Errors when installing via script GPO

I have managed to install the Sophos End point Protection via the exe with no issues. I then followed the instructions to set up a script and deploy via GPO (Start up script) and all seems to work ok and appears in Sophos Central Cloud with a green tick.

However after around 30 mins later it appears with a red ! and shows either this error or something similar - "Failed to install Malicious Traffic Detection (64-bit): unexpected error."

It then just sits on "One or more Sophos services are missing or not running"

When i go to the client machine and double click the Sophos icon in bottom right it also shows a red ! and says some components are missing?

Please advise?

Hi Alex Burkett

Thank you for the logs.

I have reviewed the logs and found the error related to permission for the SSP user (SetupSspUserAccount: OLDUSERGROUP does not exist - not adding permissions).

I would recommend you to open a support case for this as it may need to be escalated with many other logs.
