Sophos Enterprise Console issues

Jeremiah Sakala

am kindly asking for some assistance with Sophos Endpoint Security and control v10.7 and Sophos Enterprise Console v5.5.0. at first it was working properly with no issues. but after a month, i found it had stopped working and shows no managed endpoints including server itself as connected. what could be the problem? and its just stuck on downloading binaries.

    Hello Jeremiah Sakala,

    if the server itself is also disconnected then its likely a communications error.
    Guess you have checked that the Sophos services are running. Please see Update Manager stuck at Downloading Binaries for a potential cause and the solution.

    I checked the services are running, but from task manager, the SophosUpdateMgr.exe is showing as not using the CPU, its just a constant "00". but i can also see that the Let me try the link and will update Manager folder in Program Files(x86)\Sophos is showing last modified with today's date.

     

    Let me try the link and I will update

    i started with the first suggestion which is "First check for me is if SUM can report status into the management server." and it didn't reflect the change( didn't report the status), but still went ahead and tried the suggestions in those posts but to no avail. So am still stuck.

    Hello Jeremiah Sakala,

    has your management server one or more than one address?
    One the management server - did you telnet <address> 8192 (successively using the values/names from mrinit.conf for <address>), did this return an address in the IIOP in at least one of the cases and were you able to connect to port 8194 using this address? It's not clear what you mean by tried to no avail.

    Hello Christian,

     

    Sorry couldn't respond in time, was held up.

     

    My management Server has only 1 IP address. Telnet with port 8192 brings lots of numbers then it says "connection lost", with port 8193 no connection, only connects with port 8194.

    Hello Jeremiah Sakala,

    lots of numbers then it says "connection lost"
    this is normal and correct, the lots of numbers are an IOR, you can parse its information for example at parc.com. You should find the server's IP on the reachable with line. No connection on 8193 is also correct, port 8194 connects and after some time disconnects.
    So if the IP returned in the IOR is the correct one there's some other issue. Please stop the Sophos Message Router and Sophos Agent services, start them and check the Router and Agent logs (%ProgramData%\Sophos\Remote Management System\3\...) - post them here if necessary.
