I tried to get Sophos Protection updated but it appeared error that Installation of product SAVXP failed because of an unexpected error.

Here is my trace log:

  • Hi,

    We would need to see the logs from the SAV install, if you look in \Windows\temp there should be 2 for each install attempt of SAV:

    • Sophos Anti-Virus Install Log_[TimeStamp] .txt
    • Sophos Anti-Virus CustomActions Log_[TimeStamp].txt  

    They are a pair, the timestamps should be the same. Hopefully you can make them available using a text/filesharing site.

    Regards,

    Jak

  • Hi,

    I just can see the first one Sophos Anti-Virus Install Log_120618_051033 and the content is:

    2012-06-18 13:10:33 Info: Logging started: installing/upgrading Sophos Anti-Virus

  • HI,

    Well, looking at mine I see the following:
     

    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: registryInstallTo [overriding InstallToPath] is: C:\Program Files (x86)\Sophos\Sophos Anti-Virus2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: SetupPlugin: updateProps.m_MajorUpdate = 0
    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: SetupPlugin: updateProps.m_DataOnlyUpdate = 1
    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: SetupPlugin: updateProps.m_OnAccessDriverUpdate = 0
    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: SetupPlugin: updateProps.m_BootDriverUpdate = 0
    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: SetupPlugin: updateProps.m_ClassFilterUpdate = 0
    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: SetupPlugin: updateProps.m_KMSDriverUpdate = 0
    2012-06-18 18:21:43 Info: Managed install

     So I assume "FeatureSet" is a method in the setup plugin for SAV?  The SAV setup plugin on a Vista+ machine would be here:

    "C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache\savxp \setup.dll".

    This setup plugin is loaded by Alupdate.exe (a component of AutoUpdate that actually initiates the download and install of the products) to assist with the install of SAV.

    I can only assume that alupdate.exe is perhaps unable to find/load the file in the above location.

    It might be worth running "Process Monitor" (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx ), kick off an update, to force an install attempt and see if you can spot alupdate.exe loading this SAV setup.dll file.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards,

  • Hi,


    I tried to run process monitor to kick off an update but it seems nothing happens and the update still fail

  • Do you refer to uninstall and reinstall the sophos again?

  • Hi,

    Each time AutoUpdate updates, either on its schedule or if you right click on the shield in the notification tray an choose "Update now", it will check for anything new from the update source and then attempt an install of the products if it has something new or the previous attempt failed.  

    To relaly try and understand why it's failing I would run Process Monitor so it starts capturing, right click on the shield and choose "Update now".  Once SAV has failed to install you should stop Process Monitor capuring.  You can then search in the results (top to bottom) for setup.dll.  With the install log open (to help match up the times) you should be able to see if Alupdate.exe is able to load setup.dll from the savxp cache location and it if exists.

    If the above approach doesn't get you anywhere and you're a local admin you could try uninstalling SAV, SAU and RMS (appwiz.cpl), reboot and then run:

     \\EPCOLSRV107\SophosUpdate\CIDs\S000\SAVSCFXP\setup.exe 

    To initiate a new installation.  This might just work but why will remain a mystery but then sometimes it doesn't always matter :).

    Hope that's helpful.

    Regards,
