Sophos Update manager failing with 8040410 error Software Subscription was invalid (corrupt or incomplete)

don

Hi,

 

Were running Sophos on premises Enterprise Console 5.5. Updates started to fail about a week ago with the error in the heading. Our license is good till 2018. EC Log viewer shows the following errors (examples there multiple occurences of these errors):

19/07/2017 13:16:29    Error    Decoding of product release F1DAD925-C973-4e5e-B172-78E97EB60689 version RECOMMENDED was not done because the synchronization failed.

19/07/2017 13:16:29    Error    Version information for product 'F1DAD925-C973-4e5e-B172-78E97EB60689' was not gathered by dispatcher 'DispatcherSupplements-2017-07-19T12-09-45-1', as the last synchronization of that product failed.

19/07/2017 13:09:50    Error    The synchronization of product release 'F1DAD925-C973-4e5e-B172-78E97EB60689' failed as a required part 'F1DAD925-C973-4e5e-B172-78E97EB60689' could not be found.

I've tried stop SUM service and clearing out Warehouse, Working and CIDs directories on the Update Manager Server and then restarting SUM service but without any luck. Any suggestions would be appreciated before I raise a call with Sophos.

    Hello don,

    did you check whether you have a subscription for a product that has been retired (as per the 80040410 article)? Haven't seen F1DAD925-C973-4E5E-B172-78E97EB60689 recently.

    Hi Christian,


    That's interesting.

     

    The two  subscriptions we're using are:

    Windows Recommended - for computers that need the most upto date protection. KBA 119216.

    Linux  - 9 recommended.

     

    I think we are only have subs to current products but that key is telling you something then maybe there's something up. On a skim look through in log viewer all the errors refer to F1DAD925-C973-4E5E-B172-78E97EB60689 - so on that basis I had a look around our endpoint Updating poliy appears to have this:

    Okay I'll remove F1D etc. We rejigged some preview and previous updates recently. I'll let you know how it goes.

    Thanks. Something has gone wrong with the Recommend sub. I've set the update to Previous Recommended (not ideal) but SUM is now working. We had set Previous Recommended before for a short while to help manage network bandwidth due to a large update. We then began to switch back to Recommend. Something has gone awry. SUM is now updating but against Previous. I'm not sure why it's registering Recommended in the way that it is. The downside is that AV will probably be resetup on the client but at least the identity files will be upto date. Hopefully. Again I'll post anymore info I have here but do you know anyway of deleting the current Recommend sub and re-creating.

    Hello don,

    AFAIK the available products and their details are downloaded from the Sophos warehouse and stored in \Warehouse\catalogue - can't check right now if there's still a sumcf.dat. As you've emptied the Warehouse this should have been recreated though.
    You say it's the RECOMMENDED Linux version or all Recommended? There could be some error on the backend and if your product list seems to be corrupt you should contact customercare@sophos.com
