Hello,
I will assign this to one of our dev. Do you use the SSH Rebex?

Hello,
I am not sure, I created default ssh shell entry.

Hi
The environment variable error is a minor one and should not prevent the connection. There is something else going wrong so I will need more details to solve this problem. Could you activate "Verbose" in the "Advanced" tab, attempt the connection to your Cisco device, and post the resulting logs? This would be of great help to me.

Hi,
Thanks for the logs. I believe the charset negotiation is not welcomed by your device, so we will need to add a new setting to skip this step and you should be able to connect again (the previous implementation was not doing this step). I do not know when it will be available, another developper must complete some work to integrate this change into RDM, but it should be soon.
Regards
Denis Vincent
Hello,
We've implemented the changes internally in RDM. This will be available in the next update, 2019.1.19.0.
Regards,
Hubert Mireault
We've also updated RDM Free 2019.1.3.0 to contain this change. You can reinstall the executable or download the zip file to try out the fix.

Hubert Mireault
Hi,
what do I need to change in session or global configuration to get it working ?
after reinstall prblem still exists.
regards
Hello,
Sorry for the lack of information. We've added a new option in the advanced tab called "skip environment variable setup". Checking the option should fix your issue. This option is available in RDM Free 2019.1.4.0.

Hubert Mireault
