Unable to login with AD account “User account not valid”
Unable to login with AD account “User account not valid”
Limagito File Mover has an option to add User Accounts so you can restrict the rules and options for different type of users.
More information: I want to use user accounts in LimagitoX File Mover
There is also a possibility to use domain accounts. Important in this case is that the ‘Logon As’ account of the File Mover Service is an account of this domain and with sufficient rights because it needs to able to request the domain controller if a user/password combination is valid or not.
Recently we received some feedback of a user which we would like to share with you:
Me and my admin network colleague have got AD account declared on Limagito. There is no problem at all. But, in despite adding other AD users in Limagito list accounts, unable at all to authenticate… “user account not valid”. These AD accounts are listed in the same OU as us, so I don’t understand why it causes problem, and I didn’t find any log about this error on the server. Could you help us ?
We replied with:
We are using a Windows API here to check if the account is valid. We did not change anything to this code and there is not much we can do. We’ll check if we can add more log information in the next build. Most of the time it is the user account used for the File Mover service or user rights or OU .. not easy. Strange that it does work for some accounts.
Later on we received the following feedback:
I have found a workaround after few tests : only the “Backup operators” local group permits to solve problem.
(obviously, it works also with Administrators local group… but I reject this solution).
I tried another local groups (Power users, etc..) nothing better.
I also tried to make a match regarding the Backup Operators location in the local policies (gpedit.msc ; …\local policies\user rights assignments), but nothing better at all.
=> only the Backup Operators group works.
So, I added an AD group in “Backup operators”, and all members of this AD group can open Limagito web access !
Maybe it can help your team to explain and permit to add instruction in Manual.
=> in our environment, I have to let some users hold/release determinate rules, this is why I need this king of access.

Treatment Error in PGP Decryption
Q: Treatment Error in PGP Decryption. I am writing a rule to decipher pgp files. Sometimes, I may have some error (ie. bad pgp key). In this case, I have the following error:
I would like in this case to move the file in an other directory (ie. FILE IN ERROR). Is it possible ?
A: Yes this is possible. We’ll use our Rule Events ‘On Error’ option. This event is triggered when an error occurs, in this case with the decryption in the Destination. We added some screenshots to get you started.
Please open the ‘Rule Events’ setup:
Enable ‘On Error’ and add and enable the following ‘Pascal Script’ (be sure ‘On Error’ is selected). Don’t forget to adjust the ctErrorPath const.
Const ctErrorPath = 'C:\Temp\'; // path must end with / Begin psExitCode:= 1; // ... add your code here psMoveFile(psFilePath + psFileName, ctErrorPath + psFileName); End.
Feedback customer:
In the meanwhile, I had found another solution using command on the event After Move Error. But I switched back to your solution.

Get content of text file and use this as body for email
Q: If I use Filemover to move or copy a txt file, is it possible to get the contents of that file, and then maybe include it in a Rule Event e-mail? I would like it as the e-mail body please.
A: Yes this is possible. We’ll use some Pascal Script to read the content of the text file into a variable (%VSA). This variable will be used in the email setup of the SMTP destination.
In our example we’ll scan for text files in a local Windows folder.
The ‘Include File Name’ filter is set to *.txt because we only want to pick up text files.
Important, set the Function > Destination Option to ‘Exit Cyclus on Error’. The reason is that we are going to use two destinations. The first destination which is a Pascal Script will read the content of the text file in to the %VSA variable. If this doesn’t succeed then we should not go to the second ‘SMTP’ destination. We only want to sent the email (SMTP) if the read content of the source text file is successful.
As previously described, we are going to use two destinations. Important, the first one must be the ‘Pascal Script’ destination.
Var tmpFile: String; tmpList: TStringList; Begin psExitCode:= 0; // ... add your code here tmpFile := psFilePath + psFileName; tmpList := TStringList.Create; Try Try tmpList.LoadFromFile(tmpFile); psVSA := tmpList.Text; psExitCode := 1; Except psLogWrite(1, '', 'Error loading ' + tmpFile); End; Finally tmpList.Free; End; End.
The second destination is SMTP. Some screenshots of the setup we used. We added the %VSA varaible in the Body of the email.
RunTime log result:
Received email with the content of the text file in the body of the email:
