Re: [Declude.Virus] F-Prot Update Problems
Hi, I am running F-Prot 3.15a (this was also happening with 3.15). When I installed I also installed the Scheduler and Updater. Now the Scheduler is running as a service and has been told to update the definitions every 4 hours. This works a lot of the time but sporadically the Updater ends up with an error message on the screen that I was not able to reach the Internet and it is waiting for a click. At this point no more Updates are run until you click (not good). [] I haven't seen that problem in my server. Occasionally I see it in my personal pc that runs f-prot, but when I double check I just realize that I actually don't have an internet connection. Perhaps it is a problem with your network card that is sporadically down, or your internet is not being very stable lately. Nope, I have *seen* this problem happen on my mailserver, while I was doing some maintenance unrelated to this problem. The server is 100% of the time connected to the internet and was sending/receiving mail at the time. However, right after the click I restarted the update manually and noticed it got an update. So MAYBE there is a problem with the update routine when the servers are in the process of being updated themselves and don't accept connections, or something like it. Hmmm I think I'll CC this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Groetjes, Bonno Bloksma --- [E-mail scanned at tio.nl for viruses by Declude Virus] --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.Virus mailing list.

Re: [Declude.Virus] F-Prot Update Problems
These kinds of problems are why we went with a scheduled FTP process instead of using F-Prot's updater. Works flawlessly. There are a couple of examples on Declude's tools/utilities page. We went with the simplest one.

Now I am not sure if it was the updater batch file of if the scheduler was creating the problem. When I was running the batch file (via Windows Task Scheduler) I had tried to disable the scheduler but it always seemed to want to run even if I told it not to run on startup. For you folks out there using the 3.15(a) version are you seeing the same problems or not? Any help on this would be appreciated.

RE: [Declude.Virus] F-Prot Update Problems
Are you scheduling updates on the hour or at a few minutes after ? Try setting the scheduler for x minutes after the hour to avoid the heavier traffic.

RE: [Declude.Virus] F-Prot Update Problems
I think mine is scheduled at 37 minutes after the hour. I saw that comment on the Frisk site.
