Update/backup to 4.1 does not work

Hi,
according the Release Notes, it is not possible to update from 4.0 to 4.1.
Instead, you need to backup 4.0, create a new installation 4.101 and import the backup config.

Doing so, basic configuration parameter are missing. [:@]
The Webui uses the standard port instead of the one configured on the former SUM.
The lisence has been gone. You see now a 30 day lisence.
Systems settings are missing (e.g. ssh access) and so on. Notifications are gone.

The backup on SUM 4.0 has been made with a standard manual backup.
These options were unticked
[] Unique site data (License, passwords, certificates/keys)
[] Administrative mail addresses.

So more or less all changes which you do in the SUM are gone.
The Gateway Mananager itself 'see' the devices (ASG,UTM).

Did I something wrong? Do I need a new lisence? Do I need to add/change all parameter manually?

Cheers,
ciscoman

  • ok,
    obviously I'm the only one using this product.
    Will switch back to 4.0 and wait if there will be an 'update procedure' as on the standard ASG/UTM.

    Aehm, update requires a specific version...

    Verifying up2date package signature
    Unpacking installation instructions
    You are currently running Version 4.000002, but Version 4.101008 is required for this up2date package.

  • Same problem here. 
    For the virtual appliance there is no package to get the 4.1
  • They have not released an up2date package to take one from 4.002 to 4.1xx yet... my understanding is that they will eventually.  For folks that are not resellers / MSPs, there's not a whole lot new in 4.1xx (some cosmetics, a minor bugfix or 2); the primary purpose for 4.1xx is to enable the new MSP licensing model.

  • according to sum devs i've talked to the only way to go to 4.1 is a full reinstall.

    And as I said, today, looks like the 4.102 up2dates are being pushed out, just saw it on one of my Lab boxes [:)]

  • I´am not able to update from 4.000-2 to 4.103-9.

    The update process stops at 1% (Verifying up2date package signature).

    Any ideas to run the up2date?

    Hi Stefan,

    yes it´s an option but I did not want to do the work. It works now but up2date would be easier.

    It´s a shame that sophos is not able to give us working up2date packages - it´s not the first time I have problems with up2date.
