Ent. Console 5.5.1 failing on Update manager instal

Hello  

I'm trying to deploy a new installation on windows server 2016. And The installer fails in the update manager installation as below: 

 

the error return on the log file is 

Action start 12:13:17: IS_ErrorActionForDomainValidationFailure.
MSI (s) (EC:08) [12:13:17:968]: Product: Sophos Update Manager -- Installation cannot continue. <DOMAIN> is not a valid domain name.

To be valid, the domain part of the username must be either a domain or a physical server or workstation. Check the name and try again.

Action ended 12:13:17: IS_ErrorActionForDomainValidationFailure. Return value 3.

I need to deploy it using domain accounts because its recommended for sophos, could you help me:?

  • Hello Rafael Araujo,

    there's probably no additional helpful information in the log (apart from the account used). Dunno what function is actually called to verify the domain - you did specify a NetBIOS name (no dot in it, DOMAIN\Account and not DOMAIN.local\Account)?
    It's not mandatory to use a domain account (that can be changed later if needed), indeed it works with a local account as well. Is just the SUM component missing and the Management Server and Database components installed?

  • Hello My Friend!

     

    Indeed, it was a communication problem with a NetBios Domain Name.

    I redirected the firewall rules of the VLAN where the server is installed and everything worked fine!

     

    Thanks for your attention!
