Axcrypt on command line keeps crashing

[Amaury]

Hi,

Sending this command : AxCrypt.exe -b 2000000000 -e -k “plop” -c -z “c:\watch.txt” -t, Axcrypt is lauching and is crashing immediately.

In windows event, I find this information:

Application : AxCrypt.exe
Version du Framework : v4.0.30319
Description : le processus a été arrêté en raison d’une exception non gérée.
Informations sur l’exception : System.ArgumentException
Pile :
à System.IO.Path.NormalizePath(System.String, Boolean, Int32, Boolean)
à System.IO.DirectoryInfo.Init(System.String, Boolean)
à Axantum.AxCrypt.Program.RegisterTypeFactories(System.String)
à Axantum.AxCrypt.Program.Main()

First I could suspect a path problem… but my file is really existing…!

Except in the shell mode, Axcrypt is working correctly… What is wrong with th shell mode???!!

Hello Amaury,

It looks like you are trying to use an AxCrypt 1.x command line with AxCrypt 2.x. AxCrypt 2 does not support the command line as yet (and never will quite like that, it’ll be a separate command line executable), and AxCrypt 1.x is no longer maintained although it is of course available still.

Hi, Thx Svante for your answer.

This is in fact the case. But I was precisely making some test to migrate from version 1 to version 2 and I didn’t understand why it wasn’t working.

So my next question is what is the application you are talking as “it’ll be a separate command line executable”. Is it downloadable? Is it a licensed or billable product…?

Best regards,

Amaury

Hello Amaury,

What I mean to say is that sometime in the future we’ll implement a separate command line utility for AxCrypt 2. At this time we do not have one. I am sorry.

Thx for your answer,

Surprisingly a newer solution has less functionalities than the previous one… So I guess there is no way to use an API to integrate AxCrypt 2 in a coded solution (by changing environment,…). So you confirm also that this page is obsolete (as the version AxCrypt 1.x): http://www.axantum.com/Developers.html

What would you propose so? Do we have an idea when your command-line version would be available? Is there a way to speed up that delivery?

Best regards,

Amaury

Hello Amaury,

Yes, http://www.axantum.com describes AxCrypt 1 which is no longer maintained.

There is currently no planned date for the command-line version. You can always roll your own by integrating with the source code (it’s actually not that complicated for a simple use-case). We do have other requests for this functionality so we will try to deliver something not too far in the future.
