  • Hello MichaelR,

    that's not much detail, at least SAV and OS version could make a difference.

    Anyway, a few questions:

    I assume you are managing the computers with SEC (version?) and the have already been protected for some time, correct? When did the problems start (as 10.0.3 is "out now" - do they perhaps fail to upgrade from 10.0.2)? Was the attempted reinstall done by Protect computers from the console?

    Not all errors can be resolved by simply reprotecting/reinstalling, sometimes it is necessary to determine the cause. Interesting logs are Sophos Anti-Virus Install Log_yymmdd_yymmdd.txt and Sophos Anti-Virus CustomActions Log_yymmdd_hhmmss.txt , you should check these first (you should find them in %windir%\Temp). Search for Return value 3 in the install log. If you are unsure how to proceed please post a short snippet from above Return value 3 .

  • Hello Michael,

    this is from the SAV Install log, right? What's in the CustomActions log?

  • Hello Michael,

    thanks, but my Dutch just suffices to understand Toegang geweigerd  :smileywink:

    If the snippets are from the same set of logs then the error in CustomActions is not the one causing the 1722 though. Are there any other logs from around this time? (should have thought of this in the first place as the logs says that "C:\Program Files\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus\Web Intelligence\swi_update.exe" /update has failed).

    Christian

    :23499
  • No there are nog other logs anymore.

    I have deleted the computer in SEC and now i get the following error: Uninstall of Sophos AutoUpdate failed.

    :23501
  • Hello Michael,

    now i get the following error: Uninstall of Sophos AutoUpdate failed

    you see this on the client or did it reappear in the console? Anyway - how many clients are we talking about  (i.e. what's your total number and how many fail)?   

    Combing through various saved logs it appears that swi_update.exe isn't very talkative - OTOH it looks it is the failing program (at least in the attempted reinstalls). Can't say where to look next so I'd contact Support (email/support form or phone) - collecting the logs before doing so (both from a client you have attempted to reinstall and if you still have one you have not then this too). Although it is likely possible to remedy the situation by "brute force" it's better to have the problem analyzed (especially if more than a very few clients show this issue).

    Sorry that I can't be of more help.

    :23585
  • Hello Michael,

    I'm not sure if this is the same error, combing through some more error logs I've found a Configuration failed error. The reason could be found in the CustomActions log (like the one you posted here) in the lines preceding the one with RollbackUpdateSavAdapterDll . Didn't stand out so it could easily be overlooked. If you're not sure please post the complete CustomActions here.
