My PC is not registering with WADS

Hello,

I'm new to the forum and to using WAPT.

I'm currently testing WAPT's features, including WADS OS deployment.
After struggling a bit with the DHCP server,
I can now boot from a PC using WinPE network. Up to TASK #3 SERVER DATA in the WADS window,
in the current task log, I get the following messages:

Retrieving disk information,
Registering host on server,
Error from server: ("success":false,"msg":You have to log in with proper credentials", error code":"").

Plus a "Registration Successful" window.

But! My host isn't showing up in the console.

I'm using a Windows Server 2019 for the WAPT server and a Windows 11 for the WAPT console.

Thank you for your feedback and answers.

Hello

, during installation did you enable authentication on WADs?

Hello,

I just reinstalled the server, checking the following options:
Allow machines to register on the server without authentication,
Enable OS deployment,
Enable authentication on OS deployment
, and Install the TFTP server for WADS.

I entered a username and password (the same one requested when launching the console).
I also rebooted the server.

The same error still appears on the host in task 3 of WADS, and no machines are showing up in the OS Deployment console.

Thank you for your help.

Hello,

I resolved my host-on-server registration issue by creating a new user with admin privileges.

I've completed several tasks and am now stuck on Task 5: ISO with the message "
Running ISO download
TFileStream Ex.Create(c:\cd.iso.part) failed as ERROR_PATH_NOT_FOUND".

Thank you for your help.
