During the duration of my role as primary support for SUP ODP issues, I noticed that every time customers use SUP ODP, right from the initial stages, some clarifications and queries that arise could be resolved by doing some check points. With my experience, I have compiled the most FAQ’s and the answers for the same. This should help anyone who faces any issues during the usage of SUP ODP.
1Q: I am facing few issues during request / response. I want to check the server and client logs to try figure out the problem. How and where can I find the
relevant logs?
A:On the problematic server, enable debug logging so as to check the obtained response from backend Gateway URL, when request is fired from SUP server.
Follow the below steps to set the log level to debug:
- From SCC admin interface in the left navigation pane, expand the Servers folder
and select a server name. - Select Log. In the right administration pane select unwired server tab followed
by settings tab. - Set the log level for Proxy and MMS to debug and click on save.
- Register a user with SUP server. After successful registration when the device
status is online in Application connections tab of SCC, select the application
connection and click on the properties button.
In the properties window, select the Device advanced tab and set the debug trace
level to 5 and click ok.
With this, required logs will be generated on client and servers.
The client logs can be retrieved on server as a text file by making modifications
to a configuration file. Follow the below steps to do the same.
- In the installation directory of SUP, navigate to the location
<UnwiredPlatform_InstallDir>\Server\UnwiredServer\config.
2. In the OnlineProxy.properties file, set the value of DUMP_CLIENT_LOGS property to True.
3. Restart the server for the configuration changes to take effect.
4. Now from the SCC administrative interface in the left navigation pane, select the Applications node.
5. In the right administration pane, click Application Connections tab.
6. Select an application connection, with which you have issues and click Get Trace. The application connection status must be "online" to retrieve the logs.
7. Click OK.
Make sure after some time the client log is saved as a text file in the location:
<UnwiredServer_InstallDir>\Servers\UnwiredServer\logs\OnlineProxy\.
Server logs can be found at the below location.
<UnwiredServer_InstallDir>\Servers\UnwiredServer\logs
Please note: Undo all the above changes to restore the server back to original state.

3Q: I am trying to register my application to the SUP server. However, I am getting the error “Error: 558 Message: 'Could not connect to server. Verify Relay Server URL Template'. What could be wrong?

A:This error is encountered when a physical device, say with id “00225ad26d9dad117236447f7f9da25a83ab0f57”, is already registered to SUP, but
is once again being used to carry out new registration. Delete the existing device through the available API and then try registration.

You can avoid this error by using the “clear server verification key API” in your app.

10Q: While trying request response, the application is throwing error “Error: 403 Message: Forbidden. ” What could be wrong?
A: User would have used url1 while creating Application ID/ Template, this will be whitelisted automatically. But if user changes Application Endpoint in the application template or application id, then the new url has to be manually whitelisted.
Problem can be fixed by following the below steps to whitelist url:
- In SCC navigate to Domains -> default -> Connections
- Click on “Connections” tab
- Click on the “New” button
- Give a name to your connection pool
- Select “Proxy” from drop down “Connection pool type”
- Give new endpoint as address and save
This should whitelist your URL in SUP server.
11Q: How can I know which version of SUP I am using?
A: The version of the SUP can be found by following the below steps:
In SCC navigate to: View -> Open -> Resource Explorer
Click on “Resource Explorer”.
In the resulting popup, you would be able to find out the version of SUP.
12Q: While trying request response, the application is throwing error “Error: 401.” What could be wrong?

being retrieved is wrong.
Check the username / password being passed.
