Update Failed

Since 18th Nov 2011 Sophos Endpoint Security and Control (I'm running v 9.5) is failing to update. The update logs recorded the below errors.

Message                                                                                                                            Module            Process Sequence

ERROR:   Falló la descarga de SAVXP desde el servidor Sophos                        SDDSUpdate 3016      2788

When I try to force an update (I right click on the icon in the System Tray and select Update Now) the update window pops up and returns "cannot connect to server" .

I have noticed that this issue seems to recur periodically (every 2 or 3 months, or so). When it occured, I tried un-/re-installing Sophos to no avail. Eventually, after a few days, Sophos seems to update without my intervention.

Is this due to my Sophos config or license or, rather, a Sophos server issue? How can I fix it?

  • Hi,

    Can you perform the same steps as in this thread:

    /search?q= 18911
    to get the more verbose updating log.

  • Same deal. However, my license does not expire until 24th Nov 2011.

  • Hi,

    So if you paste the following into a browser:

    http://es-web-2.sophos.com/update/E17FE03B-0501-4aaa-BC69-0129D965F311/2ddb71e9469d967d080c88509dc0b659x000.xml

    I assume it prompts for credentials but yours (the same ones you have in AutoUpdate) don't work?  

    If that's the case, you're best bet is to contact Support to get the credentials straight as it's not a product issue.

    Regards,

    Jak
