SSH client not connecting

Question

I just purchased the full version of the terminal emulator. I was able to establish an SSH connection successfully with the trial version, but now I cannot connect to my device using the purchased product.
Before installing the full version, I removed the trial version and eliminated all references from the trial from my code.

The error I'm seeing when I try an ssh.connectasync command is:
Id = 2, Status = WaitingForActivation, Method = "{null}", Result = "{Not yet computed}"

This leads me to think I need an activation code, but the website indicates no key is necessary for the full version.

Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

Yes, for full version you don't need activation code. It seems that you are still using trial version.

If you are using NuGet version, please get your key at https://www.rebex.net/protected/nuget

Actually, you can use NuGet key for all builds. Please, give this a try.

License key can be set like this:

// Add this line to your application to set your license key 
// before working with Rebex classes.
Rebex.Licensing.Key = "==YOUR_KEY_HERE==";

Answer 2

Lukas:

I downloaded the link sent when I purchased the full version
and received: RebexTerminalEmulation-2018R1.1-Full-(a series of letters here).exe

I ran uninstall trial version and installed the above Full version, but I received the error.

So, I shouldn't need a key since I've purchased and installed the full version.

Comments

I have examined the error you got once more and I realized that the error is not related to Full or Trial versions at all. The `WaitingForActivation` is state of the Task returned by `ssh.ConnectAsync()` call.

Can you please send sample project to support@rebex.net, so we can reproduce the issue?

Lukas:

I've send a project sample to you. The zip file includes: readme, RebexTE (the .dll I created) and RebexTE-Unit Test for run against the dll file.

Thanks for your help.

Thank you for sample code.

It showed, that you are calling `ssh.ConnectAsync()`, but you never await it.

I have sent you more details and suggestion in reply to your email.

Lukas:

Thanks for the answer. After some research I decided I didn't need to connect asynchronously. I changed my code to ssh.Connect() and things worked fine.
Thanks again.
