I’m having an issue getting a custom wallpaper and logo to set on the Wyse 3040 (8.6_303) using WMS. Is there something I’m missing or special that needs to be done? I’m doing the following:
Upload image file to Apps & Data > File Repository > Inventory for both Wallpaper and Logo
ThinOS Policy > Visual Experience > Desktop Wallpaper > Enable wallpaper
ThinOS Policy > Visual Experience > Desktop File > Wallpaper file name from Repository is selected
ThinOS Policy > Visual Experience > Wallpaper Layout > Center
ThinOS Policy > Visual Experience > Company Logo > Checked
ThinOS Policy > Visual Experience > Logo File > File name from Repository is selected
It simply doesn’t set. All I can get to work is a solid color, DELL default wallpaper (8.6+), and Wyse default wallpaper (8.6+). The defaults are available from the drop down menu.
Check under System Tools – WMS.ini if the wallpaper parameters are set at all.

Nope. Not seeing anything for wallpaper there in the WMS.INI. Is there a parameter I can set for the global.ini on my ThinOS config up on the WMS server to force this?
I had an issue awhile ago with the name length of the file and also had to convert it from PNG to JPG, it was a few firmware revisions ago. I would convert it to jpg to reduce its size and shorten the name to ensure there isn’t a character limitation you’re hitting.
Was this working previously?
No, I haven’t been able to get this to work yet. I had already tried PNGs, JPGs, and BMPs.
I’ve also tried a factory reset on this 3040 and it just won’t set the background or logo. We just got the 5070 in and it’s working as expected.
As the background parameter is not found in the WMS.ini locally on the client, I suspect that the client is either in the wrong policy group or there is an override in the machine exceptions.
