Hello,
Below is my configuration:
WAPT Server version: 1.7.4 on Debian 9
WAPT Agent version: 1.7.4.6229
Database status: OK (1.7.4.0)
Windows 10 console on Oracle VM VirtualBox

Following JRES, I am testing WAPT and starting on packaging. I don't know Python, but I have done development in other languages in the past.

Here's my problem: I have an executable that doesn't set a version number in the registry, even though the number exists in the executable's metadata. Therefore, I get the error: "version in registry does not match requirements of min version". I saw a solution in November 2019 with the get_installed_version , but I have the impression that it no longer exists (I haven't seen it in setuphelpers, or I don't know how to use it).
Can you help me?

Good morning

Here is an example:
https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-common- ... -if-needed

Code: Select all

   def versnaps2(key):
       return key['name'].replace('NAPS2 ','')

   install_exe_if_needed('naps2-5.3.3-setup.exe',silentflags='/VERYSILENT',key='NAPS2 (Not Another PDF Scanner 2)_is1',get_version=versnaps2)

You need to create a function that accepts an argument (the uninstallkey)
Your function must be able to retrieve the version number from elsewhere, for example: file properties, registry database, etc.

In the naps example, we retrieve the version from the software name (we retrieve the name from key)

Okay, thank you for your reply. I'm not very proficient in Python yet, and I'm still working on consulting the WAPT documentation
