HTTPS Problem

[ghost]

I've got the followig error message on my testserver with smashbox (Ubuntu LTS 16.04 and 14.04 LTS) running the command: bin/smash lib/test_basicSync.py. I've installed the requirements and the owncloud-cmd tool. I want to test a server with a [ADRESS] in another building runnig OC 9.0.2. SSH Access is possible.

Any ideas? The help website is not very helpful.

@Xilentura you are receiving a 401 (Unauthenticated). Inside your connection url https://None:***@[ADRESS]/owncloud/remote.php/webdav/ the username is empty (None), thus the 401. ownCloud Sync Protocol (hence Smashbox) only works over HTTP/HTTPS, not over SSH.

@labkode Thank you very much for your fast reply!! I've changed the username to a user exisiting at the owncloud server (user: smashbox). Same HTTP error.

Thanks for the information about SSH and HTTPS, but I wanted to point out, that I have a working SSH connection, because I might need it for the command in the smashbox etc/smashbox.conf

# how to invoke shell commands on the server
# for localhost there is no problem - leave it blank
# for remote host it may be set like this: "ssh -t -l root $oc_server"
# note: configure ssh for passwordless login 
# note: -t option is to make it possible to run sudo
oc_server_shell_cmd = "ssh -t -l root $oc_server"

If you have any idea why, please let me know. I'm stuck. I've tried the name of the server [e.g. example.owncloud.com] and the ip adress as well [e.g. 192.168.2.2] in the config. I have also imported the owncloud server certificate at the smashbox server.

What about specifying to ignore certificate verification: https://github.com/owncloud/pyocclient/blob/master/owncloud/owncloud.py#L313

@PVince81, any other idea?

Well... I don't know what to say... I'm terribly sorry about the solution. Error was:

oc_api.login(config.oc_admin_user, config.oc_admin_password)
File "/home/test/smashbox/src/pyocclient/owncloud/owncloud.py", line 360, in login raise e

So I checked the password and had to assert that I have mixed a "l" with an "I", so the password was wrong. Sorry for this - I will use monospace fonts for the rest of my life. Thank you for your time - but wait... there is another error. New issue.

[moscicki]

No problem -- the problem solved! ;-)

BTW. Could you tell me briefly how you came about to using smashbox? What do you try to achieve?

@moscicki I need a "penetration" tool for my owncloud instance, so I will be able to simulate heavy load on the server and smashbox seems to be the perfect tool for this.
