At auto-login the Startup shortcut fired before the network was up, so Edge
--kiosk navigated to nothing and sat on a blank white page with no retry.
Point the shortcut at a hidden VBS launcher (wscript, no console flash) that
polls the kiosk URL until it responds (up to ~3 min) and only then launches
Edge fullscreen, so the first paint is the real page. Falls through to launch
anyway after the timeout so a display is never left dark.
The old LobbyDisplay/Dashboard Inno installers planted an HKLM
...\CurrentVersion\Run value (plus a Startup .lnk). The dispatcher already
swept the stale .lnk/.url launchers but never the Run value, so a display
with our new ShopDB Kiosk.lnk still relaunched the old kiosk URL at logon
(the Run key beats the Startup shortcut). Remove the two legacy Run values
and kill any running old-URL Edge so the display self-heals to the resolved
target on the next enforce cycle.
The dispatcher now derives its FQDN (F<BIOS serial>.<domain>) and asks
/api/dashboarddefaults/display-role for its role/path, so changing a display's
type/location in Settings > Dashboard Defaults takes effect with no reimage. If
there is no serial, no server mapping, or the lookup fails, it falls back to the
local display-type.txt map (offline-safe). VM-verified both paths.
- notifications shopfloor feed: resolve the employee name live when the stored
value is a bare SSO (WJ notifications imported as SSOs, never converted), for
both single and split-per-employee cards
- employee name resolver: after a directory miss, fall back to the shopdb User
account (firstname/lastname, keyed by SSO username) so users from other
locations still show a name
- shopfloor dashboard: employee photo falls back to the GE monogram (own asset,
independent of the site_logo setting) with a loop-guarded onerror; recognition
+ recert tiles both covered
- shopfloor dashboard: 'All Business Units' filter label -> 'All Locations'
- geenforce display dispatcher: startup sweep also matches the imaging
installers' 'GE Aerospace Dashboard/Lobby' shortcuts by name
The prior sweep only matched '--kiosk'; the imaging installers (Inno
GEAerospaceDashboardSetup / lobby) create Startup shortcuts with single-dash
'-kiosk' pointing at /shopdb/shopfloor-dashboard, so they survived. Match any
msedge/chrome Startup .lnk whose args contain -kiosk (one or two dashes) OR a
shopdb kiosk URL (tsgwp00525 / /shopdb/ / shopfloor-dashboard). Unrelated
Startup items are left untouched (VM-verified).
- Resolve-ShopdbPayloads wrote an absolute local path into the entry, and the
engine resolves it as Join-Path InstallerRoot <field>, doubling it
(C:\...\payloads\C:\...\payloads\<sha>.ps1 -> PS1 not found). Write the leaf
filename instead; the runner already sets InstallerRoot to that payloads dir.
- display dispatcher now removes leftover kiosk launchers from prior installs
(any Startup .lnk that runs Edge --kiosk, plus .url to a shopdb kiosk page),
not just its own, so two kiosks do not fight.
- allowlist auth uses remote_addr, not the spoofable first X-Forwarded-For hop
(adds _trusted_client_ip + a regression test); rate-limit path unchanged
- client psm1: fix Set-StrictMode crashes reading absent keys in Get-ShopdbConfig
(token-less mode) and Resolve-ShopdbPayloads (no-payload entries); validate
the manifest response is JSON before overwriting the last-known-good cache
- runner: pass the engine its required -InstallerRoot/-LogFile; create the log
directory so enforce logging is not silently lost on a fresh kiosk
- display scope: dispatcher writes an all-users Startup shortcut instead of
Start-Process (SYSTEM cannot show a window in session 0), resolves the base
URL from HKLM, and adds an always-on power/no-lock entry; tests updated for
the 6-entry scope
Per decision: displays need none of the fleet-wide common scope's software, so
the gea-shopfloor-display scope carries everything it enforces and does not
inherit common. This avoids repackaging common's SMB-backed payloads for a
share-less display.
- Invert the client common-merge switch: -NoCommon (default-on) becomes
-IncludeCommon (default OFF). A scope now enforces alone unless opted in.
The capability stays for a future share-less non-display PC; displays omit it.
- Drop the common SMB-payload audit + inheritance sections from the display
seed comments and docs (GE-ENFORCE-DISPLAY.md); document self-sufficiency.
- GE-ENFORCE-CLIENT.md: common-scope inheritance is now opt-in.
Get GE-Enforce closer to running on credential-less Intune/Entra display PCs
that pull manifest + payloads over HTTPS instead of SMB.
Server (plugins/geenforce/api/routes.py):
- Rate-limit + 512MB served-size ceiling on GET /payload/<sha256> (reuses the
login limiter's cache pattern, config-overridable via GEENFORCE_PAYLOAD_*).
- New tests: payload hardening, manifestblobs model-vs-migration parity, and a
report-contract test locking the lowercase per-entry report keys.
PS client (plugins/geenforce/client/):
- Fix New-ShopdbReport per-entry key casing to lowercase (name/action/selfhealed/
exitcode/message) to match what the server reads; the engine emits PascalCase.
- Enforce TLS 1.2 in the network functions.
- Fetch + merge the fleet-wide common scope alongside the pctype scope
(pctype wins on conflict; -NoCommon opt-out).
- Normalize whatever the engine returns into a well-formed summary.
- Make the empty-cache fail-safe observable: event-log entry + report ping
instead of a silent exit 0.
Manifest (plugins/geenforce/seed_display_scope.py + docs/GE-ENFORCE-DISPLAY.md):
- Seed a gea-shopfloor-display scope: 4 Edge kiosk drift-heal registry entries
+ 1 data-driven dispatcher (Dashboard/Lobby/3DPrintRoom via display-type.txt).
Kiosk EXEs stay image-baked; the manifest heals policy/config drift only.
- Documents the common SMB-payload audit (entries needing http/inline before a
share-less display can inherit common).
Migration registry (shopdb/plugins/alembic_template.py + test):
- Register the pre-existing manifestblobs and the new printersupplyalerts tables
in PLUGIN_TABLE_OWNERS; update EXPECTED_HEAD_REVISION for geenforce (0002blobs),
printers (0002supplyalerts), and printedparts (0004txnrev) which had drifted.
