Job Faulted and can't delete them so I can't delete the robots and machines

Help
#1

Ideally, I’d just like to clear out my Orchestrator and start from scratch.

I’m getting the error below about a fileName parameter but have no idea what it is referring to. I supplied the full path the the dummy .xlsx file as a default value to the “in” argument to the Try-Catch Sequence for Practice 9 but it was not called fileName (see attached .xaml).

* Process: Practice8
* Environment: TestEnv
* Robot: NICHOLAS
* Machine name: GOLD3FOREVER
* Info: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: fileName

An ExceptionDetail, likely created by IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults=true, whose value is:
System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: fileName

Edit: Actually my plan to just delete everything is not allowed:

Said something similar for machine as well.

What can I do now?

Buddy, stop the pending process in your jobs tab and then delete the robot and machine buddy…

Try to create a new workflow publish it and do from the beginning of how to configure a robot to orchestrator…
Thats all buddy… you are done

I can’t as the stop and kill buttons are unclickable/greyed out both top left and to the right when I pull the dropdown.

Edit: sorry there was one more pending job at the bottom. I don’t know why it was at the bottom but I must have clicked the sort/reorder button.

Buddy disconnect the robot from orchestrator and then try to delete buddy @nyck33
and only if you delete the process,
you can delete the robot,
and only when you delete the robot, you can delete the environment and machine as well
Cheers @nyck33

@Palaniyappan

do you have a .xaml file with solution for Practice 9 of Orchestrator?

That was the cause of my problem in the first place, probably something to do with the arg in or out name that I did not supply (although I thought I did). Here is my post about it: https://forum.uipath.com/t/orchestrator-practice-9-need-way-more-info/117744
