1405.0. "%OBB-E-INV_CANTGETAUTH" by JOBURG::BERETTA () Mon May 19 1997 12:07

           Hi,
    
        I just upgraded a decedi 2.1c VMS alpha system to 2.1d and upgraded
        objectbroker to 2.7-10.
    
        When I run the decedi$configure_obb.com I get the following error:
    
        Objectbroker error occured in DECEDI_IMC_IMPL_REGISTER
        Objectbroker error: %OBB-E-INV_CANTGETAUTH, could not get an
        authentication key from node '$node$'.
        -OBB-E-INV_CANTGETAUTH, Could not get an authentication key from
    node
        '<nil>'.
    
        Any help much appreciated.
    
        Peter.

1405.1Some info neededREQUE::whocrz.zko.dec.com::GumbelDick GumbelMon May 19 1997 13:3519
Try some obb commands to see if your installation is working ok:

	$ application /broker show version
	$ application /broker show configuration
	$ application /broker show agent

Post the results here.

Also, are you doing this on a VMScluster?  Are you running
the software on the same node you did the installation of OBB?
If not, did you run the sys$startup:obb$add_cluster_node.com
procedure on each node in the VMScluster?

    Hi Dick,
    
    Here is the output from the commands:

    This is a standalone system, not a cluster and I ran the config com
    procedure from the same session straight after I installed v2.7.
    
    Thanks for your help,
    
    Peter.
1405.3Working now after a reinstallJOBURG::BERETTATue May 20 1997 10:3312
    Hi,
    
    I managed to get it working by re-installing and choosing the option 3
    which enables decnet and tcpip. I had selected option 2 previously (tcpip
    only). I also installed it from the system account this time, in case
    this made a difference. 
    
    What put me onto to this was having only read the release notes after I 
    encountered the problem, I noticed that if you choose the tcpip only 
    option, AuthrWOAuthn should be set to enabled in trusted environments. 
    I tried changing this to enabled  and got the message "command
    failure". So then I re-installed as mentioned above.
1405.4Here is the vms command to fix itREQUE::whocrz.zko.dec.com::GumbelDick GumbelTue May 20 1997 11:2411
The VMS command to change that setting is:

 $ appl/broker modify config /accept_authr_wo_authn "TCP/IP-Only Configuration"

You could reset your config to tcp/ip-only and issue this command.
