Tranquil IT Forum

Hello,
I have a technical problem. On my test environment, when I deploy the WAPT client (via GPO),
my client workstations don't have the WAPT tray launched at startup.
Your documentation states: "WAPTtray opens at session startup if the option was selected during installation. It is placed in the taskbar upon login."
However, since my installation is automatic and silent, I cannot select this option.

Thank you in advance for your help.

P.

See https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/Installation ... waptdeploy

Add to your GPO command line for waptdeploy

If you are not using waptdeploy but directly using waptagent.exe:
waptagent.exe /VERYSILENT /MERGETASKS= ""autorunTray""

Hello,
thank you! I'll try it!
What's the difference between deploying waptdeploy and waptagent?

Regards,
Jocelyn

Hello Jocelyn,

• waptdeploy.exe allows you to run a lightweight binary (150KB) to verify that the WAPT agent installed on the machine is the correct version and, if necessary, proceed with its installation from the WAPT server by downloading the agent (waptagent.exe)
• waptagent.exe is the WAPT agent installer containing the public certificate.

For more details, please consult the documentation: https://www.wapt.fr/fr/doc/Installation ... index.html

Sincerely,

Alexander

Thank you for this information; I will incorporate it for future agent deployments.

Regarding WAPT agents already deployed, is it possible to modify their configuration to display the agent in the notification area?

Oops, I typed too quickly.

After performing a manual installation, I have the answer to my question. WAPT appears in the notification area using two shortcuts placed in the startup menu of all users:

WAPT session setup: "C:\wapt\wapt-get.exe session-setup ALL"
WAPT Tray Helper: "C:\wapt\wapttray.exe"

Last question: What is the purpose of running WAPT session setup using the command indicated above?
