Hi,

I am exploring Axeda builder and have created few data items for my connector agent. I have configured my agent as networked device and am able to download the configuration files through builder. However, I dont see them on the sandbox in asset's dashboard. When I try to restart the agent through builder, it fails with error saying "Could not open Data Protection master key". Please help.

Regards,

Aasim

    Which version of the Agent and Builder are you using?

    Hi Aasim

    In order to restart the agent just restart the agent's service (Windows) or a process/deamon (Linux etc.)

    1. Did you configure data loggers? Data logger is required for pushing the data items from the agent to the platform.
    2. Is your agent configured to check the platform SSL certificates? This should be switched off for the sandbox
    3. Do you have correct platform URL configured in XgDeployConfig.xml? Use Deployment Utility to check/modify these settings

    Hope this helps

    Hi Maciej, Chris

    Thanks for your responses and help. After configuring data logger, my data items are now visible on the platform. Thanks.
