Log file for manual download Endpoint Protection Definition Updates

Hi,
I am downloading manually endpoint protection definition updates from SCCM 2012 R2, which log file I have to check for download progress.
Regards,
Manzoor Ahmed

If you are downloading updates manually you will need to have an alternate source other than ConfigMgr for definition updates.

Here is a list of the logs for SCEP.

The logs depend on which sources you have set for updates, if you have updates coming from windows update or WSUS then you could look at WindowsUpdate.log

SCEP 2012R2 downloading Endpoint Protection definitions from Microsoft, rather than using internal Distribution Point

Hi all,
Need your help figuring out why SCEP definitions are being updated from Microsoft and not from the local DP.
* I have a new 5 site SCCM hierarchy with a Primary site installed in EMEA HQ and a secondary site in 4 x USA offices.
* A Software update point and Endpoint protection point are deployed in HQ primary site.
* Software updates for SCEP have been synched down to the Primary site server which has WSUS role installed, a software update group created and an Automatic Deployment rule created to push these definition updates to the relevant device collection.
* Distribution > Content Status shows the software update package has been replicated successfully to all 5 DP's in the environment.
* An antimalware policy that specifies only SCCM as the definition updates has been created and is deployed to the relevant device collection.
* Custom client settings that disable alternate sources for initial definition update have also been created and deployed to the relevant device collection.
**** Yet, a closer look at the MPRUNCMD.log on client machines, shows that definition updates are coming from Microsoft
I'm baffled why they still download from Microsoft despite disallowing this and making the DP the only source.

Note - One of the secondary sites has a very poor internet connection, so it's not feasible for definitions to be downloaded from the web. This is why a solution is required.
Thanks....

Hi,
Could these clients get other updates from SCCM?
You could check the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CCM\EPAgent\LastAppliedPolicy to see if the definition updates policy is applied to the client.

System Center Endpoint Protection Definition Updates

Hi can anyone advise deploying definitions via SCCM 2012 and selecting the source as being "Updates distributed from Configuration Manager" does that mean each client will go to the Primary Site to get updates? Or by using ADR will it ensure that
definitions come via distribution points?
Also another question, as sccm 2012 is not rolled out to all sites yet, and will be deploying unmanaged clients, when I deploy the SCEP client offline un-managed with a policy file, is there a way then later to change policy on the client by command line?

You could configure updating SCEP in many ways, including:
Updates distributed from Configuration Manager – This method uses Configuration Manager software updates to deliver definition and engine updates to computers in your hierarchy.
Updates distributed from Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) – This method uses your WSUS infrastructure to deliver definition and engine updates to computers.
Updates distributed from Microsoft Update – This method allows computers to connect directly to Microsoft Update in order to download definition and engine updates. This method can be useful for computers that are not often connected to the business network.
Updates distributed from Microsoft Malware Protection Center – This method will download definition updates from the Microsoft Malware Protection Center.
Updates from UNC file shares – With this method, you can save the latest definition and engine updates to a share on the network. Clients can then access the network to install the updates.

Endpoint Protection Definition Update Source

I need to determine where an Endpoint Protection Client is getting updates from, whether it's the SCCM server, WSUS, or Microsoft's Windows Update. Is there a log file somewhere that I could use to determine that information?
Vincent Sprague

Have a look in C:Windows\Windowsupdate.log.

SCCM 2012 Endpoint Protection Definition Update

Hi Guys, can you please help me out with this, some of the clients are not pulling or seeing the latest definition updates from the server.
What do I check?

Again - Start with the EndpointProtectionAgent.log file on the clients

I have completely uninstalled the HRC, and download from server install again -- still doesn't work with exactly same error.
this matter only happens on this PC, when user try same thing on other PC, it works.
so i think it not relate to server or account.

How to create different log files for each of web applications deployed in OC4J

Hi All,
I am using OC4J(from Oracle) v1.0.2.2 and Windows2000. Now I want to know
1. how to create different log files for each of my deployed web applications ?
2. what are the advantages in running multiple instances of oc4j and in what case we should run
multiple instances of OC4J ?
3. how to run OC4J as Windows2000 Service rather than Windows2000 Application ?
Thanks and Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Avi,
First of all I have given a first reading to log4j and I think there will some more easy way of logging debugging messages than log4j (If you could provide me a detailed explanation of a servlet,jsp,java bean that uses log4j and how to use log4j then it will be very helpful for me). The other easy ways (if I am not using log4j) to my problem i.e creating different log files for each of web applications deployed in oc4j are
I have created multiple instances of OC4J that are configured to run on different ports and so on each instance I have deployed a single web application . And I started the 2 oc4j instances by transferring thier error/log messages to a file. And the other way is ..
I have download from jakarta site a package called servhelper . This servhelper is a thread that is started in a startup servlet and stopped in the destroy method of that startup servlet. So this thread will automatically capture all the system.out.println's and will print those to a file. I believe that this thread program is synchronized. So in this method I need not run multiple instances of OC4J instead each deployed web application on single instance of oc4j uses the same thread program (ofcourse a copy of thread program is put in each of the deployed web applications directories) to log messages on to different log files.
Can you comment on my above 2 approached to logging debugging messages and a compartive explanation to LOG4J and how to use LOG4J using a simple servlet, simple jsp is appreciated ...
Thanks and Regards,
Ravi.

What purpose is the Data field in the registry on an individual file extension exclusion in Endpoint Protection?

File extension exclusions for System Center Endpoint Protection are at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Microsoft Antimalware\Exclusions\Extensions
and consist of a REG_DWORD value, named as a file extension such as .mdf, and a corresponding Data element, which always appears to be 0x00000000
Can this data value ever be anything else, and if so, what are the possible values and their meanings? If not, I'm curious why not just make it a REG_SZ and leave it blank, rather than a data type that requires a value.

The data field is always 0x00000000. I think other values would be ignored. Only the Name field seems to be important.
The funny thing is that the exclusion entry can be a REG_SZ and it will work just the same. In fact, if you use the tool that creates a GPO to deploy EP policy instead of using ConfigMgr, the entries are created as REG_SZ instead of DWORD.
I'm not sure why both methods are used, but the antimalware engine seems to interpret them the same.

Hi All,
I am getting an error message "All available connections to database server are in use by other client machines. Please try again later and check the log file for error 5054" when trying to log into HRC (This user has the reporting capabilities) . I checked the log files this is what i found out

What is the OS version of the PC you are running and is it physical machine or virtual machine that is running the HRC client ..
OS Version Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and it’s a physical machine.
. The Max DB Connections for Report Client Sessions is set to 5 for each servers (There are two servers). The no of HR Sessions is set to 10.
I wanted to know if there is a way to find the HRC sessions active now and terminate the one or more or all of that sessions from the server end ?

We have had this "PRX5" problem with Exchange 2013 since the RTM version. We recently applied CU3, and it did not correct the problem. We have seen this problem on every Exchange 2013 we manage. They are all installations where all roles
are installed on the same Windows server, and in our case, they are all Windows virtual machines using Windows 2012 Hyper-V.
We have tried all the "this fixed it for me" solutions regarding DNS, network cards, host file entries and so forth. None of those "solutions" made any difference whatsoever. The occurrence of the temporary error PRX5 seems totally random.
About 2 out of 20 incoming mail test by Microsoft Connectivity Analyzer fail with this PRX5 error.
Most people don't ever notice the issue because remote mail servers retry the connection later. However, telephone voice mail systems that forward voice message files to email, or other such applications such as your scanner, often don't retry and
simply fail. Our phone system actually disables all further attempts to send voice mail to a particular user if the PRX5 error is returned when the email is sent by the phone system.
Is Microsoft totally oblivious to this problem?
PRX5 is a serious issue that needs an Exchange team resolution, or at least an acknowledgement that the problem actually does exist and has negative consequences for proper mail flow.

How to create different log files for different levels

Hi,
Can some one please help me with my problem I have here?
I want to send log data to two diffrent files depending on the logging level such as DEBUG and WARN using the same logger instance.
How can you configure this in log4j.properties.
Please post sample code for log4j.properties to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.
Anurag SIngh

Hi,
I have tried your code. the issue is other log file for error is blank. its not writting log to that file.
following is the code of my log4j.properties
Please read the code first
# Set root logger level to DEBUG and its only appender to A1.
log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG,A1
#Appender and its layout for A1
log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.A1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A1.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %log4j.appender.A1.Threshold=DEBUG
log4j.appender.A1.File=./LogonApplication_Debug.log
log4j.appender.A1.Append=true
#Appender and its layout for A2
log4j.appender.A2=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.A2.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.A2.layout.ConversionPattern=%-4r [%t] %-5p %c %x - %
log4j.appender.A2.Threshold=ERROR
log4j.appender.A2.File=./LogonApplication_Error.log
log4j.appender.A2.Append=true
In my logger class i have written something like this:
public static Logger myLogger = Logger.getLogger (LoggerTest.class.getName());
     public static void main(String args[]){
          myLogger.debug("I have logged a debug message");
          myLogger.error("I have logged an error message");
Issue:
Now the problem is that it is creating two files specified in the configuration but it is logging messages both the messages debug and error in only ./LogonApplication_Debug.log file.
Though it is creating the ./LogonApplication_Error.log file, but it is only blank.
Can you please trace whats missing/wrong.
Thanks a lot.

Is it possible to create materialized view log file for force refresh

Is it possible to create materialized view log file for force refresh with join condition.
Say for example:
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW VU1
REFRESH FORCE
ON DEMAND
AS
SELECT e.employee_id, d.department_id from emp e and departments d
where e.department_id = d.department_id;
how can we create log file using 2 tables?
Also am copying M.View result to new table. Is it possible to have the same values into the new table once the m.view get refreshed?

You cannot create a record as a materialized view within the Application Designer.
But there is workaround.
Create the record as a table within the Application Designer. Don't build it.
Inside your database, create the materialized with same name and columns as the record created previously.
After that, you'll be able to work on that record as for all other within the Peoplesoft tools.
But keep in mind do never build that object, that'll drop your materialized view and create a table instead.
Same problem exists for partitioned tables, for function based-indexes and some other objects database vendor dependant. Same workaround is used.

Java.util.logging - different log files for different loggers

I'm having trouble configuring Java logging to use different log files for different loggers.
In log4j, I would do this by configuring multiple loggers each with a different appender. But how can I do this with Java (java.util.logging) logging?
This is the basic idea of what I'd like to do:
com.mycompany.app1.level = FINEST
com.mycompany.app1.<log file> = logfile1.log
com.mycompany.app2.level = ALL
com.mycompany.app2.<log file> = logfile2.log
Any suggestions?

This kind of thing?
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.logging.FileHandler;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
import java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter;
public class LogTest {
    private Logger app1;
    private Logger app2;
    public LogTest() {
        // setup loggers
        try {
            // first logger
            app1 = Logger.getLogger("com.mycompany.app1");
            FileHandler filehandler = new FileHandler( "logfile1.log" );
            filehandler.setFormatter(new SimpleFormatter());

            filehandler.setFormatter(new SimpleFormatter());
