Status is BadNotReadable when connecting to a UA server that requires user+pass

Hello.
The code looks correct.

Is there any other OPC UA client that can connect using the same username/password, and read the same node without getting the error? Unless there is a claim that other OPC UA client can do it but QuickOPC cannot, working with logs or communication captures is probably not going to reveal much useful.

Quite likely, this is server configuration issue. If the server allows the user to connect with the credentials you provided (which it does), it is then up to the server to decide whether that user can be permitted to read the node or not. And it has decided that it is not permitted. We do not generate the BadNotReadable error on our side.

Best regards

Hi,

Yes. The username and password are supplied. See below.

 
localUser = server_properties.UA_Username
localPassword = server_properties.UA_Password
UA_Security_Annonymous = False
 
        Dim gdsEndpointDescriptor As UAEndpointDescriptor =
        New UAEndpointDescriptor(gServerNameURL) _
        .WithUserNameIdentity(localUser, localPassword)
 
        If gServerType = "UA" Then
        Try
attributeData2 = easyUAClient1.Read(gdsEndpointDescriptor, szItemName)
        Catch ex As UAException
exception = ex
        End Try
        End If
 


Is it possible for the OPC component to generate a log file so that we will have better understanding of what's going on?

Thanks.

Michael

Hello.

Can you please clarify: Are you actually supplying the username+password to the server, or not?

When the server controls access to information based on the user's permission, then obviously not authenticating means that some information is not accessible.

Hi,

We are getting the "BadNotReadable" when trying to connect to a UA server that requires username + password.
We have tried it with the EasdyOPCUAdemo and the results is the same. Can you please advise?

Thank you.

Michael
