Hello,

I have server 2008 R2, where Sophos AV package, installs only Sophos Autoupdate. RMS & AV engine fails to install.

And Sophos ES Setup log reports the below .

  • Hello vn7100,

    the ES Setup log looks ok so far, it fails setting the exclusions for the Indexing Service - which might be more or less normal (e.g. If the service is not enabled).
    Thus it seems SAU has been successfully installed, that's all the initial setup has to do. Subsequently it should download the other packages (SAV, RMS) and install them. If this fails the relevant logs are: ALUpdate - under ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Logs - and the component installer logs in the system %Temp% directory (usually C:\Windows\Temp).

    Tried google for a fix, no luck...

  • Hello vn7100,

    auto update of virus definition files fail. ( manual update after deleting folder C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Cache works perfectly)

    so the error in the ES log was important after all. Please see Warning 25010 or Error 25010 when trying to uninstall or update the Sophos endpoint software for a possible solution.

    Now server runs with Sophos Agent, RMS & AU ... Installation of product RMSNT failed

    You should check if RMS is working as it should (after the issue with AutoUpdate has been solved). If the server is shown as managed and connected in SEC (and the Sophos Network Communications Report indicates it's ok) then there's probably no fundamental issue. However, the update of RMSNT shouldn't fail. If it still does please check the RMS install (look for Rückgabewert 3) and  ClientMRInit logs.
