Confluence CLI: exportSpace : Bad response code 403

[Regis]

Hi Guys

I have CLI version 3.7.0, and Confluence 5.4.1.

I'm trying to export a space (not that big, about 7Mb when exported with Confluence in PDF).

I tried first exporting it in PDF, but it ends the with:

Remote error: ; nested exception is:

java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out

The connexion time out being valued with 10mn, ok, I can understand. Thus, I try an XML export, but then I get the error above mentioned.

Any idea where it comes from?

Thanks for your help

1. For the timeout, see the connectionTimeout parameter
2. For the download error, that is a Confluence problem that appeared in 5.4.1 and is fixed in 5.4.3 - CONF-32094. Also ACLI Release 3.8 implemented a workaround.

Hi Bob,

We are getting "Client error: Bad response code (403) received trying to retrieve data from URL" when trying to export a space too, and this on confluence 5.5.. We use confluence-cli-3.9.0.jar Might the same bug have resurfaced?
