authentication failed

[Taufiqueshaikh24]

I am using pfsense version 2.7.0

My credentials.sample.ini
[PFFApmZct0c2GNW6AC5spIFs]
secret = hwcf7405cGl3WZmsUWwi1KohbI3XDHZZhhnEIXzXLOygsxK8n45ts7Owbex3
permit = alias_, config_, gateway_, rule_, send_, system_, function_*
comment = example key PFFApmZct0c2GNW6AC5spIFs - hardcoded to be inoperative

I am using typescript fauxapi-client

import {FauxApiClient, IFauxApiResponse} from 'faux-api-client';

const fauxApiClient = new FauxApiClient(
'192.168.0.100',
'PFFApmZct0c2GNW6AC5spIFs',
'hwcf7405cGl3WZmsUWwi1KohbI3XDHZZhhnEIXzXLOygsxK8n45ts7Owbex3'
);

fauxApiClient.getConfiguration()
.then((success: IFauxApiResponse) => {
console.log('#################################################');
console.log('# SUCCESS #');
console.log('#################################################');
console.log(JSON.stringify(success));
})
.catch((error: Error) => {
console.log('#################################################');
console.log('# ERROR #');
console.log('#################################################');
console.log(JSON.stringify(error));
});

Error : -

[ndejong]

The logs are telling you that you don't have the file /etc/fauxapi/credentials.ini

Perhaps you edited the file credentials.sample.ini and did not renam it to credentials.ini

[Taufiqueshaikh24]

The error is resolved my credentails file was already named as credentials.sample.ini after i renamed it to credentials.ini the issue has been resolved . Thanks for your support sir :)
