Step by Step scenario
  1. Create a new version in AIP Console by using AIP Console tools
  2. The task fails immediately with the error: ERROR --- Error occurred while attempting to upload the given file.
Action Plan

The issue occurs because the  path defined after the argument -f in the command is not a file path ( It is a folder path)

<Folder containting om.castsoftware.aip.console.tools.1.28.0-funcrel>java -jar .\aip-console-tools-cli.jar add --apikey="XVEM9CJ1.vl8u3lPg1IJpfnUtQzjKD0XgcmDAiFSA" -n "TKT_CRIF" -f "C:\Users\SKS\Downloads" --verbose=false

To troubleshoot the issue, 

  1. Change the path defined after argument -f  to a file path pointing to the zip as shown below

    <Folder containting om.castsoftware.aip.console.tools.1.28.0-funcrel>java -jar .\aip-console-tools-cli.jar add --apikey="XVEM9CJ1.vl8u3lPg1IJpfnUtQzjKD0XgcmDAiFSA" -n "TKT_CRIF" -f "C:\Users\SKS\Downloads\abc.zip" --verbose=false
