I had an issue that drove me insane today. While attempting to push a few changes to the Broadworks Call Center App. I was adamant that I had entered the correct values on the “Deployment” tab, yet I kept receiving this error:
(all IPs, domains and usernames have been changed)

This error didn’t seem like it was telling the truth, so I went to the source : The OCSLog file on the server hosting OCI.

Ok… no big deal, I can add the username in question. I logged into the NS and added the user to “NS_CLI/SubscriberMgmt/Administrator/User>”.

NS_CLI/SubscriberMgmt/Administrator/User> get

Administrator ID  =  adminusername@my.default.domain
  Name            =  Name, Admin
  Access Level    =  System Provider

Tried it again, the same error punched me in the face.

I took a wild guess and add the user to ” NS_CLI/SubscriberMgmt/Administrator/HostingNEUser>”

NS_CLI/SubscriberMgmt/Administrator/HostingNEUser> get bwas userID adminusername@my.default.domain
          Administrator ID  Subscriber Maintenance Partition
============================================================
  adminusername@my.default.domain

1 entry found.

SUCCESS! This finally let me in. Hopefully this saves someone else a ridiculous amount of troubleshooting time.
