"No Events Found" from sps.exe

Post by joe.mag »

I want to subscribe to events so I'm reading the aptly-named "Susbscribe to Events" page in the documentation. I run sps.exe with the "events" command line argument assuming that since I'm running with Windows authentication I can leave the /user option out. I get back the following (server URL altered for privary's sake):

C:\Program Files\SoftPro\Select>sps.exe events /s:http://<my server>:8080
No events found.

Which appears to rather end our exploration of events from the outset!

As far as I can tell events aren't documented anywhere but in the code so w/ this kind of response I can get nowhere. I ran the command on the server as well just in case.

Also, is it just me or is hard to search this forum? I tried "no events found" and the search never respected by use of double quotes.

Hi Joe,

This may be a typo in our SDK documentation, thanks for bringing it to our attention. What you are looking for is argument services rather than events. services lists all available endpoints and their associated events that you can tap into.

Code: Select all

sps.exe services /server:http://<your server>:8080
As far as the forum search feature, as you mentioned it seems to be dropping the quotes. I can forward this to our forum admin and see what they have to say.

Event subcriptions can also be found in the dbo.EventSubscriptions table in the SoftPro database.
