.pl line 89

 

 

----------------------------------------------

 

 

Am I using the wrong port?

 

 

The Host-Ip Address is 10.250.30.86 (Custom HostIp)

 

but I could not find any information about the used port in the

 

BIG-IP Admin Tool.

 

Can any mody give me a hint.

 

Would be most appreciated.

 

 

Francis

  • Thank you for your support. It turned out, that port 443could not be reached due to a firewall. We are running SystemInfo.pl via a Unix-client. It works fine now.

     

    I could just no figure out, were to put new skripts. They are working fine if we run them under the samples directory. But I could not find any infos about how to run scripts from other directories. Sorry, might sound stupid, but it's just my 4'th day with perl.

     

  • The samples should work fine from other directories, just copy the iControlTypeCast.pm in the sdk/samples/perl/soaplite directory to the new directory you placed your scripts and all should work.
