Sophos Enterprise Console 5.2.2 showing Update Manager not updating

Hi Folks

We have a SEC 5.2.2 instance which has a stuck Update Manager (the primary one on the SEC server). I've tried all sorts of things to get it going again - but to no avail.

1. restarting server

2. restarting services

3. deleting and downloading all the Warehouse and CID folders again (which seems to work fine)

The updates failed on 17 July 2014 and all I can see in the log viewer around that time are these view entries

17/07/2014 17:37:14 Error Decoding of product release Sophos Update Manager version RECOMMENDED was not done because the synchronization failed.

Surely the update manager should fix this automatically seeing as all the updates since then having been working OK???

any help would be greatly appreciated

thanks

  • OMG ... its fixed! - After a month of hacking around trying all sorts of things ... it turns out the working folder was the problem.

    Interesting thing now though is the totally cleaned out / reset to default Update Manager has an older version number... perhaps due to the fact its the SEC master and not a remote Update Manager???

    Anyway thanks for all your help Christian - where do I send the case of beers??? hehe :)
