User logged into console. Please log out before trying another multi-user deployment.

Hello

 

I'm having trouble deploying bots. If I set it to Regular, it works, but when I try to set it to RDP, which is what I want, I get this message: "User logged into console. Please log out before trying another multi-user deployment."
I have the cloud version of Control Room, so I have the latest version.
If I uninstall the agent and delete all the folders, then reinstall the agent, it works fine, but when the device logs off, the deployment fails again.

    @GOAA  Please check auto login setting for RDP Session  - Session lock vs session open 
    also could you please confirm that when you singed out  using below procedure ?
    Windows button → Right Click → shutdown or Sign out ->Sign out

    @GOAA  Now I would suggest to clean the profile 
     

    Steps: 

    • Stop AA Bot agent service in runner/creator machine 
    • login into control room → Manage → Devices → Remove the device 
    • delete Automation anywhere folder under C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\
    • Start AA Bot agent service 
    • connect to Control room to make sure Device connected and showing into the control room

    This will clear any open sessions and any cache.

    HELLO ​@rbkadiyam 

    I did that you wrote me.

    But, when the session is open works fine (with lock and unlock session), but the problem is when need to create a new session to Exceute a bot.

    Hello ​@Sajith Sudhakaran 

    I did that, but didn’t work. All close all sesion, but the RDP fails when needs to create the sesion

    I need to work in RDP mode because, i need to control the Screen Resolution.

    Thanks!

    @GOAA  try to save this script in .bat file ; place into runner machine - right click and run as adminstrator.  Then run the bot. 

    --------------------------------------------------------------RDPSessionOut.bat----------------------

    @echo off
    setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

    for /f "skip=1 tokens=1,2,3" %%a in ('query user') do (
        set "user=%%a"
        set "user=!user:>=!"

        if /i "!user!"=="%USERNAME%" (
            set "sessionID=%%c"
        )
    )

    if defined sessionID (
        echo Found session: !sessionID!
        tscon !sessionID! /dest:console
    ) else (
        echo Session not found.
    )

    endlocal
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This worked for me with the same scenario that you mentioned.

    @GOAA  will you be able to provide node manager, Wfree_RDP, AAchromeBotBrowserAgent logs along with the control room → Settings → Device → Auto login settings
