I can only access data through a guest account

[Stephen Cremin]

I have the lardawge-rfm (1.4.1.2) gem installed, running Ruby 1.8.7 (ree-1.8.7-2010.02). My remote Filemaker Server is version 11.0.1.99.

I can connect to my server using a guest account which has a a custom privilege set called "Web" that is set to only "Access via XML Web Publishing - FMS only (fmxml)". But when I create a new account with its own username and password, also set to the privilege set "Web", I cannot connect through it.

The error I get is: "Rfm::AuthenticationError: The account name () or password provided is not correct (or the account doesn't have the fmxml extended privilege)."

I am sending the username and password in the hash sent to Rfm::Server.new().

Has anybody else experienced this before?

How do you have Data Access and Design set up? Does the privilege set
have access to the layout?

Thanks. Good suggestions.

I was able to fix the problem by changing the ":username" hash key
sent to Server.new to ":account_name".

I guess it's a case of the Github README documentation being ahead of
the code.

I'll be back for more advice!
