Errors of Package server
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 2 comments
Hi All
I picked up this error on one of my package servers. The net effect of it is that the package server is unable to download any further packages from the NS. See excerpt below. If anyone has any ideas, please help...
Thanks

Hello jloubser,
Try to re-register (regsvr32) the AeXCompress module (which is a COM dll) that is handling the compression/decompression for the Altiris Agent.
