Could not create SSL/TLS secure Channel
Could not create SSL/TLS secure Channel
This error is occasionally encountered when trying to get assets or queue items during workflow execution. This happens due to a Transport Layer Security failure for Windows devices attempting a TLS connection to a device that does not support Extended Master Secret. This is not an Orchestrator issue. Find here more details on the matter and how to mitigate it.

This error is encountered if the username provided for the Robot does not coincide with the one used on the Robot machine. For more information on how to connect the Robot or Orchestrator correctly, see the Connecting Robots to Orchestrator page.
Permission missing: Launcher
Permission missing: Launcher
It can occur when you are trying to start a job directly from the Robot machine (from the UiPath Assistant or Studio), and the machine username is not the same as the one used to connect the Robot to Orchestrator. For example, if you connected the Robot to Orchestrator using the ABC username, you cannot start jobs on the Robot from the UiPath Assistant or Studio using a different user, such as XYZ.
If you are sure that the username with which you connected the Robot to Orchestrator is the same as the one on the machine, please use the Regutil.exe tool to deactivate the Robot license and reconnect to Orchestrator. Find more details here.
Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password
Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password
This occurs when you tried to start a job on a Robot for which the credentials (the username and/or password) provided in Orchestrator are incorrect.
Note:
If the Robot username is in a domain, the username needs to be in the
domain\username
format.

This error is displayed if you are trying to run a process on an Attended Robot from Orchestrator.
Executor start process failed, reason: A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated
Executor start process failed, reason: A specified logon session does not exist. It may already have been terminated
There are two types of occurrences:
A. Every time you try to start the Robot - This means that a logon session cannot be created at the moment. This happens if you are connected to the Robot machine with a different username with RDP. To avoid this error, sign off all the RDP connections on the Robot machine.
B. Randomly - In this case, you can attempt the following:
- Check if the Robot machine has enough resources (CPU, Memory).
- Check the connection time using the
mstsc
command-line function. If the 60 seconds timeout period expires, the error is displayed.

This issue can occur in the following cases:
- The server is restarted in Internet Information Services (IIS).
- The server is shut down.
- The connection to the server is suddenly lost.

This error is encountered in the following situations:
A. If High-Density and regular Robots write or modify the same file. To avoid this, generate different files for Robots and unique user IDs.
B. If a Robot does not have write permissions for the target folder.
C. If the file has been created and the Robot cannot edit it.

The issues occur when not all users on a machine are connected as Robots to Orchestrator.

Note:
This only works over un-authenticated proxy connections.
Cannot upgrade the legacy UiPath.Core.Activities package.
Cannot upgrade the legacy UiPath.Core.Activities package.
This error can occur when you execute processes created prior to 2018.3.
Processes created prior to 2018.3 depend on the legacy UI Automation package, namely Core.Activities
. When you run them in the current version, you must use a Core.Activities
meta-package that migrates the activities using the new System and UIAutomation packages.
By default, the legacy Core.Activities
package is not published anywhere, so the migration meta-package is used. However, if the legacy Core.Activities
was published on custom feeds or Orchestrator by users, the legacy package is installed, which exhibits this error.
To solve or avoid this issue, simply remove the legacy Core.Activities
package from any custom feed before trying to execute the process again. Also, remember to check out how to Open Projects Created with Previous Versions.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Licence permission missing
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Licence permission missing
This issue occurs on Studio v2018.3.2 and above, when executing projects that are using the 18.3.6864.20582 version of the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities
package.
If you have projects created with Studio v2018.3.1 which were using the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities
dependency version 18.3.6864.20582 you must open them in Studio and the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities
dependency must be updated to the 18.3.6877.28298 version.
If you have projects created in versions prior to v2018.3.1 and weren't opened with this version, but v2018.3.1 is already installed, you must perform the following steps to prevent compatibility issues with future versions of the UiPath Platform. You must delete the 2018.3.6864.20598 version of the UiPath.Core.Activities
dependency from the following locations:
- The Orchestrator feed
- The default packages location -
%Program Files (x86)%\UiPath\Studio\Packages
in versions prior to 2021.4 or%Program Files%\UiPath\Studio\Packages
starting with version 2021.4 - The NuGet cache -
%userprofile%\.nuget\packages\uipath.core.activities
If Studio/Robot v2018.3.1 was NOT previously installed and the 18.3.6864.20582 version of UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities
package is not deployed locally or on your Orchestrator feed, then you can upgrade to v2018.3.2 without any risks.
Important:
If you ever installed other 2018.3 versions than the Enterprise Studio v2018.3.1 edition (eg. Community Stable v2018.3.0 or any prior beta versions for both Enterprise and Community), the above applies as well. Do not use any
UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities
with version less or equal than 18.3.6864.20582, andUiPath.Core.Activities
with version less or equal than 2018.3.6864.20598.

Bad Request - Request Too Long
This error can occur when trying to access Orchestrator, due to a browser persistent cookies issue.
To solve or avoid this issue, clear the cookies in your browser. For example, for Chrome browsers, follow these instructions to clear the cookies, making sure you select All time as time range. Internet Explorer or Firefox browsers also have detailed instructions on how to delete the cookies.

When logging into Orchestrator using Active Directory, an unknown error is thrown. It is accompanied by the following error in the NLog Target of the Orchestrator Logs (EventViewer or what is configured in the Orchestrator config): UiPath.Orchestrator.Core.Exceptions.BadRequestException: Error code - 1413, Message - 'The user is not a member of the specified AD domain.'
This occurs if you use Active Directory users as the identity of your Application Pools (Identity or Orchestrator) without setting Load User Profile to True
.
To correct it, follow these steps:
- In IIS Manager, select your Orchestrator website and then navigate to Application Pools.
- From the list of application pools, right-click Identity or Orchestrator and select Advanced Settings. The Advanced Settings window is displayed.
- On the Process Model section, set the Load User Profile to True.
