Update to new agent wont work on several servers

[ucvijan 4]

Hi, 

 

There is less than 10% of workstations that wont update the agent. One of the errors that is on every workstation from trace.log :

 

2015-09-28 14:12:27 Error: CEssConnectorModule [Thread 118c]: Set policy failed: CNodcommChannel: Send request failed with 14, Command failed - Make sure that Agent runs with Administrator privileges.

 

Strange thing is that all workstations are in domain, and group policies are the same for all, so permissions should not be the problem here. But what can i do to check if the issue is with permissions?Agent is running as which user? Also there is some error, with replication:

 

 Error: NetworkModule [Thread 854]: Unable to resolve any endpoints.resolve: (0x2af9), No such host is known

But i can resolve server host name with no problem, and also if this is a problem, it would be the problem for all workstations ( i guess).

Just to bump this. Is there any solution to the errors i get for several servers? At least something, where to look and what?

Hello,

Are the clients with the permission issue same as the ones with the replication issue?

If so, does uninstalling and reinstalling the Agent resolve the issue?

[ucvijan 4]

I didnt try to reinstall the agent, as i had problems with remote uninstall (from ERA) before. And users (mostly developers)  are already frustrated that computer froze and had to restart the workstation. Problem was, their work was not saved. So i was looking for some solution where i will not bother them directly. 

 

Checked in the trace logs on all workstations that wont update the agent. And each has the same problem  with permission issue, and only couple with the resolving issue.

 

One of them has this as well as next to the permission issue:

Maybe I am doing something wrong with uninstalling the agent form ERA console. I should go with the task:

Stop Managing (Uninstall ERA Agent)

 

That should be enough, and them to install the agent again (by that i mean deploy)?

Hello, as nobody had any suggestions for this case, please contact your local customer care in order to investigate the issue further.

Thank you.

Just to make sure, are you using the latest version of ERA? Another customer claimed that upgrading ERA components to the latest version via the ERA Component Upgrade task solved the issue.
