WAPT Exit Error

Hello,

I have several computers that display a WAPT error upon restart/shutdown:

"none" is not a valid boolean. Press "OK" to ignore and risk data corruption. Press "abandon" to close the program.

Thank you.

Can you provide your wapt-get.ini file?

It seems that a string "none" is being detected.

Indeed...

Code: Select all

[waptwua]
enabled=True
default_allow=True
install_delay=
download_scheduling=2h
install_at_shutdown=None
install_scheduling=1d
filter=Type='Software'
In fact, the "install_at_shutdown" field no longer exists in the configuration editor, and that must be why it's set to "None"

Code: Select all

install_at_shutdown
Cannot be None since it is a boolean

How did this parameter get here?

Note: in the latest version of wapt this parameter no longer exists.

Since the field no longer exists, I suspect the package editor is setting it to "None" because it still appears in the configuration.
I manually deleted the field from "saved properties" to resolve the issue.
