Sophos System Protection installation failed

During re-installation of Sophos on a Windows 10 client (upgraded to Win10 1803 before) the component 'Sophos System Protection' fails to install.
Have tried complete deinstallation and installation, without success.

 

The log file for Sophos System Protection setup shows a problem during action SetupSspUserAccount:

  • Hello Clemens Feige,

    please check the Sophos Anti-Virus (Major) CustomActions log where it talks about SetupSspUserAccount. The actual error is recorded there.

  • Hello Clemens Feige,

    the custom actions log
    twice wrong, must be the heat, I was thinking of the AV log, any this Ca goes anyway to the main log.
    Seems the Granting permissions to user "NT SERVICE\sophossps" fails, can't say if (and where) the actual error is logged. You say you re-installed after upgrading Windows - did you uninstall all Sophos components before upgrading? If not, why did you have to reinstall? Is SSP shown as installed under Programs and Features?

    Christian

  • Hello Christian,

    I have uninstalled Sophos after the upgrade to Win10 1803.
    Sophos was installed new because the firewall was not functional anymore after the upgrade to Win10 1803.
    Now the firewall works well but Sophos System Protection cannot be installed.

    I tried (all after the upgrade):

     1.
     First, all components were uninstalled in correct order according KB 12360.
     After restart it was tried to install, while all components are installed properly with exception of the Sophos System Protection.
     It is also not listed anymore in Programs and Features on both affected PCs.

     2.
     Second, it was tried to reinstall while incomplete installation remains on PC.
     Also this won't fix the issue.

     3.
     Again a complete deinstallation and install process was tried without success.
     Error message in log is always the same.

     

    Is it correct that there exists no cleanup tool anymore like it was provided by Sophos support years ago?

  • Hello Clemens Feige,

    no cleanup tool anymore
    this is the case. The Windows Installer is used to install the product so it has to be used for uninstall as well.

    Glancing again at the log in your original post - this isn't the complete log, is it? Looks like MSI is already rolling back (I have no SSP log to compare to yours at hand at the moment), the error at Granting permissions might be a red herring. Is there perhaps another earlier error that causes the rollback?

    Christian

    --> Now the posted snippet follows (of course this is a newer run here).

    Note that in the snippet of the initial post the first error occurs in the middle not at the end:

    CustomAction SetupSspUserAccount returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)

    --> Now the posted snippet follows (of course this is a newer run here).

    Note that in the snippet of the initial post the first error occurs in the middle not at the end:

    ...
    SetupSspUserAccount:  Initialized.
    SetupSspUserAccount:  LoadAccount(SophosSSPUser) failed (error 1332)
    SetupSspUserAccount:  Granting permissions to user "NT SERVICE\sophossps"
    CustomAction SetupSspUserAccount returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)

  • Hello Clemens Feige,

    first of all the first error occurs in the middle not at the end: MSI logs can be confusing as they are not like most other logs. The Installer goes through several phases. Depending on the amount of logging requested it lists its actions and their result, finally dumping dumping the Properties and providing a summary result. In case of a failure during execution it initiates a rollback and the error is followed by a listing of the rollback actions and finally a summary of the error and a final result. Thus it looks like there are two (or sometimes more) errors with the actual error "in the middle".

    This doesn't help with your problem though. I've rummaged through old logs and I'm afraid I have no advice as I haven't encountered this error. As already mentioned I think you have to contact Support. Just one more question - are there any occurrences of sophossps in the registry?

  • Hello Christian,

    this is what I tried to make clear with my last post (refer to the end of the post): the error I have considered all the time was this one in the middle, not after rollback.
    I am a little familiar with MSI logs, next time I try to split the log fragments into more parts to make clear which problem I've observed or like to discuss.

    I have generated a support ticket to resolve this problem, thank you for your help.

     

    The advice to search for registry keys gives the solution:
    The key "HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Sophos\SystemProtection\Users" was not accessible.

    Solution:

    1. Deinstall Sophos components according KB 12360.
    2. Acquire user permission of key and set full rights for administrators.
    3. Delete key structure "HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Sophos".
    4. Reinstall Sophos.
