Protection Engine for Cloud Services

Hi,

does anyone face same Problems? When I scan a local file with with Java SDK example Code like:

(different Windows7 Clients and Solaris too)  I got:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Scanning file ........................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Results ..............................................................
----------------------------------------------------------------------
File Scanned             : .\TestFile-128kB.data
Scan Policy               : DEFAULT

Scan Engine IP          : 10. ...
Scan Engine Port     : 1344
Scan Engine Port     : Able to connect

Any idea?

Why have you put a period at the beginning of the file path? I doubt you have a folder with a period as its name since most operating systems will not allow that. Try taking out the period and slash. If you need to specify a full path, put it into quotations marks.

Hi TSE-JDavis

Greetings from Germany - sorry for my late reply, we've had some holidays.

I heed your advice and tried:

<full qualified>/java -cp SymJavaAPI.jar: JavaAPICheck -server:10.#.#.#:1344 -file:"<full q ualified>/TestDir/TestFile-128kB.data"

i got the same message:

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

I face the same behavior on different Plattforms (Win7 and Solaris) the Testfile is definitly not used by another program.

I'm using Symantecs JavaAPICheck Class and SymJavaAPI.jar Package along with my testfile (see attm):

Which account is symcscan running as? Does that user have access to this file over the network? Did you provide it with a correct UNC path?

same Session - a streambased scan works fine:

<full qualified>/java -cp SymJavaAPI.jar: JavaAPICheck -server:10.#.#.#:1344 -file:TestFile-128kB.data -streambased:1 -policy:scan -output:out.txt -originalname:TestFile-128kB.data

filebased scan fails....

Stream Scanning is the function where we stream the file to the Scan Engine over port 1344. Otherwise, the user that symcscan is running as on the server needs to be able to access the path you specified. A UNC path normally looks like this: \\clients-fully-qualified-hostname-or-ip\sharedfolder\filename.

A Filebased scan works fine at the same Host where ScanEngine is running. Yes, Scan Engine needs access to the given File...
