IDS Signature Updates

When I update my IDS sensors using the IDS MC 3 of my 4 sensors hang. They never restart all of the services. When I telnet to them I get the message "Error: Cannot communicate with system processes. Please contact your system admi

nistrator.". The IDS MC progress veiwer shows 100% but with errors. It's errors are :Sensor Int_IDS1: Signature Update Process

An error occurred while running the update script on the sensor named Int_IDS1. Detail = An RDEP communication error occurred during the update. Exception message = org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpRecoverableException: Error in parsing the status line from the response: unable to find line starting with "HTTP"

One sensor works fine with no problems.

I have tried upgrading the sensors individually through IDSMC and the same 3 fail with the same error message. I have tried doing it through command line and ftp and the same 3 fail. The 3 sensors that fail are 4235's and the successful sersor is a 4250 XL.

If you are not running the 'f' patch on your sensors, 4.1.4(f), you should download and install that patch. It fixes some out-of-memory on upgrade issues that are most likely the cause of your problem.

The patch location is posted in another thread.
