  • 1.  Uploading to a clients faspex5 - docker & issue BAD Request ?

    Edited by George P 2 days ago

    Hi All, 

    I am trying to upload to a client's faspex5 server using the docker container (martinlaurent/ascli). In the account settings I have provided the public key in PEM format (under account settings), and I have been provided with the clientID and the client_secret . I am trying using the below command but I am getting bad request issues 

    docker run --rm -t -v {MapFolderSource}:{MapFolderInDocker} martinlaurent/ascli faspex5 package send --url="https://{DNS}.com/aspera/faspex" @json:'{"title": "title","recipients":["Shared inboxe NAME"]}' TESTFile.mov --client_id="XXXXXXX" --username=YYYY --client-secret="secret_key_here" --private_key="@file:rsa.pem"

    Check that your JWT payload matches the required specification. Error: - Invalid subject (Aspera::RestCallError)

    status: Bad Request

    code: 2019

    trace: 61d69508-09f2-4bc5-a6de-65d257e5c589

    {server} 400 Bad Request

    What shall I adjust in order to have a successful upload?

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    Maybe execute in debug mode (--log-level=debug) and give the jwt payload (without secrets), like:

    jwt_payload (json)=
    {
      "exp": 1721231001,
      "nbf": 1721227101,
      "iat": 1721227102,
    "jti": "some-uuid",
    "iss": "client-id-uuid",
    "aud": "client-id-uuid",
    "sub": "user:john@example.com"
    }

    The container version is a little behinbd the latest version, maybe validate if you get the same error with the local ascli (with local ruby).

    Hi Laurent, 
    Thanks for your speedy reply 

    This is what I see with debug on : 

    "auth": {
        "type": "oauth2",
        "base_url": "https://DNS.SERVER/aspera/faspex/auth",
        "grant_method": "jwt",
        "client_id": "CLIENT.ID",
        "jwt": {
          "payload": {
            "iss": "CLIENT.ID",
            "aud": "CLIENT.ID",
            "sub": "user:USERNAME"
          },
          "private_key_obj": "🔑",
          "headers": {
            "typ": "JWT"
          }
        }
      }

    and 

    JWT jwt_payload=[
    {:exp=>1721237580, 
    :nbf=>1721233680, 
    :iat=>1721233681, 
    :jti=>"88b7d933-2833-4a9a-b19f-6e444886c563", 
    :iss=>"CLIENT.ID", 
    :aud=>"CLIENT.ID", 
    :sub=>"user:USERNAME"}]

    hope this helps to get to the bottom of the issue  :)

    Well, that seems ok,

    I have pushed container version 4.18, so update the image, i.e. use: docker.io/martinlaurent/ascli:latest

    See if it's better.

    Also check the version of the faspex server with command: ascli faspex5 version

    Posted yesterday

    Note that this error may be due to an unknown user id (email) in Faspex 5, I get the same error by using a wrong user id:

    $ ascli faspex5 packages list --username=wrong@example.com
    ERROR: Rest: Check that your JWT payload matches the required specification. Error: - Invalid subject
    status: Bad Request

    Hi Laurent, 

    Thanks for your feedback and investigation. I have tried the latest build, but I still have the same error/issue.

    Can you please confirm that from what you can see above, the command used is correct and should be working without issues .. yes ? 
    In the username option, i am using the username i have to login to the WEB UI, and not the email associated to this account. 

    I will escalate with the client, maybe its something they have not enabled (or a config error) to allow me to use command line tools to upload. 

    Regards
    George

    The username to be used for authentication is the user's email address.

    By default, the user's "name" (property) in Faspex5 is the same as the email.

    I can happen that a user's "name" is not equal to the email, in case of upgrade from Faspex 4, or use of API for creation (which I did to show here):

    ascli faspex5 -Pf5admin admin accounts create @json:'{"name":"toto","email":"aspera.user1+123@gmail.com","last_name":"toto","first_name":"titi"}'

    For example, I have those users configured, as in picture.

    If I use username=toto, then I get the same error, if I use username=aspera.user1+123@gmail.com, then authentication works.

    ascli faspex5 --username=aspera.user1+123@gmail.com packages list

    By changing the --username= to be the email address of the account (and not the account name), the transfer started and completed without issues. 

    Thanks for your help and assistance!
