Reader v11 Update fails on Windows Vista (entire network) with error 1310

Tried to run the Reader v11 updater after installing v11.  It fails comsistently with error 1310, although the file in the error message is different each time.  The file is usually, but not always, in the folder config.msi.
We had this problem in the Reader v10 updaters as well, however we traced it to a race condition in file handling.  We could get it to install by running other programs concurently or disabling anti-virus, to alter the timing of the install.  Usually it took 3 to 6 attempts for it to complete successfully.
With the v11 updater, no amount of iterations will get it to install.  We've tried upwards of 20 times.  We've also tried re-installing v11 and then applying the update over a fresh copy.  That does not work either.  The usual tricks that worked with v10 also do not work with v11.
This problem could be solved easily if the updater would prompt the user for a retry on error, instead of automatically rolling back.  For the main installer, the user is prompted to retry, but not for the updater.  We run plenty of installers in the school without problems, but the Reader updates are always difficult.
We have wasted dozens of hours on this in our school.  We are supposed to keep the Reader patched to avoid the significant vulnerabilities it introduces, but we cannot get the updater to run.  If anyone else has solved this problem please let us know.

Lorraine, I posted a question in the Adobe Reader forums about the
problems we have with the updaters.  I got back this response, they
are blaming it on other software and the Windows Installer.  I think
that can't be true, we install all kinds of stuff without problems.
So I think the truth is they've done a crappy job on their updaters.
The latest update is for an extremely serious vulnerability, it's
active in the  wild and has made the national news.  So if we can't
install the update, then I think we have to move away from Adobe
altogether, to another reader.
Can you think of any reason not to do this?

  • Windows Vista flooding network with dhcpv6 renew requests

    I have a few Vista Enterprise and they are causing a lot of headaches. I found out that they are doing DHCPv6 Renew every now and then which is not actually a problem but the request comes flooding by the thousands within a few seconds (as shown
    below when captured with wireshark) causing a network flood.
    fe80::b589:8846:69f9:6f3d ff02::1:2 DHCPv6 196 Renew XID: 0x1c110e CID: 000100011b199761001a4b3f6fba IAA: 2001:x:x:::aae3 
    Only happened on Vista. There is nothing else to update on the system and could not find solution to this. The only way to stop this is to disable IPv6 on the system which is not actually a solution.  Appreciate any help.

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that Vista sent a large number of IPv6 renew request and these cause network flood.
    There is one record of captured date, and I am not sure if the network flood is caused by duplicate or useless renew requests.
    If IPv6 is used on your network, and you have configured clients to obtain IPv6 address from DHCP server, I recommend you to extend the time settings of IPv6 scope, or add another DHCP server to share the workloads.
    Best Regards,
    Eve Wang

  • Read and Write files in Windows Vista

    Im trying to make an AIR application that reads a file from
    the users document directory and then try to save it again when
    user have made the changes. It works fine on my mac, but when i try
    it on windows vista im getting the error code #3003 "File or
    directory doesnt exist", but it really DO exist. What am i doing
    wrong.. is there some security issues that i have missed? i have
    tryed with applicationStorageDirectory aswell and
    applicationDirectory, but nothing works. Very greatful for some
    advice on what im doing wrong.
    /Andreas
    _sellerFile = File.documentsDirectory ;
    _sellerFile =
    _sellerFile.resolvePath("faktura/data/seller.xml");
    var stream = new FileStream();
    try
    stream.open(_sellerFile , FileMode.READ);
    var xml = XML(stream.readUTFBytes(stream.bytesAvailable));
    stream.close();
    seller = XMLParser.parseSeller(xml, this);
    displaySeller();
    catch(e:Error)
    errorMessage("Varning!", e.getStackTrace() + ", url: " +
    _sellerFile.url + ", path: " + _sellerFile.nativePath, "show");

    Are you seeing any issues when you open the file in a text
    editor? May be it is worth to take a look at permissions for the
    file for your vista user and the ownership of the file (properties
    -> Security). According to the documentation FileStream.open
    will throw error if there is no read permission on the file. Hope
    it's a physical file and not a link to any virtual store location.
    In the worst case, rename the existing file, manually create a text
    file and copy contents from original file to the new one and try.
    Good luck :)

  • Automatic Install of Endpoint Protection fails on windows 8.1 clients with SCCM 2012 R2

    Running SCCM 2012 R2 and deploying CM clients and Endpoint Protection via software updates. CM client and EP install fine on Windows 7 clients. CM client installs fine but endpoint protection fails on Windows 8.1 clients with the following from the
    endpoint protection agent log:
    <![LOG[Create Process Command line: "C:\Windows\ccmsetup\SCEPInstall.exe" /s /q /policy "C:\Windows\CCM\EPAMPolicy.xml".]LOG]!><time="12:22:02.560+240" date="08-13-2014" component="EndpointProtectionAgent"

    Description=Cannot complete the System Center Endpoint Protection installation. An error has prevented the System Center Endpoint Protection setup wizard from completing successfully. Please restart your computer and try again. Error code:0x80070643. Fatal
    error during installation.
    So on the win8.1 client I run the above command line manually in a command window and receive Access is denied. Then I run the same command in an elevated command window and EP installs fine. Does this have something to do with why the automatic
    EP client install fails with the 0x80070643 error code? If so, what is the fix?

  • ITunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system.  Get error msg saying C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114..

    iTunes no longer works on my Windows VISTA system.  Get error msg saying an application is attempting to access C runtime library incorrectly... Error 7, Windows error 1114.  Same msg, or one that says unable to install, when trying to update or reinstall iTunes.  iTunes worked well up until about a month ago when this error msg starting appearing.

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an erro

    When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Internal Error 2739" I have used the cleanup script included in Adobe Photoshop CS3 installer, and have removed all traces of Adobe apps including the beta versions and Acrobat 8 pro, and I still get the same error, how can I install this application? is there any way or do I have to reformat and reinstall windows?

    Hello everyone,
    I was having the same issue:
    "Setup Error. Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Quit."
    If you receive this error also, press Quit and follow these steps:
    1. Start
    2. Control Panel
    3. Administrative tools (in classical view)
    4. Event Viewer
    5. Application
    You will see something like this:
    Double-Click for error (emphasized by red color). I have an error like this:
    "Error 1327.Invalid Drive: E:\" if you have the same or e.g. Drive F:\ ir whatever letter, you should solve this problem extremely easy - just insert USB-flash into computer (it will launch as E\ or whatever disk) and than run installation again. It will work than.
    Setup doesnt start if disk is offline.

  • Adobe CS5 Updates fails !!!  There was an error downloading this update HELP

    Adobe CS5 Updates fails !!!  There was an error downloading this update HELP (Windows)

    I have the same problem, but I'm on a mac 10.9. I have 2 folders inside the Adobe Patch folder inside the Adobe folder. The items have a bunch of letters and numbers.
    I've attempted 2 downloads, each going through almost the whole process and stopping about 90% saying unable to install, fix the problems listed below (there was an error downloading this update, please quit and try again later). When I click on the consumer support for further assistance, it takes me to an Adobe page that says “This serial number is not for a qualifying product. Please try another” .  I have CS4  design premium, CS5 design standard, and Acrobat Professional installed.
    Thanks

  • I cannot sync to itunes on my computer (Windows Vista 32 bit) with my mini conected.

    I cannot sync to itunes on my computer (Windows Vista 32 bit) with my mini connected. What should I do?
    My Mini will not boot up. I tried holding both buttons down.  I got a "connect to itunes" message. I connected. and nothing happens.

    Hello there Chess-ster,
    If I understand correctly your iPad mini is not being recognized in iTunes on your Windows Vista PC. I would recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Start with these steps and work your way down as needed:
    Restart
    Turn off your computer and your iOS device, then turn them on again.
    Update your computer
    Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
    Update iTunes
    Check that you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer.
    Check the USB cable
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • Using Abode Reader 11.0.6 in Windows XP, I get an error message saying "Prop Res DLL not loaded"

    When using Abobe Reader 11.0.6 in Windows XP, I get an error message saying "Prop Res DLL not loaded" when I try to print anything.

    Wow, what an ordeal.  First tried running the cleaner, then
    re-installing 11.0.6 -- didn't work (and that was after several attempts
    at reinstalling the Lexmark printer drivers and associated utilities,
    which didn't help either).
    Then tried a system restore to last week, when the print was working OK.
    -- Didn't fix it.
    Then tried cleaning and restoring 11.0.6 -- didn't work.
    Then tried cleaning and restoring to version 10.  Now printing works
    fine and system seems back to normal.
    Apparently, 11.0.6, which was working fine for a while, didn't like some
    other system update, but version 10 is not bothered by that.
    Thanks for your continued help and interest -- without your link to find
    option for installing older versions, I'd still be stuck.
