Pairing service provides not working PowerShell script

[jhd85]

Hi

Just installed openrport version 0.9.13 and added the new pairing service URL https://pairing.openrport.io. When I try to install a Win 10 Pro client in PowerShell run as administrator I get this output:

* Testing connection to https://rport.<redacted>/ws has succeeded.

#
# -------------!!   ERROR  !!-------------
#
# Installation or updare of rport finished with errors.
#

Try the following to investigate:
1) sc query rport

2) open C:\Program Files\rport\rport.log

3) READ THE DOCS on https://kb.rport.io

4) Request support on https://github.com/cloudradar-monitoring/rport-pairing/discussions/categories/help-needed

New-Object : Exception calling ".ctor" with "3" argument(s): "End of Central Directory record could not be found."

I see there are quite a few changes with the old script. Any idea what is going on?

Thanks!

Found the issue it seems. In the downloaded PS script the client URL from rport.io is still used which provides an msi file. It gets saved as a zip and then the Expand-Archive borks when trying to extract.

Yep, can confirm download URL is not updated:

if ($v)
{
    # Set a specific version for the download url
    $url = "https://github.com/cloudradar-monitoring/rport/releases/download/$( $v )/rport_$( $v )_Windows_x86_64.zip"
    Write-Output "* Downloading  $( $url ) ."
}
else
{
    $url = "https://downloads.rport.io/rport/$( $release )/?arch=Windows_x86_64&gt=$currentVersion"
}

---

I saw URL has been updated in functions.ps1, maybe the latest version is not deployed ?

The update is coming for Windows. I created the msi package but not signed yet. I will update you when the windows installer is ready. Meanwhile you can use manual install. The last release of openrport includes msi and zip for windows.

The pairing has been updated and now support windows installer. I ll go an close the issue, feel free to reopen it if you get any more issue.
Thanks

I think there is a missing comma at line 19.

At C:\Windows\TEMP\rport-update.ps1:19 char:15
+     [Switch]$r
+               ~

Another issue is when tacoscript is installed, when updating:

* Downloading  https://downloads.openrport.io/rport/stable/latest.php?filter=Windows_x86_64.msi&gt=1.0.1.
* Download finished and stored to C:\Windows\temp\rport_stable_Windows_x86_64.msi .
* Migrating to MSI installation
* Scripts are already configured. Not changing.
* Tacoscript already installed to C:\Program Files\tacoscript\bin\tacoscript.exe

Error in line 934
    Exception calling ".ctor" with "3" argument(s): "End of Central Directory record could not be found."

Seem the URL in Install-Tacoupdate isn't managed yet.

similar issue with windows upgrade script. Script previously worked with rport.io url.

script contents:
cd $env:temp [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12 $url="https://pairing.openrport.io/update" Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -OutFile "rport-update.ps1" powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\rport-update.ps1 rm .\rport-update.ps1 -Force

output:

• Downloading https://downloads.openrport.io/rport/stable/latest.php?filter=Windows_x86_64.msi&gt=0.9.12.
• Download finished and stored to C:\Windows\temp\rport_stable_Windows_x86_64.msi .
• Migrating to MSI installation
• Scripts are already configured. Not changing.
• Tacoscript already installed to C:\Program Files\tacoscript\bin\tacoscript.exe

I am having the same issue as @gusman21
I have tracked the issue to the tacoupdate.zip and tacoinstall.zip archives being empty when downloaded.
This throws an error when trying to extract.

Current workarrount is to run the powershell script with -m to not install/update tacoscript.

cd $env:temp
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
$url="https://pairing.openrport.io/update"
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -OutFile "rport-update.ps1"
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\rport-update.ps1 -m
rm .\rport-update.ps1 -Force

Current workarrount is to run the powershell script with -m to not install/update tacoscript.

Tried the -m and got the below.

seems that error was only on my first alphabetical client which was windows 7. windows 10 clients look good. thanks for the -m.

I will push an update in the script soon to solved this issue.
Thanks for reporting it.
