Cannot create stream (pulling my hair out now)

Hey Guys

First post here but long time sophos user. I look after 5 primary schools in west yorkshire and our anti virus is provided by sophos. We have our own update location that we pull updates from rather than from sophos (dont ask me for the reason why, i just get told where to get updates :-/)

Anyway, we have finally been given sophos enterprise console 4.7 to play with and i have upgraded two of my servers across the 5 schools. Ive been having some severe problems getting EC to update, upon checking the logs i see "cannot create stream" and a bunch of hex code.

Ive followed the stuff on sophos' website on deleting the working-sub and sub0 directories or whatever and this unfortunately doesnt resolve the problem.

Ive been waiting over a week for our in house support desk to resolve the issues but ive not heard a peep and some of my servers havent updated in that time.

Can anyone offer some advice? unfortunately i cant contact sophos direct as because our license is a local education one sophos cannot actually support us we are expected to speak to our in house team for all support (even as useless as hey are)

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks

  • Indeed you are correct there QC.

    After much messing about again yesterday morning i found that we had to switch to 9.7 recommended in our subscriptions to continue getting updates. Something YHGFL had not told us until recently.

    Im still waiting for them to get back to me on the subject hehe.. something so simple that could have been solved in 2 minutes has taken countless hours of work and wasted my time.

    Got to love YHGFL.
