Hi @rbkadiyam , thank you for your reply.
Is “ADWebCA01” something related to the control room link which we need to download the certificate? because i dont see ADWebCA01 there

Use the following command to import the certificate in the keystore:

Note: Mention the destination path of the certificate along with the file name.

If after this also the same error is encountered, follow steps mentioned in the below document to import the proxy credentials.

Note: If third party trusted certificate is used, the certificate will be automatically added to the keystore. However, in cases where a valid third party certificate is not used then manual intervention would be required for sure.

@Semih 3318 Yes correct, ADWebCA01 is web cert
@Semih 3318 Yes correct, ADWebCA01 is web cert
I tried but now it gives an error as “Automation Anywhere bot agent service install configuration fail to register and return error(5)” @rbkadiyam
Hello @Raul Jaimes thank you for your reply, and sorry for my late answer
There has been one controlroom machine which i have been using for the botrunner. and there is another controlroom newly installed. I am told that if i uninstall and install bot agent on botrunner, it will connect to newly controlroom machine(ip settings are made for this)
With your answer, i was able to reinstall botagent, and uploaded the ssl certificate afterwards. But it still connects to old controlroom, not the new one.
Do you know what i should do? thanks
Hi @Semih 3318
Post uninstall hope you are logging into new CR and then setting up Bot Agent right? In this way it will not allow you to connect to old CR.
Also Post uninstall delete Automation Anywhere folder in the below path and try again.
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere

Hi @ChanduMohammad actually i havent logged in new or old controlroom either, i just reinstalled botagent on botrunner, and added ssl certificate
Since controlroom does not have botagent, i didnt understand why i shoud log in to new controlroom. What setting should i have done there?
thanks for replying
Hi @Semih 3318 ,
Try to take a look at the file:
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere\registration.properties
(this is system protected, you will need Admin privilegies)
Probably you will notice the old Control-Room there. Was removed the device from old Control-Room in the Devices section?
Kindly try to follow the steps below if the issue persists, admin privileges will be needed.
https://docs.automationanywhere.com/bundle/enterprise-v2019/page/enterprise-cloud/topics/control-room/devices/cloud-bot-agent-manual-upgrade.html
Another option is uninstall again, and deleting the follow folders:
1. C:\Program Files\Automation Anywhere\Bot Agent
2. %ProgramData%\AutomationAnywhere\GlobalCache\embedded-resources
3. C:\ProgramData\AutomationAnywhere
4. C:\Program Files\Automation Anywhere
5. C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere
6. C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere
Then, repeat the installation process of bot agent.

Hi @Raul Jaimes I cant figure out which control room is in the properties file. Because new controlroom and old controlroom links are the same, maybe i miss something, but when i log in both controlrooms, i see both links are the same
Hi @Semih 3318
Are you taking about CR URL or below path?
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere
No two CR links will ever be same
Hi @ChanduMohammad what does it mean that i should login to new controlroom with botrunner id? Sorry, i couldnt understand, its my first time to try switching controlrooms, so i got stucked
Hi @ChanduMohammad
I am taking the both controlroom url
its the old controlroom’home page link:https://rpa360.NAME.com/#/dashboard/home
its second:https://rpa360.NAME.com/#/dashboard/home
*NAME* is the same on both
Hey @Semih 3318
No problem, completely understand the situation.
Consider you have old CR link Ex: `https://community.cloud.automationanywhere.digital/ and a new one i.e `https://community2.cloud-2.automationanywhere.digital.
You are trying to setup Device registration for new CR i.e `https://community2.cloud-2.automationanywhere.digital/, checkout below steps.
- Delete below folder
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere
- Delete Device from CR» Device section
- Uninstall existing Bot Agent
- Login to the new CRURL in the browser i.e `https://community2.cloud-2.automationanywhere.digital/
- Click on Connect Device to the left side of the screen
- Continue following the displayed instructions for Bot Agent download and installation
Hi @ChanduMohammad
I am taking the both controlroom url
its the old controlroom’home page link:https://rpa360.NAME.com/#/dashboard/home
its second:https://rpa360.NAME.com/#/dashboard/home
*NAME* is the same on both
No worries please checkout above resolution and let us know if that helps
@ChanduMohammad thank you for the replies, i did first 3 steps, but when i enter new controlroom link which is same with old one, it goes to the old one, so even if i install botagent again, it will probably go to old one now, i didnt understand how the links for home-AAcontrolroom can be same
Hi @Semih 3318
Please check with your IT or SPOC who has shared the new CR link, both are same or mystery behind it.
If this is not helping you please log a support case with AA

So, the ip’s were changed?
Thank you for the replies @ChanduMohammad and @Raul Jaimes
ill update once its solved
@Raul Jaimes yes, links for both controlroom are same but only the IP adress are different. botrunner is same , i just try to use it for newly installed botrunner. I deleted botagent on botrunner, and deleted botrunner device on the old controlroom
ok, @Semih 3318 ,
So, seems you have two differents ip’s for two different control-rooms and just only one name address.
As @ChanduMohammad mentioned, you will need to involve your IT/SPOC team. it seems you will need and additional DNS record, but it will be a different name address.
Regards.
