WebGreg 1 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Hello. After logging in, I click on: Help > Update product > Update button. After that I'm logged out and ... that's it. The file EraServerInstaller.log ends with records: 2021-11-28 16:13:38 Information: Installer: Copying installer to target destination: /opt/eset/RemoteAdministrator/Server/setup/installer_backup.sh 2021-11-28 16:13:38 Information: Installer: File ownership set to: root:root 2021-11-28 16:13:38 Information: Installer: Setting auto-start service. 2021-11-28 16:13:38 Information: Installer: Generating Xauthority token. From that date I cannot log in and no new entries have appeared. My support recommended starting with a new virtual machine, but I would not really like to update products this way. Any hints?

ESET Staff MartinK 378 Posted December 7, 2021 ESET Staff Share Posted December 7, 2021 I would recommend to open support ticket in case i has not been done in the meantime. Also could you please provide more details of what kind of environment this is? Is it ESET PROTECT Appliance? If so, there is possibility to deploy new virtual machine with migrated data in case there won't be any other solutions. In case appliance was deployed longer time ago, or it is completely custom server, could you verify "xauth" command is present in the system? It is responsible/user for generating XAuthority tokens that is the last message in the log. But to diagnose this issue, could you please check whether tomcat and eraserver services are actually running on the system? Or console is running and is upgrade, but login fails. In case eraserver service is not running, checking trace.log might provide more details. Also running installation repair by executing installer script: /opt/eset/RemoteAdministrator/Server/setup/installer_backup.sh --skip-license might helps, even it would be very rare - but at least it will possibly show different error mesage, especially in case script is interrupted or stopped with some external reason.

WebGreg 1 Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 Hi @MartinK I have no problem updating e.g. from version 8.0 to 8.1 - it works. The problem is with the jump from e.g. 7 to 8 and now - 8 to 9. Nobody replied for several days, so yes - I deployed a new machine and migrated the data. But it's a bit annoying that with each such update I have to install a new machine. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately this seems to be hard to diagnose without detailed logs - from description it seems that is some more generic problem with upgrade itself, but in case PROTECT or ESMC Appliance as used, there is a minimal chance it will be related to it directly, but I would guess it might be related to data present in database or configuration of virtual machine in terms of available resources (disk size, RAM) - in case there is a lot of data, upgrade might take more resources than actually available and resulting in repeated failure or even in inconsistent state of database, preventing even another upgrade attempts...

WebGreg 1 Posted December 26, 2021 Author Share Posted December 26, 2021 OK thank you. Maybe I will come back to the topic with updating to 10 and then something will be settled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
