Problems after CSM upgrade to version 3.3.1 Service Pack 1

vciric — Fri, 21 Feb 2020 12:03:44 GMT

Hello,

After CSM upgrade to 3.3.1 SP1, automatic IPS signature updates stop working with the following message:

"Unable to communicate with locator service to retrive available files."

IEV has stopped working as well. Error message is in the attachment.

Has anyone experienced similar problem?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Vesna

Is 'www.cisco.com' resolved to a particular IP on your CSM server? You can try changing the DNS entry for www.cisco.com on the CSM server. Once the host file has been edited and saved, restart the server and try the signature update again.

CSM server uses DNS server for resolving names and proxy server for going to Internet. CSM server goes to Cisco site’s download area without any problem.

From the CSM server, are you able to go to cisco.com and manually download an IPS update sucessfully?

Yes, that always work.

Automatic IPS update has started working again since yesterday, without any reconfiguration on CSM. Do you maybe know what could be explanation for that?

The other issue still persists. After CSM was upgraded to 3.3.1 SP1, IPS Event Viewer cannot be started from CSM. The following error message appears:

"CreateProcess: .\cache\iev\bin\iev-launcher.exe

I'm not sure what fixed the IPS signature auto update issue but it's possible that there was an issue with cisco.com since no changes were made on your CSM server.

For the IEV issue, can you try un-installing and then re-installing the CSM client? If that doesn't help, then I would suggest that you open a TAC case since this may be a new issue with the 3.1.1 SP1 code.
