Issue/Introduction

Error when running ssecls test against ICAP Secure enabled scanner: Unable to process file

Environment

Release : 8.2.2

Cause

Misconfigured command line.

Resolution

We ran the command line as follows:

ssecls.exe -secure true -verifycert true -cacertfile "<Location of the .PEM file>" -pvtkeypass "<cert password>" -server x.x.x.x:11344:0:true <location and name of a test file to scan>

This worked to test the success of the SPE scanner in ICAP secure mode.
