  • Hello Gedas Liugas1,

    apparently the registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{66967E5F-43E8-4402-87A4-04685EE5C2CB} exists as does HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\F5E769668E342044784A4086E55E2CBC. The latter has a subkey InstallProperties, that in turn contains a value LocalPackage.that points to the cached ,msi (e.g. C:\Windows\Installer\abcd1234.msi) from the previous version. It seems that this file does not exist. Is this so?

  • Correct, how can I solve this on 1000 computers? :)

  • Should I remove both or one on the registry values?

  • Hello Gedas Liugas1,

    sorry, was commuting meanwhile.

    I don't recommend removing any of the keys. The underlying problem is that the cached package required for uninstall has for whatever reason disappeared. NTP should continue to work normally, you "just" get the update failures - admittedly annoying but requires no immediate action. if you don't need 10.8.4 you might consider downgrading to Previous Recommended.

    For a handful of endpoints you normally copy the missing .msi ... you need the .msi for the previous version. Depens on what tools you have available. In theory you could put it in \Windows\Installer with a name that doesn't collide (more than 8 characters/digits will do) and modify the LocalPackage value to point to this file.
    I'll think of something - Support might or might not have a better solution though.

    Christian

  • How downgrading to Previous Recommended will affect computers (both failed and successfully upgraded). Does that mean that all successfully upgraded computer will downgrade to previous ntp version without any problems and what is more important failed computers will not fire up alerts and recreates dissapeared .msi?

  • Maybe You know where can I get NTP 1.2.2.50 msi installer? And does ntp 1.2.2.50 LocalPackage name for all computers should be the same, or every single computer has its own, unique LocalPackage name for ntp 1.2.2.50?

  • Hello Gedas Liugas1,

    downgrade should have to bad side-effects, failed endpoints should notice that there's "no change" for NTP and thus clear the error. They won't re-cache the package though.

    You can obtain the previous package by adding a subscription to Previous Recommended. Then just grab it from the new CID. Cached package name can be the same for all endpoints, so it's possible to copy it with the same name to all endpoints and set LocalPackage to the same value for all. Disclaimer: I haven't tested this scenario, should be fairly simple to verify it on one endpoint.

    Good luck
    Christian

  • I think the first thing to do is collect the different versions of the MSI installer file for the NTP package.  You can subscribe to packages in SEC to get these where possible or harvest them off computers that have been offline or snapshots, etc..

    You can then put them in an accessible share, e.g.

    \\server\share\1.8.1555.0\Sophos Network Threat Protection.msi
    \\server\share\1.4\Sophos Network Threat Protection.msi
    \\server\share\1.7\Sophos Network Threat Protection.msi

    The idea then being, a script could run, to get the cached MSI path for the NTP package, if it exists, all is good, if not, for the version of the NTP package installed, copy the correct version from the share to the computer and save it with the cached MSI file name.

    Example PS below, it has no error checking but could be a starting point.  I've not even tested it beyond it printing the right strings.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards,

    Jak
