Illegal or Unrecognized Value in Parameter

[troy....@coveros.com]

Hello!

I'm trying to automatically authenticate a user on a web application, login, and then spider and scan the site. However, when running the script, an error is produced with the text "Provided parameter has illegal or unrecognized value (illegal_parameter) : scriptName". Several different attempts at modifying the "scriptName" value to resolve this error have been attempted, but none, as of yet, have succeeded. Has anyone here encountered this seemingly syntax-based issue, or one similar to it, before? If so, what value format or other solution did you use to resolve said issue?

Thank you for your time!



The offending lines seem to be 30 and 31.

Hi.

That error happens because the authentication scripts can not be enabled
(nor disabled).
Setting the script to a context it's enough for it to be used.

Best regards.

Hello, and thank you for the response!

I must be honest, I'm not sure what you mean by "setting the script to a context". What exactly would this entail, or what criteria needs to be fulfilled for a script to be "set to a context"?

Hi.

With that I mean, set/use it as a Script-Based Authentication method in
a context. [1]
