Sophos RMS update problem

Hi,

i have a problem with the sophos rms component. there was a problem with rms on one server, so i completly uninstalled sophos. i rebooted the server and then reinstalled sophos with the enterprise console. everything was installed fine except rms.

i then installed rms by hand from the sophos autoupdate\cache\rms folder, which did work without problems. but when sophos tries to autoupdate itself, it uninstalled rms again and can't install it again.

here is the rms log:

  • Hello Georg,

    perhaps an unfortunate moment as 10.3.13 with the new RMS 4.0 has just been released.

    everything was installed fine except rms ... i then installed rms by hand

    This is not recommended as setup.exe or ALUpdate.exe run some logic and set up a few things before calling the Installer. For whatever reason ALUpdate seems to think that an older version is installed (LOGIC: Installed version is less than 4) and attempts to uninstall it - which fails with 1605 (ERROR_UNKNOWN_PRODUCT, This action is only valid for products that are currently installed), the Sophos RMS uninstall log.txt might or might not help.

    everything was installed fine except rms ... there was a problem with rms on one server, so i completly uninstalled sophos

    The deployment from the console should have been a clean install and worked (actually AutoUpdate installs the components from the cache after downloading them). That the installed failed suggests that the initial problem with rms wasn't resolved by the uninstall/reinstall.

    I'd suggest to uninstall once again, retry the deployment and then tackle the install error (which now shouldn't be 1605).

    P.S.: One ALUpdate.exe LOGIC: message contains a small typo :smileywink:
