[SOLVED] Asking workstations to forget a package that failed to install

Hello,

I have a large number of workstations showing an error in my console because a package failed to install on the computers (Adobe Reader... an Adobe product).

I removed it from the list of packages on my workstations, but the error persists. In the console, half of the workstations are still showing an error.

How can I ask the client to permanently remove this package?
Is it possible from the console? (I can't seem to do it.)
Better yet, what command should I run on the workstations?

Thank you.

So I removed it from the list of packages on my workstations. But the error remains. In the console, I still have half of the workstations showing an error.

If the machines are powered on, you can select all of them, then in the list of packages on the right, right-click on the package you want to forget and choose "forget". Otherwise, you can create a configuration package using the command line WAPT.forget('mypackage').

Sincerely,

Denis

Thank you

, do you have an example of such a package?

If not, what command would need to be executed in the Windows command line?

something like

Code: Select all

def install():
    WAPT.forget('tis-monpaquet')
If the radios are switched on, the simplest solution remains multi-selection.
