Hello Matt,

This is probably a result of the difference between the StarTeam server and
client versions.
I would recommend you to test several different SDK. For example I know that
SDK 6.0 works well with server 5.2, unlike SDK with higher versions.

First of all, I would try SDK 5.1, because your server is 5.1.

The problem is that we can only find the client installer for 5.1, nothing else. Do you know where I can find SDK 6.0? I've tried the SDK that came with 5.2 but I'm still getting that error. We would just upgrade if version 5.2 of the software wasn't released 6 years ago. We're just a bit wary upgrading considering it will be long past supported. Our current exact versions are as follows:

Client: 5.1.373
Server: 5.1.373

Thanks,
Matt
