10.7.5 lion server software update failed - whats the cause?

Hi all,
I applied the software update for 10.7.5 to my Mac Mini Server, but it looks like it didn't apply correctly.
Server Admin and Server are unable to connect in order to manage system services, Software Update is not able to identify the packages on the machine and therefore gets hungup when it starts.  System services that were working prior to update are now failing (vpnd, webdav).
The system identifies itself as being on 10.7.5, but I believe a number of packages were not upgraded.  For example, the Server and Server Admin tools are showing the same modify times as before the update.  This seems to be confirmed by system.log.
Any ideas how I can get the packages applied?
In system.log, the following entries were added from the time the update was applied:

I've done some more digging and it looks like the three packages included in the update have about 4000 files that didn't get installed.  A good number of them are .png or .icns files, but there are whole applications (e.g. VNCServer) that didn't get updated.
The system is currently in a state where it cannot install software via Software Update or via Installer.
Any ideas?

    Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.

    That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
    I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops.

  • HT6147 Software update failed what do I do?

    I tired to do the software update to the ios 7.0.6 and I get the error message update failed, what do I do to get the update?

    Were you trying to do this update OTA, over the air, by just using the phone? If so, then connect the device to your computer and iTunes and try to update from there.

  • 4S update from 7.1.2 to 8.1.2, says Software update failed

    The device is confirmed it is a 4s, but we never upgraded to IOS 8 yet.  I continue to get the Software Updated failed and the close and settings box comes up.  Whichever you click on it goes back to the update screen.  I am on very fast Wifi and the device is plugged in.  Two days ago it said there was not enough space, so we deleted videos and now there is 5.7 GB available.  I tried to update through ITunes, but the internet is too slow at home and it says 20 hours to update.  We tried that twice and after 15 hours the "software update failed" notification comes up.  Any ideas?  I also turned off the phone and turned it back on.

    I would reset the phone - no data loss involved - and try again

  • IOS 7.0.6 software update failed

    iOS 7.0.6 software update failed.
    The same problem was also with the previous two software updates' attempts. What can I do to solve the problem?
    Many Thanks

    You can try updating using iTunes on the computer, but try this first and let me know how it goes.
    1. Restart your device.
    2. Disable your Wi-Fi.
    3. Turn off your device and keep it off for 5 minutes.
    4. Turn your device back on and enable Wi-Fi.
    5. Try the download again.

  • Software updater fails to connect to server. How can I fix?

    Software updater fails tp connect with the server. I have tried a restart and checked network connections and internet access. I have no problems connecting to internet, App Store and iTunes Store. Help!

    If you know what downloads to look for you get them from support.apple.com.  For example the 10.6.8 combo update v1.1 can be found here.
    The probelm is knowing what to look for and that's why softwere update comes in handy even if you don't want to have it do the downloads.  What's probably going on was that the servers looked by software update were either temporarily down, or as mentioned above, overloaded.  Wait a while and try it again.

  • Lion's Software Update to slow when connecting to a Snow Leopard Server

    I try to make them by our server (10.6.8). The server's conf has been updated as explain in this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4771
    After doing that the server has downloaded all Lion updates.
    When I try to connect with my Lion installed Mac Book Pro, the Software update window appears, but seem to be stuck…
    I've made the test on an Lion installed iMac 27, everything was fine. :/

    you don't need to import users from SL server to lion if your binding to your SL OD master
    the SL OD master users and groups will show in profile manager
    lion server has to be OD master to use profile manager, you'll end up with 2 masters the SL server
    and lion. unless your planing on migrating the SL server to lion
    what I'm currently using,  lion OD master is bound  the SL OD master with out username and password 
    SL server OD master users and groups also appear in WGM on lion server
    sorry I quite don't understand why you'd want to import users from SL into lion
    you'd end up with having to keep to OD's in sync with passwords and users
    which kinda defeats the purpuse of having one point for authentication??
    if you just want to test lion an a separate LAN you could try exporting users and groups computers from SL
    and importing in lion, you'd lose the user passwords
    you could still test lion proile manager without importing users just as you've done
    if you've setup everything correctly and joined the SL OD master from the lion OD master users should appear in WGM and profile manger. in my case I jioned the Lion server to the SL OD master before setting up lion profile manager, OD master etc.

  • IOS 7 Software Update Failed

    Software Update Failed - An error occurred downloading iOS 7.0 Message.

    After retrying 8-10 times, the process seems to be going ahead as it should. 
    Updating my iPad 3 OTA; past "Downloading" (where previous failures occurred accompanied by the error "Software Update Failed: An error occurred downloading iOS 7.0") and now in final stages of "Preparing Update...".  No changes were made to iPad configuration, to network, etc. in between retries. 
    Also, continually received errors downloading iTunes 11.1 for Windows but after a similar number of retries was successful at this as well.
    It would seem that the widespread prognosis of high server load has merit.  As in life, a bit of patience applied goes a long way.  Keep trying, jackh003; soon the memories of primitive iOS6 will be behind you as you explore iOS 7.

  • Software update fails on connection interrupt

    I have two computers, one an Intel Core i5 runing 10.7.2, and the other a Core i7 running 10.7.3. Software Update hangs on checking for new software, or at the start of downloading. The problem seems like it may be related to Airport WiFi. I've noticed that at somewhat random timing, when Software Update is run, the Internet connection on both my DSL modem, and the AirPort Base Station network is dropped, and then comes back in a minute or two. The hang or failure to fetch files follows this interupt. Connection is solid at all other times. (I run connection timing on the menu bar). This is what I get from System.log on the Console:

    I get an error dialoge that says:
    "Software Update can’t connect to the update server. Make sure you’re connected to the Internet, and then try again."
    Now if I recall correctly that both my modem and AirPort Extreme base station are about 4 years old now, and I would consider replacing them, but I have heard rumors that Apple is having problems on the Server end for delivering updates.
    Advice?

    Mine is doing the same thing. Also having issues with it connecting to my time capsule correctly. I have tried running disk utilities and also restarting the computer and zapping the p-RAM. If I can't get updates how will I be able to download the Lion update that fixes the bug?? Ugh.

  • HT4623 i tried to do the software update on my iphone 5 several times. But a tab keeps popping up that reads "SOFTWARE UPDATE FAILED" AN ERROR HAS OCCURED DOWNLOADING i0S 7.0.2." Why won't this phone update?

    My iphone 5 will not update. Have tried several times. keeps popping up "software update failed"...Howcan I get this toupdate??

    This has solved loads of people who have this issue and have used an alternate DNS setting.  Below are instructions for both iPhone OTA and on you Mac
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try an OTA (over the air update)
    Change DNS Servers
    Settings -> Wi-Fi
    Click the blue arrow on your connected network
    Delete everything in DNS and replace it with 208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220
    Try again
    If this works, you will probably want to remove the WiFi network using "Forget This Network" and then reconnect to it to get your original DNS servers back. Alternatively, make a note of the original DNS servers before deleting them and replace it after you are done.
    If you are getting the error message "Unable to check for update" when you try through iTunes
    On your Mac
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Network.
    Select the network connection service you want to use (such as Wi-Fi or Ethernet, unless you named it something else) from the list, and then click Advanced.
    Click DNS, and then click Add at the bottom of the DNS Servers list. Enter the IPv4 address for the DNS server.
    You can use OpenDNS
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    or
    You can Google Public DNS if you want
    8.8.8.8
    8.8.4.4
    I have actually repointed my routers DNS so all my devices now point to OpenDNS servers

  • When I click on Firefox it opens with a box that says "Foxfire is installing your updates and will start in a few moments-. " then it says "Software Update Failed (in blue) with an exclamation mark inside a yellow triangle) The update could not be install

    When I click on Firefox the first time it says "Foxfire is installing your updates and will start in a few moments…. (with a green bar)" then it says "Software Update Failed (in blue) with an exclamation mark inside a yellow triangle)
    The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer, and then restart Firefox to try again." When I click the ok, Firefox opens up. If I open another Firefox window with the previous one still running, it doesn't give me any of these messages, it just opens normally.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    If you can't install on top of the current installation then you need to delete or rename the current Firefox program folder to do a clean install.
    It is possible that your security software is using or locking files, so you can try to temporarily disable that software during the installation.

  • Have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion with Safari Version 5.0.5. Now I can not update to Safari 5.1. There is no update in the Software Updater, and on the apple-download page, I only found a Safari 5.1 for Snow Leopard. When executing it, there is an e

    I have updated from Snow Leopard to Lion with Safari Version 5.0.5. Now I can not update to Safari 5.1. There is no update in the Software Updater, and on the apple-download page, I only found a Safari 5.1 for Snow Leopard. When executing it, there is an error message, that it is for 10.6 only.
    It seems that I should have first updated Safari, and then only to Lion, which I didn't. Any idea how I can fix this now without having to rollback to Snow Leopard, update Safari and then go back to Lion?

    Try this Safari5.1 from the installer package

    The download worked better with Firefox not sure why. At the bottom of the page after the captcha>> slow down load is the Free link,  it took about 4 minutes to download on my test.

  • Still getting "Software Update Failed" when attempting to download iOS 7 on iPhone 4S.

    I've tried countless times now to download iOS 7 on my 4S which is currently running iOS 6.1.3. It downloads completely then in the "Preparing Update..." stage it gives me an error box saying "Software Update Failed. An error occurred downloading iOS 7.0." The same thing happens every time, I've rebooted and reset my pone several times as well as logging in an out of my Apple ID all with no success. It's not like it takes an unusual amount of time downloading or anything, and once it finishes downloading it shows less storage in the "About" section in "Settings" but goes back to where it was once it gives the error message. Just a note, I was able to download iOS 7 on my iPad 3 the day the software was released without a long waiting period or any hassle. I appreciate any input. Thank you.

    Thanks for the response. I have 16.5 GB of available space at the moment. I've tried it connected to a wall charger and connected to my wifi, my schools wifi, and my gyms wifi all with no success. I have not tried it from iTunes but after posting this question a few suggestioned discussions came up, one of which recommended backing up to iCloud or iTune and then performing a complete restore. I'm in the process of doing that now, whether it works or doesn't work I will get back to either way. Thanks again.

    ps: sorry for my english :S

    You apparently are using a version of OS X you did not purchase using your Apple ID. Although you can download Mavericks you cannot install it over your current system. You must repartition your hard drive, then reinstall the version of OS X originally installed when it came new from the factory. That would be on the installer discs that should have come with the computer. If the computer did not come with discs from the factory but OS X was pre-installed (Lion or Mountain Lion) then you can perform an Internet Recovery:
    Install Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion Using Internet Recovery
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    Boot to the Internet Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    1. Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    2. After DU loads select your external hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion. Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
