Hello,

Console version: 2.6 Discovery.

I switched machines where the WAPT console was installed.
I retrieved my personal certificate (.crt and .pem) and imported them into the WAPT console on the new machine.
However, since then, some features are grayed out: "Check for updates" and "Start installations," in particular.
Yet, I can register and apply a package to a machine via "Edit machine."

Do you have any idea why?

It looks more like a machine disconnecting

the accessible column on the grid; is it activated?

In the reachable column, everything is marked as OK.
The status is indeed OK.
Is copying and pasting the .crt and .pem files sufficient when changing machines?

Activating the "Reachable" column makes it click OK and the features are no longer grayed out.
That's all good, thank you...

Do you have any idea why this column needs to be activated? I thought it was just for display purposes.

In the latest version of Wapt this is no longer necessary :)
