Good morning,

We are having problems with the OS deployment; the installation is stuck on the waptagent.

We have the latest version:
WAPT Server version: 2.6.0.17392
WAPT Agent version: 2.6.0.17392
WAPT Setup version: 2.6.0.17392
WAPT Deploy version: 2.6.0.17392
DB status: OK

Have you ever had this problem?
Thank you for your feedback

Good morning

You'll find our code here:

Code: Select all

  if not WadsWget(MakeUrlPath([RepoUrl,'wapt','waptagent','waptdeploy.exe']),
     MakePath([DefaultInstallDir,'waptdeploy.exe']), WaptData^.S['waptdeploy.exe'], 4000, 'Wapt Deploy Download') then
  begin
    UpdateWadsStatus('The waptdeploy.exe can not be found on the machine.', True, True);
    Exit(Result);
  end;

This would mean that the download of waptdeploy failed. Is it present and downloadable on the wapt server's web interface?

And in the correct version for the server?

Good morning,
Thank you for your feedback

It seems to me that everything is accessible and with the correct version.
But how can we be sure? Are there logs to monitor?

If I check the command prompts during deployment, I get this strange result: a ping that doesn't work

Thanks for the feedback. Could you check the hash of waptdeploy on your WAPT server? (

https://srvwapt.mydomain.lan/wads/hash.json)

and the hash of waptagent:

(https://srvwapt.mydomain.lan/wapt/waptagent.exe)

Do you have a secondary repository?

Hello,

I just checked //srvwapt.mydomain.lan/wapt/waptagent.exe the hash of https: retrieved from the webpage https://srvwapt.mydomain.lan/ in the file https://srvwapt.mydomain.lan/ .
There is no matching hash in the JSON file.

We are currently deploying secondary repositories (39) with rules, so it's quite possible the problem arose at that time. But where is the problem coming from?

I don't understand, you don't have waptagent.exe in this file at all???

Yes, but the hash doesn't match

That's strange; it's as if the agent generation didn't work.

You can try going to "Tools" -> "Sign executables" in the console and try again.

Thank you very much, the procedure worked.
However, now I am getting this error message even on machines that we have already deployed with wapt on Windows 11.
