You must install the WSUS update on both your WSUS and Patch Manager servers. Each server will need to be restarted. This will resolve the issue.

I was actually looking for this. It is working perfectly for us. Thanks!

I have three duplicate packages in my Apple package list. The original three packages are listed as Expired, but their replacements are identical in wording, MSI product code and references. Why wouldn't this be a revision? There could be a difference that I'm missing. I just want to make sure folks with the IOS 7 itch…

I may have overstated the occurrences. We have had Patch Manager for three years, and we are talking perhaps 5-6 total. We have a nightly scheduled sync at 11:00pm, and then I usually run a manual sync whenever there is an announcement of an update that we need. I just thought that the condition may be similar to what the…

That happens to me on occasion. Once this thread is updated with news of a new update being available, I usually give it a couple of hours before I attempt sync. It sounds like you might have synced at just the right time window to where it wasn’t quite ready.

I checked the Adobe FTP site, and I didn't see a .MSP rollup file. That's usually when the upgrade-only patches get released. If that turns out to be the case, you can make a duplicate of the new Reader package and add prerequisites to check for an existing Adobe Reader installation.

Thank you for the link. I will check it out.

Looking forward to it. Thanks!

I'm guessing we can treat this like a ''sticky" and check up every so often, eh? Thanks!

Sure thing. Microsoft deserves a ding for the way those service packs are listed in the Add/Remove.

I have (finally) updated the report to omit those options. Microsoft's entries for the Office 2007 SP3 leave the Publisher field empty. That's why they didn't get caught in the initial report. Here is how they are shown in the report: Adding this criteria filtered out the values. I set the values as specific as possible…

Do you want me to update it since I can see those Office 2007 SP3 entries?

This is actually along the lines of a project that I'm working on. To reduce our attack vector, we are removing a few unneeded third party apps on desktops and servers - Adobe Flash, Acrobat, Java, Firefox, Chrome and such. I ran the report against a couple of our machines. It ran great. It does show some items related to…

Nevermind. I found my answer HERE - http://thwack.solarwinds.com/message/173383#173383

Myself and have been working on a report that will show all non-MS apps installed on a PC. Check it out here: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/docs/DOC-167284 . In addition to this, posted a really good report that focuses on Approved Updates. Check it out here: http://thwack.solarwinds.com/docs/DOC-167268 Let me know if you…

I'm late to the party (no pun intended), but I would like to extend belated birthday wishes as well. Lawrence's no-nonsense approach and incredible depth of knowledge makes this technology the best it can be. Happy 21st?

I think I was a little braindead yesterday afternoon. RE: Java - are you trying to build one of the PM 3rd party packages from the repository? There was a trick to getting the MSI for some of those. Let me know if you need any help with that format as well.

, depending on which Java package you are installing, the process for obtaining the CAB file may vary. Can you note the specific Java package(s) you're trying to deploy?

I am interested in this as well. I am having troubles installing the MSI version of the new FP ActiveX package.

For those that need it, please refer to for details on how to resolve this.

Failed to publish (package name). Publishing operation failed because the console and remote server version do not match The resolution to this was to manually apply the latest Update for Windows Server Update services 3.0 SP2 (2720211) to the Patch Manager server, which can be found in the following link.…

Try this: http://dl.google.com/edgedl/chrome/win/20.0.1132.47_chrome_installer.exe . I typically keep track of these when I publish this package because we block Filehippo as well.

I am not sure if your particular MIB will be in this file, but a random web dude posted a collection of all Netgear MIBs. Go here: http://www.kossboss.com/all-mibs . Here is a directory of MIBs, and most (if not all) are for Netgear. They are a combination of the MIBs on Oidview and the gentleman's link above:…
