A Utility Fails to Connect to a Project

Problem: Using a command-line utility such as esp_client, you cannot connect to a project.

For example:
% esp_client -c your_user_name:your_password -p localhost:51011/your_workspace/your_project 
ASAP_loginToCluster( your_user_name ) failed, status = -1 
Solution: Check for the following:
  • Are the user ID and password valid and spelled correctly?
  • Are the workspace name and project name correct?
  • If access control is enabled, does this user have permissions that allow access to the project?
  • Is the project running? You can use esp_cluster_admin to find out and to start the project if necessary.
