Matlab & Factset: Cannot connect

Hello,

I have the Datafeed Toolbox and a valid version of Factset. So with the Database Toolbox I try to connect to Factset by first setting up the connection with the following command: factset('Username', 'SerialNumber', 'Password', 'fsid')

The following non-descriptive error then appears: Error using createtoken (line 11) Java exception occurred: java.security.InvalidKeyException: Invalid AES key length: 3 bytes

Error in makeurl (line 14) t = createtoken(usern,serial,password,cid);

Error in C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012b\toolbox\datafeed\datafeed\@factset\factset.p>factset (line 49)

Anyone dealt with this before and can offer assistance? Thank you.

This is related to false credentials or the license issues for FactSet. I suggest you to contact FactSet directly for this issue.
