Difficulty establishing session

I am effectivly trying to crash-course learn LAPI. Few, if anyone, is familiar with C/C++ LAPI at my company. I am having difficulty with establishing a successful session. I have tried implementing the example LAPI calls that come with the documentation. When it tries to allocate the session using LL_SessionAlocEx per the documentation:

status = LL_SessionAllocEx(&Session, server, port, "", user_name, user_pw, NULL);

I get

"Session failure status is -2147418076 <0x80010024>
Server router packet error."

When I try to set up the configuration as follows

if (status == LL_OK) status = LL_ValueSetAssoc(config);
if (status == LL_OK) status = LL_AssocSetInteger(config, "HTTPS", LL_TRUE);
if (status == LL_OK) status = LL_AssocSetString(config, "HTTPUserName", user_name);
if (status == LL_OK) status = LL_AssocSetString(config, "HTTPPassword", user_pw);
if (status == LL_OK) status = LL_AssocSetInteger(config, "VerifyServer", LL_FALSE);
if (status == LL_OK) status = LL_AssocSetString(config, "LiveLinkCGI", "/admin/llisapi.dll");

I get:

"Session Failure Status is -2147418072 <0x80010028>
Encryption not available with this version. Could not load LLSSL library."

I cannot fidn LLSSL.dll in the bin path or anywhere in the installed files. Can I download it somewhere?

Lastly, if I simplify the configuration to just ensure a secure connection:

status = LL_SessionAllocEx(&Session, server, port, "", user_name, user_pw, LLVALUE(1));

I get the following error from my compiler:

Exception thrown at 0x1000BFA4 (lapi_base.dll) in MetaDataXfer.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000001.
Unableto read memory.

Can someone provide me some direction?

Some of my research has suggested that the problem might be that I need to ensure that the DLL libraries I have installed are the same version. I've looked into the versions of the DLL files I do have. The majority of them are version 9.7.1.393. However, lapi_netp.dll is version 9.7.0.0, lapi_nets.dll is version 9.6.0.0, and I cannot determine the versions of lapi_sspip.dll and lapi_sspis.dll. How do I bring them all up to the same version?

To me it sounds like Client LAPI problems ,however I do not program in C/C++ and most of my attempts at LAPI has been with .NET or Java

It is also a deprecated API from OT as OT wants all of us to use WebServices (about an hours setup in your company) or REST(You just have to be other kickb*** version of LL)

A few years back when LAPI was not a bad word in OT programming OT provided this

I sometimes still experiment with LAPI some of my public work is here

as well as here

if your Livelink server is CS16 there is nothing server side to do anything with your lapi client.

Mostly I can make do with .NET by downgrading my .net version etc.

Sorry can't be much more help than to advise to switch to Content WebServices which will help you with your endeavor much better.

I also remember this from old times.There used to be a product called "Livelink Secure Connect" that needed to be installed if at all your LLserver was actually HTTP(S)

So either check if your livelink server that ends in /admin/llisapi.dll actually is listening on a https port.

If the application is to be done within a company network it may be possible to just configure a livelink server to listen http and execute lapi code if it is less than Server 16

however there is always the possibility of you sending lapi userid/password in cleartext when you do that.
