Question:
I created a resource and when I test the resource I get a successful response. I can also use that resource in my project and browse to find the folder and file I want. But, when I run the project I get an error that says "authentication failed". Why does it not authenticate when I'm running the project?
Answer:
The error is likely a result of the resource password containing a dollar sign ($) character. The dollar sign is interpreted by the GoAnywhere compiler as a special character. It is recommended to encrypt the password by clicking on the encrypt button next to the password field and setting the attribute "Is Password Encrypted" to 'true'.
Resource tests ok, but get authentication failed in project
