  • 1.  LiveUpdate: SEPM only receives client package updates - but no more definitions!

    Posted Aug 03, 2010 01:19 AM
    Since the migration from RU5 up to RU6, our SEPM isn´t upgrading its definition files. The only things it gets via LU are client packages...
    Tried to run LU manually, it lists several definition file updates, downloads them...but when installing, the last update shows "finishing installation....". After that, LU summary shows everything upgraded well - but the 'Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager content catalog' failed to install due to Error 1846...

    - Did a repair of LU, re-registered its content catalog, ran the update several times manually, purged the cache - nothing worked!
    - Upgraded the SEP client on SEPM manually to 11.0.6005.562
    - ran LU from the SEPM console - only client package updates are shown (and up to date)
    - implemented a .jdb-file - definitions are upgraded without errors!  
    - also followed several instructions from here - no one did it...

    any hints?

    Source is Internet directly
    EDIT: Tried to use our internal FTP/HTTP-Server for upgrade - SAME error! 
              
    Application protocol lists error 13, event source Sesclu:

    LiveUpdate returned a non-critical error. Available content updates may have failed to install.

    Hi ,

    I Have exact the same problem on my server ,
    I also upgraded from RU5 To RU6. My server is't updating the definitions anymore ,
    The folder \program files\Symantec\Symantect Endpoint protect manager\data\inbox\content is fillig up with folders end on .tmp.

    I also reinstaled LU ,
    ran lucatalog -cleanup and lucatalog -update
    when I drop a jdb file into the incomming folder the server updates the definitions on the manager and the clients.

    I ran out of things to test of try ..
    any help is welcome to solve this issue.

    After removing Liveupdate do you deleted following folders before installing it back?
    C:\Program Files\Symantec\LiveUpdate 
    C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate

    if no uninstall liveupdate,remove above folders,register it back with SEPM...

    uninstalled LU, removed all folders, purged lost registry entries pointing on "liveupdate", reinstalled LiveUpdate from CD RU6, registered LU with SEPM...
    Then I configured LuCONFIG.EXE with 'advanced error support' and 'interactive mode' - ran LU and the 'content catalog'-error didn´t appear.

    Ran LU from within SEPM console - definitions are updated!

    Wrong/not matching version of LiveUpdate...

    Aravind ,

    That did the trick ,

    I uninstalled Liveupdate ( version was 3.5.0.64 )
    deleted the folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\LiveUpdate. the other one was already gone.
    Restarted the server.
    Installed Lu from the DVD of RU6 build (version 3.3 )
    ran lucatalog -update from the command line

    I logged on to the console and started LU
    Now it downloaded everything and updated the definitions of the SEP server

    Thanks for the advice

    It is always recommendable to use liveupdate 3.3 with enterprise products.That is why I asked you from were you are installing liveupdate.The Live update present in cd is 3.3...
