3504 fails update to 8.8.125

[rm760]

I have a 3504 that I have been able to update as far as 8.8.120.  Multiple attempts to update to 8.8.125 have failed.  I have tried via GUI and command line.  Consistently fails trying to expand the file downloaded from CCO.   Anyone else having this issue?  If so have you been able to overcome it.  I

I am starting to think there may be a licensing issue.  I am using RTU license.  I added (5) license to match what I had on the 2504 controller I am replacing.

[rm760 · Accepted solution]

Well the licensing appears to be the issue.  I removed the RTU licenses and the unit updated to 8.8.125.  I did notice that my RTU count of (5) put me at (6) including the one license that comes with the unit.  I have since reassigned to a total of (5).  See what happens next update.

Thanks to all for the input.

Hello, we had the same error message. For us, the firmware update worked without problems as we uploaded the image to the controller via TFTP using the CLI.
