To resolve this issue, update FortiOS to version 7.4.2 or higher.

 

This was a known bug (973935) and was fixed from version 7.4.2 onwards. See FortiGate 7.4.2 resolved issues.

 

Workaround:

 

Apply the Profile from the CLI:

 

config wireless-controller wtp

    edit "serial_number_of_the_FAP"

        set wtp-profile "name_of_the_profile_to_apply"

    next

end
