Hi Mukesh/ Jesus,

Apologies open or reply to an old thread.

I am also facing the same issue, jidoka-client-api.jar is downloaded but when I tried to download other modules for Appian RPA, those are not downloaded at all.

I am now trying with MSoutlook api module. Please let me know what i am missing here to get the MSOutlook api or any other modules.

Thanks jeromew!

It worked after updating the dll name, actually I followed the appian documentation and use the name from that seems documentation needs to updated with correct name case for dll-

Hi mukeshr0001,

I found that the name of the dll needed to be "Jacob-1.18-x64.dll" for it to work. I also had to exit any active agent on my machine.

Thanks Jesus!

After deploying my code to console and adding jacob dll in folder where appian agent utility present, i'm getting below class not found error.

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class com.jacob.activeX.ActiveXComponent

Hi Mukesh

Have you already tried deleting the contents of the C: \ Users \ your.user \ .m2 \ repository\ folder? If not, try doing it and then run the command mvn -install

Please try to do that.
