It occurs with a specific version of EFSW on other than English systems. Another version of Certfix addressing the issue should be available within today. We're seeing this on multiple English systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 5,070 Posted February 13, 2020 Administrators Share Posted February 13, 2020 Ok, so that must have been misinformation that I got, another developer confirmed that the issue should be language independent. We're working on another version of Certfix that should eventually work also on machines where the current version is crashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mart 0 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 18 hours ago, Marcos said: The current version of CertFix works only with the following versions: Endpoint 6.5.2118, 6.5.2123, 6.5.2132 File/Mail Security 6.5.12017, 6.5.12018, 6.5.14026, 6.5.10057, 6.5.10059 The other versions were tricky to fix but we've managed it eventually. A fix for all v6.5 is being tested and should be available really soon. Thanks Marcos. The new version of CertFix worked like a charm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alur 1 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 We have been working without antivirus for 5 days, are you doing something with Endpoint version 5.0 or are you only working with version 6.5? I'm afraid that another couple of days and I will not have to restore the antivirus, but format the disks on the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 5,070 Posted February 13, 2020 Administrators Share Posted February 13, 2020 Tonight (CET) we are going to publish links to fixes for Endpoint v5. A bit later we plan to release also a fix that will be smaller in size and will download the appropriate installed of the latest v5 Endpoint instead of having it bundled.

rudyooms 1 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) And the other 6.5 versions? @Marcos NIce to hear the v5 is fixed... but al our server with the 6.5 versions are still not working...... It is almost one week now...... maybe i am wrong but in my work when i tell clients to wait a week for a fix..... the guillotine will be put in place to cut off my head... Where can we send the bill, all the extra off hours we have to put in to change the date/reboot/remove the piece of malware or upgrade it??

We released Antivirus and antispyware module 1559.4 for v5 users who can still update and have an affected version installed as a staggered update yesterday and to all v5 users this morning at about 8:30 CET. As for a PCU (program component update) to version 5.0.2272, a decision has not been made yet. PCUs were prone to issues since the product would need to be uninstall and new version installed from scratch which was not always successful. A mechanism for seamless upgrades to newer program versions is now incorporated in Endpoint v7.2 and we plan to take advantage of it for future upgrades (depending on how administrator configures program upgrades).

Disgruntledtech 0 Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 we have a lot of pcs and a few servers still running 5. Is there a way i can run a query somehow to figure out which PCs have a jacked up eset installation? Some PCs are fine..i guess they didnt reboot. I've come across 2 servers that i know have not been rebooted(checked uptime to make sure) yet the install is still screwed up on them. Only 1 of my users has called me so far to let me know that they're seeing error messages from windows action center that AV is not installed. I know i have a lot more users than that where the users just arent reporting or noticing their install is now bad. We have way too many pcs/vms/servers for our team to go through them one at a time.

Do you use ERAv5 or ESET Security Management Center to manage v5? Even in ERA v5 it's possible to create a custom package with the fix and push it to all clients. Even the cliets that are ok will be upgraded to the latest version v5 which was not affected by the issue. Speaking about v5, we would like to hear from you all what are the main reasons for staying with v5 and not upgrading to the latest version v7.2 or 6.5 in case of older operating systems, such as Windows XP. We understand that there may be various reasons, such as old hw, larger networks, etc. and do not force you into upgrade unless the products reach end of life.

Working in a 24/7 environment that doesn't have IT staffed around the clock. Getting the OK to make users reboot, and rebooting the servers outside of windows update downtime is like pulling teeth. If we dont force the users to reboot after the upgrade, then they wont. We've been transitioning for a while now, but its a slow process. For v5 we're using ERAv5. We have no v6 at this point, so all of the rest of our clients are on v7 and we use eset management center for that. Can you link me an article to create the custom package fix for ERA? I've only created the initial default install so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cp3p0 6 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Hi guys, Apologies If I'm replying on-top of anyone. We have a considerably large customer running the affected v5.0xx Endpoint along side a 6.x ERA. All version 5.x machines are updating from a v7.x File Security Mirror server. I've read that the current update module version 1559.4 resolves the issue. Two questions. 1) Is this module updated via Virus signature? Does the Mirror server need "Component Updates" enabled? 2) Is there any clear way to confirm that the affected machines have received this update via the ERA? Before we push out a later product installer, we want to absolutely confirm these machines are ready. Before anyone suggest checking on the endpoint itself, It's not really possible to check the hundreds of machines locally. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
