[RESOLVED] Waptexit

[CyrilM]

Hello,

I'd like to use the `propose-upgrade` command to execute a `waptexit`.
I need to know the available options, please.

My ultimate goal is to restart the computer after forcing a `waptexit`.

My package launches an HTA interface; it has a message and a countdown timer.
At t=0, the `waptexit` is launched from the HTA, and when it finishes, the PC restarts (shutdown with a timer and a planned comment - using JavaScript in the HTA to launch `waptexit` and the shutdown).

I just need an option to restart after a `waptexit`; otherwise, the idea would be to check if the process is still active and restart when it's no longer running, but I don't think that's ideal.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,

I haven't received an answer to my previous question, but I'm making progress anyway.
And I'm encountering another problem:

When I try to install a package from the command line via a batch file or scheduled tasks, I get this error
(from the batch file): 401 client error: could not verify your access level for that URL
(from the task scheduler): return code 2147943691 (I saw online that it's a permissions issue)

Command line executed: wapt-get.exe -S -f install sdis77-tache-maj-NEXSIS
I've raised the permissions to the maximum and am using the System account.

Do you have any idea what the problem might be, please?

Good morning

The options are documented here:
https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-console ... it-utility

Furthermore, there is:

https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/wapt-console ... se-feature

Code: Select all

waptpython -c "from waptservice.enterprise import start_waptexit ;start_waptexit('',{'only_priorities':False,'only_if_not_process_running':True, 'install_wua_updates':False,'countdown':300},'schtask')"

which I think should be useful in your case

Thanks for the feedback.

I'll try the command; however, it only partially answers the question.

Is it normal not to be able to execute this command line from a task or batch script:
wapt-get.exe -S -f install

[sfonteneau]

If you go through

Code: Select all

-S

The installation goes through the service, so it requires authentication. Therefore, it won't work as a scheduled task.

Use in this case:

Code: Select all

-D

tells the wapt-get command to bypass the service and connect directly.

The scheduled task, however, will need to be launched as administrator.

Cyril,
Here are the two commands launched as the system account via psexec; do not use -S:

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\system32>wapt-get install -S -f tis-test

Thank you gentlemen for your replies.

The scheduled task worked correctly with the -D parameter instead of -S.

I will also test with pscexec.

Many thanks for your help.
