Condition:

The Connector could not read the settings from the scmdaemon.xml file.

Cause

  • The connector's configuration file, WEB-INF\3DSCM\scmdaemon.xml does exist, but is inaccessible because the permissions in a file are not defined correctly.
  • The connector's configuration file, \WEB-INF\3DSCM\scmdaemon.xml, is formatted incorrectly and cannot be parsed.

Solution

  1. Verify that the server user, the user account running the connector, has read and write permissions for the scmdaemon.xml file. On Windows, if you are running the connector as a service, the server user is the built-in SYSTEM user. If you manually started the server using the console on Windows or UNIX, the system user is the user who started the server.
  2. Verify that the scmdaemon.xml file has the proper XML syntax.
