IllegalStateException when calling applyUsageRights

[Former Community Member]

Hi,



I'm trying to apply usage rights to a pdf document using a ReaderExtensionsServiceClient object.

When I call applyUsageRights() I get an exception:



----------------------------------------------------------------------

java.lang.IllegalStateException

I see there is a null value being passed as the credential password, I may be wrong but I thought all the credentials Adobe supplied were encrypted. Also "RE2" doesn't sound like a valid credential name (all the ones I've seen started 000).



I always try to call getCredentialUsageRights before I make a call to Reader Extensions to detect whether the credential exists and whether it has the permissions I need to set. Have you tried calling this method with the credential name and password to see what comes back?
