Hello, could you please provide information regarding WAPT compatibility for agents installed on machines running Ubuntu 21.04? Thank you in advance, best regards.

(Agents on Windows/Ubuntu machines running version 2.0.0 / WAPT Enterprise version on a Debian Buster server / admin console on Windows 10)

Hi Thomas,
version 2.0 uses system Python, and the compiled libraries (pyopenssl, etc.) require the corresponding ABIs. Therefore, we only support LTS versions in version 2.0.

From version 2.1 onwards, we include Python in the WAPT agent (version 3.8.11, precisely to be less dependent on system variations). You can test a nightly build 2.1 on Ubuntu 21.04 to see: https://srvwapt-pro.tranquil.it/entrepr ... -amd64.deb (password is the same as for the .deb repository).

I'd appreciate your feedback.

Best regards,

Denis

Hello,

We were able to test this .deb package (https://srvwapt-pro.tranquil.it/entrepr ... -amd64.deb), rather than the one above (libffi 7 prerequisite), on a machine running Ubuntu 21.04. The installation went smoothly and the machine appeared correctly in the console, but as soon as we tried to install one of our packages, the machine remained in UPGRADE mode and no packages were displayed for that machine. For your information, our server is running version 2.1.

Thank you in advance,

Best regards.

Hi Thomas,

if the post is showing up correctly in the console with the WebSocket, then the service is working properly. So the recompiled Python 3.8 is OK on Ubuntu 21.04.

You should run `wapt-get update / upgrade` to see if it recognizes the package you assigned. If it doesn't, you should check if the various filtering parameters are correct (OS type, OS version, language, x86 vs. x64, etc.).

Regards,

Denis

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. Ticket resolved. The issue stemmed from the certificate not being added to the machine (the privatewaptkey.crt file was added to /opt/wapt/ssl and the wapt-get register was used).

Regards, Thomas.
