Problems with Office 365 / Office 2016

We are now unable to install Office365 / Office 2016 using the Office Deployment Tool.  Because we have a bunch of new things from Sophos going on (new firewall, anti-virus int he cloud and the "ultimate" beta) we are struggling to find the source of the problem.

We do know there are issues with the firewall and the download of the software.

We also know that once we get around the download problem the installation is failing both inside and outside the firewall, indicating that  it might be an antivirus issue. 

The error I can find is "C2R client returned failing error code 17002".  Following through Microsoft's troubleshooting, the one thing I haven't done yet is disable anti-virus.

When deploying to enterprises (even small ones like mine) having to disable anti-virus on each one to deploy software is going to be a pain in the butt. ( I posted  something about not being able to disable tamper protection for "Spectrum" / "Sophos Ultimate").

Please include ways that administrators can distribute software without massive painful hurdles to cross.

  • I agree Daniel, it would be nice to disable Tamper Protection from the Sophos Central and then push out the install right from your desk. Instead we have to sneakernet to the machine, put in the password, and disable it. The Enterprise Console version used to allow this, if I remember correctly, (set via policy)

    feature request??

  • We don't need to disable tamper protection if we can disable whatever it is that is keeping us from not being able to install Office, We know it is something with endpoint protection, but not what.

    We need better information from the endpoint protection / Sophos Central to identify what the source of the problem is.
