Sophos Enterprise Console upgrade fails - The MSI terminated unexpectedly.

Hi folks,

 

Today I attempted to upgrade from version 5.4.1 to 5.5.0 with no luck.  The first error I received was what was stated in the Subject line with a link to look here:  https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/121420

However that patch is not even installed on my Server.  I rebooted the server and tried again.  This time it told me to uninstall the Management Server (which I did).  However it will still not install.  These are some of the errors that I am seeing in the bootstrap installation log.

 

4/11/2017 2:39:53 PM, WARNING : Could not copy SmAgentAPI.dll from C:\sec_550\ServerInstaller\pre-reqs\SmAgent\SmAgentAPI.dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11\win32_x86\plugins\auth\secLDAP\SmAgentAPI.dll, copyFile return 5 - Access is denied.

 

Also towards the end of the log, see the errors below.

At this point in time, the Enterprise console etc is completely hosed.  Thankfully this server is a virtual one and I plan on restoring from last night's VEEM backup to get the server and Enterprise Console into working condition.

Any thoughts on this?  Do I need to call support for assitance on this one?  Thanks!
