No file in deployment

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to deploy some apllications using ocs but my server doesn't seem to want to create the packages.

When i click on validate it tells me the package has been created but the folder is empty.

i checked and i have no errors in apache and the folder with the timestamps and a file "info" is created but it's content seems odd : 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<DOWNLOAD ID="1680268431" PRI="5" ACT="LAUNCH" DIGEST="" PROTO="HTTPS" FRAGS="0" DIGEST_ALGO="MD5" DIGEST_ENCODE="Hexa" NAME="executable.exe -S" NOTIFY_USER="0" NOTIFY_TEXT="" NOTIFY_COUNTDOWN="" N$

it's my first time trying deployment so i've certainly made an error but i don't find it.

Does anyone have an idea ? thanks by advance

Hi @sphinx,

What version of the OCS server are you using? Did you install all the dependencies correctly?

Is this folder empty (/var/lib/ocsinventory-reports/download/1680268431/) ?

About creating your package:

If old version, is it a ZIP file that you sent with the "executable.exe" file as content?

My test with a package deployment on OCS server v. 2.11.1 :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<DOWNLOAD ID="1680862042" PRI="5" ACT="LAUNCH" DIGEST="cd1a025ac90e725ed85d2849397e6c51" PROTO="HTTP" FRAGS="1" DIGEST_ALGO="MD5" DIGEST_ENCODE="Hexa" NAME="executable.exe -S" NOTIFY_USER="0" NOTIFY_TEXT="" NOTIFY_COUNTDOWN="" NOTIFY_CAN_ABORT="0" NOTIFY_CAN_DELAY="0" NEED_DONE_ACTION="0" NEED_DONE_ACTION_TEXT="" GARDEFOU="rien" />

It seems that your executable file was not well chosen...

Hi, thanks for answering,

My version is 2.10.0, I installed it a few months ago so I don't really remember but I don't think there was a problem with any dependecy, how can I check that?

for the folder /var/lib/ocsinventory-reports/download/1680268431/ there's only the info file (showed in my first post) and nothing else.

Answer 3

Indeed, you have errors in the construction of the info file... and certainly for the sending of the executable file in the OCS server.

Have you tried deploying a package using the old method?

Deployment > Build > Operating system > Windows > Others > Custom package

Same issue ?

Were the OCS server installation sources from a stable or nightly release ?

Answer 4

Custom packages doesn't work either, it ends up the same way.

I don't really remember but i'm pretty sure it was a stable version.

Answer 5

Hi, I am facing the same issue. Have you sorted it out?
