I am trying to setup the warp client inside a windows runner in github actions following the mdm deployment from https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-devices/warp/deployment/mdm-deployment/#windows
I download the msi, install it passing the organization parameters auth_client_id, auth_client_secret and other deployment parameters, but when doing a curl request to https://cloudflare.com/cdn-cgi/trace trace the warp client in response is off, the client does not seem to start and I cannot find the reason. I attach leave also the logs of the installation process if that helps. At a certain point I see Exception performing install custom action: Cannot start service CloudflareWARP on computer ‘.’. Tried to manually start the process with the following but no luck there as well:
$warpExecutable = "C:\Program Files\Cloudflare\Cloudflare WARP\warp-svc.exe"
Start-Process -FilePath $warpExecutable -ArgumentList "--start" -NoNewWindow -Wait
I would appreciate every bit of help diagnosing the problem. Thank you!
