Hi Pisit38,


 


Please check the connection string that you have set up and make sure the information is correct, credentials could be configured incorrectly.

Still not work I use K2 with .Net 

For example 

Password="d]h;psv,88"

But when I put {} 

connection string see Password="{d]h;psv,88}"

that make passwork incorrect 

For example connectString = Integrated=True;IsPrimaryLogin=True;Authenticate=True;EncryptedPassword=False;Host=xxx.xxxx.xxx;Port=5252;SecurityLabelName=K2;WindowsDomain=xxx;UserID=xxx;Password=d]h;psv,88"
so I have the problem with Password=d]h;psv,88 becasue ;

Hi,


 


Out of curiousity, are you try to open a connection/impersonate another user via K2 APIs? I believe semicolons are reserved characters. I have seen something similar in the past when password containing semicolon (;), comma (,) and/or equal sign (=) are not supported. Perhaps, this KB might help, help.k2.com/kb002248.


 


 

Right now this problem has solved, thank you for your help
