Problem

The Aquila Replication software (aqrepl.exe) is unable to connect to the WinCGI app server module located at https://nwww.mdsas.nhs.uk/ibid/cgi-bin/aquilaweb.exe/bin.

The error message returned is "Invalid binary header. Either incompatible or not a binary message". This error is generated from the client-side channel component in aqrepl.exe when it does not received the correct format of reply from the app server. It is always followed by the first 500 characters of the actual reply received.

In this case the full error message is:

Error copying replication data to http://10.195.1.71/ibid/cgi-bin/aquilaweb.exe/bin - Invalid binary header. Either incompatible or not a  binary message.
