We were able to reproduce the problem.

In our tests, there were no issues since we followed the documentation:

https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/Installation ... du-serveur. The

`/etc/hostname` and `/etc/hosts` files should return the server's FQDN: srvwapt.mydomain.lan.

In your case, the name displayed must be a short name, I assume.

We'll implement a fix anyway.

No short name, I do have the FQDN name in both files

Perhaps you could post in a different topic because your problem is clearly different.

It's working again, however I'm getting errors when running WAPTDeploy

Code: Select all

In my opinion, it will work better if we execute it with the argument:

Code: Select all

--waptsetupurl=http://wapt.mydomain.lan/wapt/waptagent.exe
Note that you must specify http and not https

Despite using the --waptsetupurl parameter, I'm still getting the same error. It manages to download, but it's as if it can't complete a task. Visually, it seems to crash when the service tries to register with the server (since the IP address is the client's localhost)...

At the end of the installation, waptdeploy sends a request to http://127.0.0.1:8088/update to force the local wapt service (which has started by this point) to retrieve the index of available packages.
The error is likely due to this; that is, the service hasn't fully started yet, and waptdeploy isn't waiting long enough.

You can try with waptdeploy version 1.5.1.23: https://wapt.tranquil.it/wapt/releases/ ... deploy.exe

I probably also had some machine issues, because I tried again on new machines, and it worked without any problems. So, on the older ones, what I usually do is delete the WAPT client and reinstall it manually (this is quite rare because I use the --force parameter, which works very well).

I'll manage, because our organization has decided to change our deployment solution to an all-in-one (the KACE solution from Qwest). It's a shame because I was really starting to get used to WAPT (even creating packages).

Good luck, our emotions are with you.

There's room for those who deliver and room for those who make promises. Your bosses needed to make a quick decision, that's all. They saw it, it's a good brand, so they went for it, right? The elected officials don't understand and they're bombarded by salespeople from other companies.

Keep learning and training on WAPT, it's the thing that's going to emerge, so your answers to your bosses will very soon become your own, very effective and very relevant.
