Login error encountered. Please check username and password.
When the desktop app display this message, please check the following:
- The version of Gemini web app is 2.0.2 or higher.
- WSE2.0 SP3 is installed on the web server. Please note that WSE3.0 will not work.
- The URL you are using is correct and should match the FullGeminiURL setting, which is in the web.config file.
If all the above is true and the app still does not work then run the app with the -dc option (from the command line). This will display a detailed error message, send it to us please.

How do you check if the WSE2.0 SP3 is installed? |
||||
|
0
|
You can check this via the control panel -> Add / Remove Programs. Check to see if you have an entry: Microsoft WSE 2.0 SP3.

I have confirmed that everything is configured per your notes here and I recieve this error when attempting to login with the -dc option: "The <hrml> tag from namespace is not expected. Line 1, Position 2." Any assistance in getting this up and running would be appreciated. Also I have a suggestion: A simple way to remove bad URL entries on the login screen. I have tried about 5 times and now I know I won't remember which one works. Thanks very much, Tim |

Please try navigating to the web service using your browser. Open a new browser and navigate to http://yourserver/gemini/webservices/AuthWS.asmx What do you get? The delete function will be introduced with the next release of the desktop app.

I went to: http://myserver/gemini/webservices/AuthWS.asmx and the URL changed to: http://myserver/Gemini/Default.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fgemini%2fwebservices%2fAuthWS.asmx and it took me to the standard Gemini login screen. |

If that is the case then you are not running 2.0.2 or your web.config file is not the one that is shipped with 2.0.2. |

I just ran into this issue too, however I discovered my problem was that the web.config file that came with Gemini 2.0.2 was referencing Microsoft.Web.Services2, version 2.0.0.0 and not 2.0.3.0, which is installed on my machine. So, depending on what version of WSE is installed, the web.config entries need to be updated to reflect that version. If you are unsure, you can check the .NET 1.1 Configuration control panel and look for the WSE entry in the GAC list, and note the version number listed and update the web.config appropriately. Hope this helps... Tom |

The beta version of the desktop app does not support windows authentication. If you want to use windoes aunthentication, enter your user name (Domain\user) and your Gemini password (you can set this via the my profile web page). |

I fulfill all above mentioned points, but when trying to login I immediately get the err msg: Login error encountered. Please check username and password. But when I rename my login alias via web and try to login via GeminiDesktop it works. Also for a brand new account which I created via web the GeminiDesktop Login also works. How does it come that my initial login alias (firstname.lastname) does not work. |

I did several times, but there does not come up any detailed err msg, except: Login error encountered. Please check username and password. When I try to login in Desktop with a new login alias, I'm asked: Your username has not previously authenticated offline. Do you wish to authenticate online now? This Dialog does not come up anymore for my initial login alias: firstname.lastname, even when I add new connection settings.
|

So, does it work if you cahnge your user name but leave the password as is? Does the dialog (authenticate online) comes up if you try to log in to a different url? |

But when I put the URL of our Gemini to the Desktop tool and use firstname.lastname as alias, it does not come up. [:P] I feel it is cached somewhere.

Yes, the app is caching data. That is expected. Please try and delete the folder under C:\Documents and Settings\Your user name\Local Settings\Application Data\CounterSoft\Gemini Desktop |

Well, I am running the software on a hosted site so I have no idea what version of WES is running, etc. The url is issues.mwpx.com. Web version works great, but desktop and screen capture can't login. Server Error in '/' Application.
404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies)
could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily
unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is
spelled correctly.
|

|
The URL you are typing is wrong, should be: http://issues.mwpx.com/webservices/AuthWS.asmx (without Gemini) But it seems that you do not have WSE2.0 SP3 installed on your web servver. |

Try changing the version for WSE in the web.config file from version 2.0.0.0 to 2.0.3.0. Note that there are a couple of places to change. |

Nope, still get the invalid username/password message |

If you run the desktop app with the -dc option you will get the full exception. Please make sure the WSE2.0 SP3 is installed and not WSE3.0. |

Can't be right. The desktop app's -dc option does not change anything. Are you sure you have connected to the correct site? I have tried connected using the URL you have provided and it seems that you do not have WSE2.0 SP3 installed. |
||||
|

Well, as I mentioned it is a hosted site so I don't have control over what version of WSE is installed. |

There is nothing we can do if you can not install WSE2.0 SP3. The version of Gemini is 2.0.5. You do not need to change this in the web.config file. |

After reading through the post, I installed WSE 2.0 SP3, updated 2.0.0.0 reference to 2.0.3.0 Now I'm getting the following error: Microsoft.Web.Services2.Security.SecurityFault: An invalid security token was provided --> System.SecurityException: The incoming Kerberos service ticket could not be validated.

What the URL you are using to connect via web services? Is it the same as the FullGeminiURL? |

0

yes, I'm using the FullGeminiURL w/ "/" at the end. I also checked it against the web config, and the URL I'm using for desktop matches the webconfig. Could this problem be related to: webservicesAccessCode or WinWebServicesAccessCode These are in web.config but I didn't find anywhere I update these values on the Gemini desktop.
|

The access codes are not used by the desktop app. Are you using the server name or an IP address? |

I am unable to login with a Windows domain user with Gemini Desktop after upgrading from 2.1.1 to 3.0.4. This only happens with users on my Windows domain. I have Gemini configured for Windows authentication and I am able to login with my Windows domain users through the web app using the same user and password. I have tried 3 different domain users and get the same error with all of them. If I change my installation to point to a database that I created directly with 3.0.4, this problem does not happen and i am able to login with all users. The problem only happens with the upgraded database. I have installed WSE 2.0 SP3. The error I get in DebugView is: "WSE563: The computed password digest doesn't match that of the incoming username token." Any help would be greatly appreciated. I need to get this working by the end of this week. Thanks, Pierre |

Which version of the desktop app are you using? Gemini 3.0.4 requires WSE 3.0 installed. It might be that you are still connecting to the old 2.1.1 site? |

I am using desktop 3.0.0 (from the current downloads page release August 8th). I stared with WSE 3.0. I installed WSE 2.0 SP3 after reading some messages in this thread thinking it was a service pack for 3.0 and just realizing now that it is 2.0. I removed WSE 2.0 SP3 and and WSE 3.0 and reinstalled only WSE 3.0. I still get the same behavior. Something new: I created a new Gemini user for a Windows domain user that wasn't in Gemini yet and I am able to login with the desktop app with this user. It looks like the problem is only with domain users that were in the database before I upgraded to 3.0. Could the password hash be calculated differently? I looked at the user table for the same user in the native 3.0 database and in the upgraded database and they are different. Is the pwd field used when using Windows authentication? |
||||
|
0
|
Another Update: I copied the value of the password field from the database that is working (the one I created with version 3.0) and pasted it into the pwd field for the same user in the upgraded version that isn't working. Now that user can login. Not sure how to proceed to get all the users working... but this is a pretty good indication of where the problem is... |
||||
|
0
|
Yet another update: I changed the password for my domain account. After the change, I am able to use Gemini through the web application, but when I try to login with the desktop application, the login fails with my new password, but works with my old password. It looks like the desktop app just isn't using Windows authentication, but authenticating with the password that is stored in the database. Am I missing a setting to tell the desktop app to use Windows domain authentication? |

The current version of Desktop does not support Windows authentication. You will need to use a Gemini account with appropriate user rights to login to the Desktop application. |

Is Windows authentication support planned for a future version? |

I am unable to get Gemini Desktop working. I have installed WSE 3.0 on our Windows 2003 server (the website and database host). I put in the full URL in the block under the Administration page. I have Windows authentication setup in the Web.Config along with the forms tab. The website accepts anonymous users. I put in the full url (http://myserver/gemini/) into the block under Gemini Desktop, user ID and password (even tried the Manager userid and password), all it does it flash the "required" exclamation marks and tell me i have the wrong user id and password.
Here is the error from the log: The value of the property 'type' cannot be parsed. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Web.Services3, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. (C:\Program Files\CounterSoft\Gemini Project Issue Tracking\Gemini Web Application\web.config line 162) |

The error suggests that WSE 3.0 was not installed. Did you try rebooting the server? |

That's a bit unacceptable in an Enterprise environment (but MS doesn't seem to fully understand that when they force a reboot on a 700k security patch). I'll try it though. |
