Forefront Definition Updates not auto installing

Hello!
I inherited SCCM from a previous administrator, and have been learning quite a lot. I've gotten the majority of it down, but I've come across a FEP problem I can't quite resolve.
We have an Automatic Deployment Rule setup to check for definition updates, and then deploy those updates. The User Experience has the Software Installation option checked, and the deployment schedule set for as soon as possible.
All of our servers, and most new workstations, are constantly prompting to install updates for definitions. It was my understanding this ADR we had setup allowed installation outside of the maintenance window automatically. User Experience also has user
notifications set to hide in software center and all notifications.
I'm at a loss as to where to start with resolving this problem. Ideally, we'd like the definitions to be automatically installed without any user prompts.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Do you have any other Client Agent settings deployed to the servers? Also do you have an WSUS GPO settings that apply to the servers?

  • Apps installed on other devices not auto-installing on iphone

    for a while now I have noticed apps installed on my other devices (an older iphone and ipad3) do not auto install on my iphone 4 like they used to... automatically.
    all settings are so they should install ?
    is this a bug?
    thanks

    Yes my ID is authorized. It's the same iBook I've been using since I've had the phone. It's always sync'd without issues before

  • WSUS - Forefront Client definition update not yet been downloaded

    Hi! I need help about 
    Definition Update for Microsoft Forefront Client Security - KB977939 (Definition 1.167.1978.0)

    i downloaded the definition on Microsoft Catalog but i don't now how deploy in my clients with wsus automatically 
    where save the package ? 
    thanks !

    Hi,
    Mostly, update will only be downloaded after approval. So please confirm if you have approved it.
    Since you have downloaded it from Microsoft catalog, you can import it into WSUS server.

  • Automatically upgrade any superseded versions of this application not auto installing - Status always waiting for next maintenance schedule

    Hello,
    I'm trying to deploy an application to a user group with the option checked for "Automatically upgrade any superseded versions of this application" but it never auto installs.
    - The application is set to install to system whether the user is logged on or off. 
    - We do have user affinity, therefore the user does have a one or more primary devices setup.  
    - If I run the install manually, it will superseded and install the new application and uninstall the old applications.
    - The estimated installtion time minutes is set to 0
    - The maxmimum allowed run time is set to 120 minutes.
    We're on version SCCM 2012 SP1.
    My assumption of how it should work
    If the user is logged in or NOT and it's during the maintenance window, it should auto install the application. Maybe I'm wrong.
    Here's the scenario.
    User JohnDoe has application Viewer 1.0 installed on his machine.  He installed this app via the SCCM application catalog.   We now need to deploy Viewer 2.0 of this application.   I want to ensure when it's deployed it replaces Viewer 1.0 hence
    the reason to check the "auto upgrade.."check box.   
    Here's what happens. In software center, it will pre-downlaod the software and then set the status to "Waiting for next maintenance schedule".  The problem is that the status stays like this forever.   We do have maintenance windows set
    on the device collection that JohnDoe's primary device is part of.  Here are our maintenance windows.
    - Daily - 9PM to 5AM = 8 hours
    - Weekly - Saturday - 12:00AM to 12:00 = 24 hours
    - Weekly - Sunday - 12:00AM to 12:00 = 24 hours
    Coordinated UTC is not checked.
    The business hours in software center are set to 5am to 10pm.
    One would assume that it would auto install during the night since we have a big maintenance windows. I checked the ServiceWindowmanager.log and it does seem to show the various maitnenance windows.
    Here's what I've tried
    - If I make the deployment required, it will install right away regarless of maintenance windows.  However, i don't want to use this option because if the user logs in to other machine (e.g. boardroom computer), it will auto install this software.  
    - If JohnDoe clicks install in Software center or application catalog, it works.  There's nothing wrong with the packages.  The issue seems to be related with the maintenance windows. 
    - If I disable the maintenance windows, then it seems to work but only when I'm logged in.  It still does not work if I'm logged out.  It only kicks off the installation when I login if it's not during the business hour set in software center.  
     We need the maintenance windows since we don't want windows patching to occur during the day.
    - I searched and ran the report to ensure there's not another maintenance windows setup that would prevent this from installing.
    Our current workaround
    To ensure users are using the latest version, we deploy the application required for a couple of days, then delete that deployment once we reach a high 90%.  The problem with that is if some computers are turned off, they would be using the older version
    and it will never get upgraded unless the user installs it manually.
    Has anyone encountered this?  Any other log files I should look at? Anything else I should verify ?  I know in SCCM 2012 R2, you can set the maintenance window to only apply this schedule to software update (patching) but that option doesn't seem
    to be available in SCCM 2012 SP1.
    Any help, suggestiong, I will take.  Thanks.

    - If I make the deployment required, it will install right away regarless of maintenance windows.  However, i don't want to use this option because if the user logs in to other machine (e.g. boardroom computer), it will auto install this software. 
    Re-check your deployment, specially the user experience:
    If you've checked the box next to "Software installation", it will install after the deadline has passed and ignores maintenance windows. Change the deployment to required and uncheck that box and the software should be installed according to your
    maintenance windows.

  • RoboHelp 8.0.1 Update not finding installed version 8

    I downloaded and installed (using default options on a Windows XP machine) Adobe RoboHelp 8 trial about a month ago, paid for a license and activated it.
    When I click on Help > Update, I see that an update to 8.0.1 is available. I download it and run it and start the setup process but then says a popup says: "Adobe RoboHelp 8 is not installed. Please install Adobe RoboHelp 8 before applying this patch." and the update fails to install.
    Any idea why it's not finding my installation? The Help > About says I have version 8.0.0.203

    Was there ever any fix for this? I am having the same problem. Have not moved any directories. When I open Robohelp, the version says 8.0.1.204, but when I try and get the 8.0.2 updates, it says that I do not have 8.0.1 installed. I manually ran the 8.0.1 update from the adobe site without error (just in case) and continue to get the error that 8.0.1 is not installed. I have also tried manually running the 8.0.2 update from the site and still get the error.
    The file path is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe RoboHelp 8\RoboHTML.
    The actual version number on robohelphtml.exe file is 8.0.0.203.
    Thanks for the help-
    OS is Windows Server 2003 R2 Build 3790.srv03_sp2_qfe.

  • SCEP Definition Updates not updating

    Hi!
    Our topology consists in one Head Quarter Office Server and 6 Branch Office Servers.
    All systems are updated, except for the systems on one Branch Office.
    I have checked step by step the blog http://blogs.msdn.com/b/scstr/archive/2012/05/31/how-to-scep-amp-settings-amp-automatic-deploymnet-rule.aspx 
    Its everything fine, but the systems persist not updated on that branch office. 
    When I checked the Content Status of FEP Definition Update Deployment Package, it has a status of "In Progress".
    The target server does have enought disk space to receive the content, once I created a prestaged content file and it has about 600MB.
    I removed that content location and then distributed again. How can I follow the logs of that distribution?
    Any suggestion on checking this problem out?
    Thanks in advance. 
    Fabio Martins MCDST/MCSA Brasil!!!

    Hi,
    What's the content status of the update package? In progress?
    1.You could try to increase the number of Maximum threads per package in
    Software distribution component properties under
    Sites ->choose your site -> Configure site components -> Software Distribution.

    http://silentcrash.com/2013/08/packages-content-status-stuck-on-in-progress-in-sccm-2012/
    2.You could also try to cancel the package distribution, then prestage the content.

  • Firmware updates not being installed

    Hey,
    I have a Mid-2012 MacbookAir with all the latest software updates. There are only three firmware updates that always show up over and over again after I've installed them. I've tried everything but the firmware just won't get updated.
    Updates:
    Macbook Air SMC Firmware Update 1.9
    Thunderbolt Firmware Update 1.2
    Macbook Air Flash Storage Firmware Update 1.1
    What I've tried:
    Reset SMC
    Fix drive and drive permissions in recovery mode
    Install updates manually from apple.com in safe-mode
    Delete contents of /system/library/firmware updates/ folder
    Yes the charger has been connected to the computer while updating. I have never used FileVault so it's not on. My computer is working fine, but I'd like to have these updates installed because they fix some serious problems that might eventually break my computer or erase all my data if left unfixed. On top of that I can't install Mavericks until I have Flash Storage Firmware 1.1 update installed.
    Does anyone have any ideas what to do next?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data. Quit the App Store application if it’s running. Test after each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Updates
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder selected. Move the contents of the selected folder to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 2
    Do as in Step 1 with this line:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    If there's no change, quit the App Store and restore the file you moved from your backup, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Otherwise, recreate your settings in the Software Update preference pane.
    Step 3
    Hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Move the following items from the Library folder to the Trash (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate
    Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.*.plist
    Saved Application State/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.savedState
    Here, "*" stand for a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes.
    Step 4
    If you still have problems, quit the App Store again.
    Select this line and copy it to the Clipboard:
    open $TMPDIR../C
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window. Depending on which web browser you use, you may have to press the return key. A folder should open. Inside that folder, there may be a subfolder with the name "com.apple.SoftwareUpdate". If so, delete it. You can then quit Terminal.

    I've been searching for about a month now on an easy way to install third party software updates  for individual workstations using the company's server.
    We have two, one is a 2008 server and the other is 2012 R2.  
    Is there any way I can set it up to where the updates will auto install without prompts or effecting productivity?

    Hi Rick
    there is no way you can set this up using existing built-in tools inside windows server. You would need to setup your existing infrastructure using some 3rd party tools.
    Hope this helps.
