step by step method to upload files to raspberry pi

[tshoman]

Using RapidScada 5.8, after configuring the project on Windows what would be the steps to tranfer files to Raspberry Pi 3. The following method I see described in the forum so far seems to be an old method, and no longer recommended.

i.e transfer files as follows:

C:\SCADA\BaseDAT
C:\SCADA\Interface
C:\SCADA\ScadaComm\Config
C:\SCADA\ScadaServer\Config except ScadaServerSvcConfig.xml
C:\SCADA\ScadaWeb\config

What are steps in the new method. Which files are to be copied.

In Rapid SCADA v5.8 it’s easy to transfer the configuration.
You should create a new deployment profile in Administrator. Set RPi’s IP address and other profile parameter. Then upload the configuration to RPi. Don’t forget that in Linux you need different directories for SCADA-Server. Before switching from Windows to Linux, change the directories in Server configuration (using Administrator).

Thanks for response Mikhail

I managed to create the deployment profile. However, upon testing there is an error – Unable to Login-Invalid Usernane or password. I tried 2 different username/password 1) default login for scada (admin) and 2) default for Rpi (pi) both cannot login. I also left the port number as is (10002).

As for the secret key, should I click to generate one automatically or I can type my own key.

Anything I’m doing wrong.

Regards.

In RPi find the file /opt/scada/ScadaAgent/Config/ScadaAgentConfig.xml
The secret key in the file must be the same as the secret key in the configuration profile.

In Administrator you should export the User table to user.dat and copy to /opt/scada/BaseDAT

To get more info about error, see /opt/scada/ScadaAgent/Log/ScadaAgent.log

Hi Mikhail

I followed all the steps above:

1) copied secret key from /opt/scada/ScadaAgent/Config/ScadaAgentConfig.xml and pasted it in profile.

2) Generated (exported) user.dat from Scada Admin in Windows and saved it to Rpi in /opt/scada/BaseDAT

I still can’t login and the error generated now is Insuffient rightds. I’m logging in with default login for scada ( i.e admin ) which I have not changed.

The error log is pasted below. Please advice me how to proceed. Regards.

Hi,

You should use ScadaAdmin user to connect. Check that ScadaAdmin exists in the Users table.
