Absolute newbie to PA so I'll try to explain my issue as best I can...
Had a server setup that I remote desktop onto when I leave I just close the remote connection, I don't shutdown or log off the server.
Got the premium package that allows me to schedule desktop flows
Built "DesktopFlow01" that simply opens Word types 'flow works' and saves to desktop (nothing fancy and it works when running manually)
Built "TestFlow01" scheduled to run at 14:00 and run the DesktopFlow01 this is set to run as attended
Built "TestFlow02" scheduled to run at 14:10 and run the DesktopFlow01 this is set to run as Unattended
Come back at 14:30 to the following error messages
TestFlow01:
No unlocked user sessions found on the target machine. Cannot execute attended desktop flow.
TestFlow02:
There is a user session (id: 6, state: Disconnected) on the target machine. Cannot execute unattended desktop flow.
But these 2 messages seem to contradict each other?!? What am I missing? Had a google but not finding any setups quite the same with this issue.
Thanks,
Solved! Go to Solution.
Managed to resolve this, in order to run Unattended I needed to sign out of the Server rather than just ending the Remote Desktop connection. It seems you can't get PA to run Desktop flows on a server that has just had the connection ended as it is neither logged in properly or logged out.

Correct. If you just disconnect, you are still logged in to the system, but locked. It's the same as if you locked your local PC using Win-L keys.
