BuildForge::EX::APIException: API: Authentication Error.

Hi All

I am using the following code to launch BF project from a ClearCase trigger. It's works all fine in my test environment, but got the above error when move it to my production environment. Our test and production environment have a complete separate set of CCCQBF servers, but both are integrated to the same LDAP.

Where can I find the more detailed error message? Can it be the port not open?

Thanks
Jirong





 my $conn = new BuildForge::Services::Connection('ccbuildforged01', 3966);
 $conn->authUser('bldforge', 'password');

 The code doesn't appear to have a domain attached to the user.  An LDAP user should have a user like "domain/bldforge".  Are you sure that you are using LDAP to authorize the bldforge user?  Verify that a local user  "bldforge" exists in test and not in production.

Unfortunately the logging does not include what the bad credentials are that are coming in, otherwise I would be able to find the people who spam my BF log here at IBM... =)

 This is resolved, we had some security issue.
