I suspect we have some form of corruption in our Patch Manager database. The Data Orion is reporting does not match the information on the WSUS Servers but it is talking correctly to the Patch Manager Server as all the task information is correct. Is it just a case of shutting down Patch Manager, getting the Database…
Patch Manager created a local service account on the server on which it is install. That account is trying to login to other servers and failing because it's a local account that only exists on the Patch Manager server. Is there supposed to be a domain service account? Where do I change what account Patch Manager uses? I…
Hello, I had previously been running Patch Manager seamlessly, but started experiencing problems with the EminentWare Data Grid Server (ewdgs) service. I cleared the existing values in the Registry Editor, and was then able to successfully start the service. Although, I am now in a different predicament; Patch Manager…
Hi, We have been successfully using CM2012 and PM 1.8 to deploy 3rd party updates. We want now to test and deploy iTunes but so far we have not been able to get the CM 2012 to display the application as part of the All Software Updates like it does with everything else that we are publishing through PM. We have a dedicated…
We use CM2012 with PM and we are facing an issue installing Flash Player ActiveX 11.8. AF 11.8 is not getting installed (MSI or EXE) on any of the Win7 (64 bit) company laptops. We have been working with Solarwinds technical support but unfortunately the issue has not been resolved. We have tried everything we have been…
I have created a custom third party package. However, when I attempt to "install updates" on the client computer when logged on as a non admin user, it requires admin rights and displays the UAC prompt. When logged in as an admin it installs perfect. Windows update shows the following when attempting to download using…
I am working on creating a package that displays a popup to users. For example, if I create a batch file, and include a shutdown command, the shutdown command can be configured to pop up a text message and also a timer which tells users that their machine will be rebooted. The package works as expected when used…
We shut down our Eminentware server but kept our WSUS server active. Even without Eminentware, every new computer tries to install the EminentWare WMI Providers 1.71.210.1 update. How do I "remove" this from WSUS? I have already renamed the package in C:\WSUS\UpdateServicesPackages but it still tries to update (and fails).…
Hello all, I'm trying to create a custom patch to upgrade all of our draftsight installations (a free CAD program). I've given up on actually figuring out applicability, and have just set it to Win XP or greater (same as prerequisite rule), thus making the update applicable to all our computers. The following "installed"…
I had some end user complaints that the New Updates notification on the Windows 7 (x64) machines would reoccur no matter how many times they manually tried t install the approved+deployed updates. It turns out that the full EXE build for Flash 11.4.402.178 (both ActiveX and Plugin) were installing themselves over and over…
