circumpunct 2 Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 On a few workstations I am getting: "Virus signature database update ended with an error. General compiler error" Clearing the cache, rebooting the workstation and updating the sig again always clears the error. However this is happening repeatedly and is becoming a pain. Any ideas?

Administrators Marcos 4,609 Posted June 8, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 8, 2015 Do you update from a local mirror or from ESET's servers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,609 Posted June 13, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 13, 2015 Please install WDK for your operating system, e.g. from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11800for Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2003. It's enough to install Tools or extract tracelog.exe from the iso image. Then continue as follows: 1, create the folder c:\logs 2, run the following command with elevated administrator rights: tracelog -start updater -guid #f329ae9a-556d-4934-920f-234e835d9ece -f c:\log\update.etl -append -UsePerfCounter -flag 0xff -level 0xff 3, reproduce the issue 4, run the following command with elevated administrator rights: tracelog -stop updater 5, send me the log c:\log\update.etl as well as information about the exact version of the ESET product you have installed.

circumpunct 2 Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 Sorry, I don't really have time for this. We have installed another product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,609 Posted June 17, 2015 Administrators Share Posted June 17, 2015 I'm sorry to hear this as the issue could have been solved quickly if we arranged a remote session and troubleshooted the issue ourselves. ESET employs advanced technologies, such as LiveGrid, Advanced heuristics, Advanced memory scanner, Exploit blocker, Botnet protection and others to proactively protect users against more or less sophisticated threats, adware, potentially unwanted applications, etc. Recently I've personally ran into a case when a company got hit by Filecoder while having ESET temporarily uninstalled due to evaluating a competitive product. It turned out that if they kept ESET installed, we would have protected their systems and especially crucial data that they lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Marcos 4,609 Posted February 24, 2016 Administrators Share Posted February 24, 2016 Please help , I keep getting this general compiler error when I try to update Please follow the instructions in my post above https://forum.eset.com/topic/5121-signature-update-error-general-compiler-error/?p=29176. If you have Endpoint v5 installed and if it updates from a local mirror, make sure the mirror is created by ERA v5.3 and that the latest version of Endpoint v5 is installed to prevent any future issues.

ESET Staff MichalJ 430 Posted February 25, 2016 ESET Staff Share Posted February 25, 2016 I have experienced this in case, when the HDD was almost full. ESET program did not have any empty space to apply the newest database files. It might be worth checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ServiceTechnique 0 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Hi, I ran into this post. I experience the same issue on Windows 10, EES 6.4. I cleared the cache, didn't helped. Any quick fix instead doing an ESET product Repair ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Staff MichalJ 430 Posted February 21, 2017 ESET Staff Share Posted February 21, 2017 One general advice (which might help in some cases): check if you have enough disk space. This happens also when the drive where ESET is installed is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
