Qlik-cli bad request

dferreirogft — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 04:10:50 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to configure Qlik-cli in our server .

I connect successfully to it but then when executing commands like start-qliktask I'm getting bad request (400) error.

Other api calls like getAbout or so are working correctly.

I followed the steps to install the certificates from GitHub page and qlik help.

Any clues?

Thanks

What's the full series of commands that you're using to connect? Because that could be due to a lack of permissions. For example:

PS C:\> Connect-Qlik -UserName Example\randomuser

PS C:\> Start-QlikTask -id 3f053d35-e1e6-40f0-b3de-449c009ce99d
The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request.
At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\Qlik-Cli\1.15.1\functions\core.ps1:35 char:17
+ ... $result = Invoke-RestMethod -Method $method -Uri $path @params -Web ...

hi:

i am having the same problem when using qlik-cli from windows module. hope that you can help.

i can connect using connect-qlik. but when calling set-qliklicense, it errors out:

update: this is the code where Connect-Qlik works but Set-QlikLicense doesn't.

[hashtable]$connection = @{

ComputerName = $module.Params.Computername

TrustAllCerts = $true

UseDefaultCredentials = $true

}

[hashtable]$license = [ordered]@{

serial = $module.Params.serial

control = $module.Params.control

name = $module.Params.name

organization = $module.Params.organization

lef = $module.Params.lef

}

try {

Import-Module Qlik-Cli

$result = Connect-Qlik @connection

$result = Set-QlikLicense @license

}

catch {

$module.FailJson("failed. $($_.Exception.Message)", $_)

}

What user is making the request?
- The user obviously needs to have the appropriate permissions
Is the site licensed already?
- If so with what license type: JWT or Serial + Control number?
What license are you applying?
- JWT or Serial + Control number?

hi Levi_Turner: thanks for your response. please find the info as follows.

.the user making the request is a service account with sufficient permissions (ie, this same service account running this same command with win_shell works. but we are trying to make running from windows module, then we got the errors)

.we have qlik license with serial and control numbers

.this code is for automating deployment

please let us know if there is anything else that needs clarified.

thank you

> Is the site licensed already?

That is still outstanding.

Re: Qlik-cli bad request

ceciliadoan — Mon, 08 Jun 2020 15:54:49 GMT

the ansible code does the followings:

.installing central node

.then running qlik-cli Connect-Qlik to connect (this works) then running set-qliklicense (this fails)

so my guess: that is still outstanding?

Re: Qlik-cli bad request

ceciliadoan — Mon, 08 Jun 2020 16:26:23 GMT

update: sorry if i did not understand the question.

this is a brand new central node installation where license has never been installed.

Re: Qlik-cli bad request

This run fine on my end:

$license = Get-Content -Path C:\shared-content\licenses\qlik-license.json | ConvertFrom-Json Connect-Qlik Set-QlikLicense -serial $license.sense.serial -control $license.sense.control -lef $license.sense.lef -name $license.sense.name -organization $license.sense.organization

Again, this is an unlicensed system. If a license is applied then a different technique would be required.

hi Levi_Turner:

thank you so much. we will try that once we get things working.

at the moment we can't even connect (running win_shell Connect-Qlik {{ inventory_hostname }} -TrustAllCerts -UseDefaultCredentials directly from ansible). we are sure that the port 4242 on the remote host is opened. the Connect-Qlik sometime works and sometime doesn't when running on local visual code. but it doesn't work at all when running from Jenkins with errors:

"stderr": "Invoke-RestMethod : Unable to connect to the remote server\r\nAt C:\\Program Files\\WindowsPowerShell\\Modules\\Qlik-Cli\\functions\\core.ps1:30 char:17\r\n+ ...   $result = Invoke-RestMethod -Method $method -Uri $path @params -Ses ...\r\n+                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\r\n    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-RestMethod], WebExc \r\n   eption\r\n    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeRestMethodCommand",

@Levi_Turner Except Start-QlikTask , all other commands (like Get-QlikTask ) seems to run properly from a third party tool. I get 400 error while running from a third party tool .

However everything runs fine from powershell . Any clue why this is happening .
