Using custom MeshCentral in TacticalRMM

[fanynek86]

Hello everyone!

I have a question for you.
I used my existing MeshCentral, in Tactical RMM.
I have the following problem when deploying the agent:
level=error msg="exec: "C:\Program Files\Mesh Agent\MeshAgent.exe": file does not exist: "
The problem is that my already deployed MeshCetral does not have a native folder name or executable file.
Where can I please modify this verification so that I can define the path?

We probably misunderstood each other. The message is there because MeshAgent.exe is not called MeshAgent.exe, but according to the name I specified, and the folder is not called MeshAgent, but according to the name I specified. Dne st 26. 3. 2025 19:23 uživatel dinger1986 ***@***.***> napsal:

yeah, I reread what you had written and deleted my comment cause it was wrong

there is an optional installer flag to specify path to custom mesh agent: https://docs.tacticalrmm.com/install_agent/#optional-installer-args

thats what I was going to post before getting side tracked

When I wanted to use the existing MeshCentral I used the parameter -local-mesh "C:\Program Files\MYCOMAPNY\MYCOMPANY_agent\MYCOMPANY_agent.exe"

Then I had to enable "allowFraming" on the server with meshcentral. Now I have the problem that when I click on "Take control" in Tactical RMM, only a black window appears.

I tried to solve the black screen problem by installing with the "-meshdir" parameter.
However, I can't define the exe file name here. If I define the path and the file name, MeshAgent.exe is still added to the end of the query.
Without define exe file name:
level=error msg="exec: "C:\\Program Files\\MYCOMPANY\\MYCOMPANY_agent\"\\MeshAgent.exe": file does not exist: "
With define exe file name:
level=error msg="exec: "C:\\Program Files\\MYCOMPANY\\MYCOMPANY_agent\\MYCOMPANY_agent.exe\\MeshAgent.exe": file does not exist: "

Hello everyone.
I have an interesting problem here.
I connected Tactical rmm to my existing MeshCentral. The connection works, but Tactical-RMM is generating the link incorrectly. There is a faulty link to the node. Once I change the gotonode to the correct one and leave the rest of the link, everything works as it should.
Can you please advise me how to fix this so that Tactical RMM generates the correct link to the node?

Is it possible that this is caused by an installation problem during this verification?

Hello everyone.
I solved this problem via simlink.
Could you please correct the path so that it defines the actual MeshAgent name?
