I downloaded the dev kit and copied over the auth app to my device. Enabled Shell Authentication via

config.login.require = true;

config.login.page = "http://127.0.0.1:83/UserDrive/apps/auth/login.html";

However, on rebooting the device I get a blank screen and my login page is not displayed.

What else do I need to do to use the Shell Autth?

I am poring over the Programming Documentation but there is no additional inof.

TIA

You are telling the device to show a login page local on the device, and it sounds like that page is not there. If you copy in the folders from "Sample UserDrives\Full Sample User Drive\UserDrive" from the developer's toolkit, you can see a sample app showing how this works.

Daniel,

I have copied over the auth application from the toolkit which is why I am surprised this does not work.

The login.html page exists in /UserDrive/apps/auth

I am not sure what else needs to be done

Thanks

When you look at the device

When you look at the device in Mass Storage mode from your PC, you are looking at the root of \UserDrive, so you don't want to create a new UserDrive folder in there, because you will now actually have \UserDrive\UserDrive. Also, be aware that while the USB cable is attached to your PC, the device cannot see \UserDrive, so you need to disconnect the USB cable, then either log out of the device or reboot for it to find the files. I just tried this on my device running OS28, and it worked, so if it is still not working for you, may be a good idea to update the device if you are not already running OS28.

Daniel

Thanks for the quick response. I dont have a /UserDrive under /UserDrive. Now, I am just getting started on SB1 programming. The Software version screen has this on my device

OS Version: 01.01.27

RhoElements verson: 2.1.1.11

App Folder verson: 26.2.3.5

SB1 Shell Version: 2.6.3

How do I update the OS to build 28? Any link to download the update would be helpful

Thanks
