SAS Open Metadata Interface Connection Problem

[SebastianW]

Hello SAS Community

I’m struggling with a Connection issue using the SAS Open Metadata Interface:

Running the following code:

MdFactory factory = new MdFactoryImpl(false);
MdOMRConnection mdOMRConnection = factory.getConnection();
mdOMRConnection.makeOMRConnection(connectionInformation.getHost(), connectionInformation.getPort(), connectionInformation.getUsername(), connectionInformation.getPassword());

Results into this Exception:

Caused by: com.sas.metadata.remote.MdException: None of the requested encryption algorithms are supported by both peers: AES
	at com.sas.metadata.remote.MdOMRConnectionImpl.makeConnection(MdOMRConnectionImpl.java:1385)

Does anybody know what to do?

Kind regards

I think the exceptions are pretty clear. Looks like your SAS server is configured to accept AES-encrypted connections but your client isn't set up for that. Can your client app be configured for AES-encrypted connections?

You are rigth. My SAS Server is configured to accept AES-encrypted connections. Unfortunately I don't know how to configure my Client, which uses the sas-Jars to connect to the Metadata-Server.

Sorry, I've never tried that myself so I can't really help any further. I suggest you track this to SAS Tech Support if you haven't done so already.

You need the SAS/SECURE jars on your classpath - sas.rutil.jar and sastpj.rutil.jar
