  • 1.  iXP Client CLI setup on windows machine

    Posted Nov 11, 2016 04:00 AM

    I have been trying to setup iXP Client CLI on my windows machine (Java version 1.8.0_77) so that job status can be queried without logging to iXP.
    However I am getting unexpected error while executing command.

    I have followed setup steps as mentioned in CA docops portal..
    Installation file ixp-client-71r1b3-win.zip have been copied from iXP server.

    below is the error message that I am getting while testing ixautorep.exe or any other exe files in bin folder.

    .\ixautorep.exe : Exception in thread "main" com.pgti.ixp.core.exception.IxpException: Unexpected end of ZLIB input stream
    At line:1 char:1

    please help me here to setup iXP Client CLI.

    Hi Ajay,

     

    The installation file ixp-client-71r1b3-win.zip suggests you are running a very dated version of CA iXp 7.1. This may not have been certified/tested with JRE 1.8. Consider upgrading to the latest CA iXp 11.3.5 Incr5 if you intend to use Java 1.8. Please review the documentation at:

    https://docops.ca.com/ca-workload-automation-ixp/11-3-5/en/release-notes/11-3-5-incremental-5 

     

    Cheers,

    Chandru
