Getting started with SmartConnector / mongoose.processor (403 forbidden error)

[David_Glasgow]

Hello community,

I am a newbie to SmartConnector and have started the training sessions.

I am currently on 

• Smart Connector Setup Processor Configuration: Chapter 4
  

When I attempt to add a reference to mongoose.processor, using the nuget pacakage manager in visual studio.  It is showing a 403 error (forbidden error).

Is there something I need to configure for proxy settings ???

NOTE - I have removed my API key from the URL below.

[SmartConnector] The V2 feed at 'https://www.myget.org/F/mongoose/auth/MyGETAPIKey/api/v2/Search()?$filter=IsLatestVersion&searchTerm='mongoose.processor'&targetFramework='uap10.0.17763'&includePrerelease=false&$skip=0&$top=26&semVerLevel=2.0.0' returned an unexpected status code '403 Forbidden'.

A few other notes:

• SmartConnector service fails to start.
• When I attempt to download the 

  Schneider Electric SmartConnector Framework Developer's license

I do not see anything and have no idea what a Machine Thumbprint might be ???

Hi! 

• SmartConnector service fails to start.

Check the logs in C:\ProgramData\SmartConnector\Logs, they might have some information that can help you understand why.

The licensing is described in chapter 7 of the installation guide. Your thumbprint is accessed through the portal, and if the SmartConnector service doesn't start, you don't have access to it

About your nuget 403 issue:

I see you're a SE employee. You're probably having issues with the Schneider proxy, you'll have to check your nuget.config file (%appdata%\NuGet\NuGet.Config) to make sure the proxy settings match up with the proxy.

I was able to get the SmartConnector service running after:
1) Uninstalling SmartConnector

2) Uninstalling SQL Express

3) Reboot

4) Reinstall SQL Express

5) Reinstall SmartConnector

Current Status:

• SmartConnector Service Running
• I can see the SmartConnector DB in the SQL Server Management Studio
• Connected using sa account and pwd
• Problem with MyGet = <string xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/10/Serialization/">The feed can not be accessed.</string>
• Using https://www.myget.org/F/mongoose/auth/47301ae6-6ab4-4a3a-b0b2-98a31d0121ee/api/v2
• Visual Studio can't access the NuGet packages

The following is my NuGet.config
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<packageSources>
<add key="SmartConnector" value="https://www.myget.org/F/mongoose/auth/47301ae6-6ab4-4a3a-b0b2-98a31d0121ee/api/v2" />

I was finally able to get access.

The e-mail from MyGet was buried in spam

Once I claimed the feed, it seems to work

I also had 403 Forbidden error although it seemed to me that I was successfully claimed feed. To be sure that you claimed feed you need to be able to access this webpage. Check this twice. I also configured proxy for my nuget
