Cleans failing when pushed from the console

I've recently had a few instances where we've pushed a clean from the console and it has failed (console shows status as "cleanup failed")  and then when someone tries to clean it locally we see code a0250026 "Virus/spyware XXXX was not removed because of errors".

I think it may possibly be a permissions problem.

Anyone else seen this?

  • Hello Tony-MTC,

    any chance that these PCs with "random name change" have been cloned (or imaged) from a machine which had Sophos already installed and running? And - if several machines report with the same identity (and thus their reports accumulate) you'll get all kinds of weird results. For example: computer A reports threat xy which appears as Cleanable in SEC. You request Cleanup but meanwhile computer B has reported to SEC and it is the one which will receive the command. Of course it reports an error as this threat isn't in its quarantine list.
