letter "a" will be after update and restart OS

WXP Sp3, KIS v11.0.0.232 TR Final Spanish
Hp computer

WXP Sp3, KIS v11.0.0.232 TR Final Spanish
Vmware Virtual machine

Updated to patch "a". Update = 12,4 mb aprox.

After patch updated, KIS2011 asked me to restart, I answer yes, but the system didn't restart automatically, Reboot manually.
I review: is a "service" restart only, not a O.S. restart . But then don´t appears the "a", restarting the os appears the "a"

Update databases manually, bases of 28/05/2010, show Obsolete bases message (I think normal beta server databases (old databases)).
Switch back to standard update servers after applying the patch and update without problem, now say updated.


Regards

Windows 7 Ultimate x64 + KIS2010 11.0.0.232 (Spanish).

1.- After patch updated from testing server, KIS2011 asked me to restart, I answered yes, but the system didn't restart automatically, I have had it manually.

2.- After reboot the system, still Obsolete bases message ... I've updated manullay, and the same, don't know if is becasue bases are from 28/05/2010.

Regards.

After update product requires a restart of the service this way:

Restart the OS is not necessary. After installing the patch, you can return to the release server updates.

I see and understand, but if KIS2011 are asking You to restart the service and Your answer is Yes ... I didn't saw a restart of the service ...

Maybe better not to ask, and only show the message that You can reboot the system manually or later ...

Regards.

Tried in my other system W7 x86 and the Kaspersky service restarted with no problems ...

Regards.

letter "a" will be after update and restart OS

my laptop freeze at 99%, need manual reboot. Turn on default update server, and it's ok.

KIS 11.0.0.232, Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Updated from http://dnl-test.kaspersky-labs.com/test/ap/. Update size was 14.4 MB

1. Service part of application restarted OK. It means patches can be applied without restart. Good work KL!
2. Several known problems related to Application Control and Application Activity are still there, especially connected to internet.
3. Update obsolete solved. It seems that KIS suppresses the popup (instead of solving the exact problem) because it appears for short time and then KIS shows everything is OK.
4. Web AV still tries to show URL (which is incomplete) instead of threat detected. It was much better in KIS 2010.

Agree ...

Problems with Exclusions ... I added exclusions and if I click on "Fix It now" stills remains asking to add and never turns into green ...

Aplication Control window still takes so long to open ...

Regards.

W7 Ultimate 32 - Bit
KIS 2011 ver. 11.0.0.232

My system freeze after patch updated * Reboot manually *
After reboot the system,still Obsolete bases message * Updated manually,the same * ( Patch "a" are from 28/05/2010 )


I agree.


I agree.

Regards.

FoxKas:

To back to standard servers updates, try to update 1st from ftp://ftp.kaspersky.com, once update finished from there, then change to: Kaspersky Labs update servers ...

Regards.

No problems so far with this patch.

But it still doesn't solve some of the most annoying and confusing bugs:
1.) unable to work with any "list view" cause opening lasts a long time
2.) Hips Database seems to have still some errors (Igor Pavlov author of Firefox etc.)

Any prospects to fix it before a mass release?

Kis 2011 232 (a) en - Windows 7x86

I updated to patch a, rebooted (manually), switch back to standard update servers, update manually but kis show Obsolete bases again.


EDIT: ok, i resolved switching update servers to ftp://ftp.kaspersky.com/ ( thanks harlan).

No problems with the patch on Win7 64bit.

Read post 12 to back to standard servers.

Regards.

But none of this could be done automatically???Thank you very much harlan4096.


Happened to me.

Regards.

Win 7 x64

So far no issues, updated and rebooted service without problem.
I changed the server to ftp://ftp.kaspersky.com and updated afterwards, again no problems.

Win 7, x32, x64

Nothing to report out of the ordinary so far.
Did not see any issues with updating - unloading of process as mentioned for others.

No problems with the patch here, however I haven't really seen those issues which were fixed (although I can't know if I've got some of those crashes).

Problem with long opening Aplication Control will be fix in CF1.

Thanks for the feedback

Regards.

Did you play with the Widget at all?
Seems loading of the sanbox via the right side of the widget will load, but after it is closed and reopened, whilst doing a lot of mouse clicking/functions - with a ps/2 plugged mouse, the window for sandbox has trouble loading.

It didn't load until I selected KIS in the main menu again? Do you want some reference/traces if I can?

Thanks

Thanx for feedback!
Timeschedule already available?

Do we need to reinstall before this patch?
I for example have an "old" patch "a".

yes, same here. we need to apply again this (new?) "patch a"

regards

Just install the new patch "a" over the existing patch a. On my computer it worked perfectly. Restart is required.

KAV 11.0.0.232, Vista Home Premium x64 SP2 - patch downloads and installs successfully. after reboot as instructed application version has an "a" after it. After resetting to default update servers, product is updating fine. no errors or definition warnings.

Patch installed successfully.
It´s working fine without any problem.

i did it, and all seems to be work correctly

Thanks for the feedback.
When will be released???

Regards.

Patch 'a' installed.
It is working fine.

Regards

Patch a installed fine (W7 Ultimate 32 Bit). So far no problems, but will post problems if I find one (just installed Patch a).

Update "a" installed smoothly. 232a appears only after manual reboot. There are no visible changes, but number 232a

i installed the patch from a fresh KIS installation!!
first update freezed my system while it was 99% so i reinstalled KIS and then update completed!
no problems so far

Updated my KIS to patch "a" on Win7 x64, no problems so far.

Win 7 Ultimate 32 - Bit

I agree the same happened to me
First update ( patch "a" ) freezed my system while it was 99%

Regards.

For reference since patching -

Hostsman reply in 3rd party software issues -
http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showt...t&p=1378416
Widget/Self-defense issue also here -
http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showt...t&p=1378409

No issues here so far caused by the patch (2 Windows XP SP3 machines).

Installed patch a on my Win7 x64. So far it is OK, but problems I described here are still present:

http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showt...4850&st=160

see posts 171-175, and 178.

In short: I have dual boot with 2 Win7 x64 installations - one is for normal use, another one for testing etc. When I run scan from my system which I generally use (c:) on partition D: which contains my test system, KIS detects multiple threats: hidden object multi generic (see picture). For details please see posts mentioned above, traces are also in post 178 above!

I hope this will also be fixed in CF1!

I had the same problem with first update freezing at 99% after install. I did a full uninstall and reinstall, then updated to patch a.

Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit
Installed Patch A about 10MB, no problems, was not asked to reboot after Update, did a manual reboot, no problems, changed back to default download, did another update... no problems so far.

As you download the patch "a", can not find it, thanks

It's right up in the important topics:
http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showtopic=171870
please note that it is under testing and it may occur some bugs
also read from here post #5 how to change the update servers and switch back after the apply of patch!

Please upload updater log.
Do you update from http://dnl-test.kaspersky-labs.com/test/ap/ or http://dnl-01.geo.kaspersky.com/ ?

Without patch "a" problem not reproduce?

i don't have the update log cause i uninstalled KIS!
anyway, to understand what happened here is what i did exactly:
1)uninstalled KIS 2011 build 232(with the previous patch a installed)
2)restarted the pc
3)installed KIS 2011 build 232
4)updated from regular servers
5)restarted the pc
6)updated from http://dnl-test.kaspersky-labs.com/test/ap/
7)at 99% system froze
8)reset the pc
9)uninstalled again KIS cause i thought it was a bad installation problem
10)restarted the pc
then i repeated steps from 3-6 and update completed
15)restarted the pc for the (a) letter to show up
16)updated from regular servers as per instructions
17)restarted again and now it is working fine!
note: all uninstallations were done with kavremvr 1.0.125

If you want i can try to reinstall a few times KIS with the same steps to see if the problem will reoccur again!!

Where is the update log located? I am running Windows 7 x64 Ultimate. I looked under C:\Program Data\Kaspersky Lab but couldn't find anything there.

Initial test with a fresh installer in Win 7 x 64 would suggest so, the software is more responsive though the installation and update...
...including the update bar of Hostsman being green again, not red as is the case with patch 'a' installed.
However I think more testing is needed to make it conclusive.
The application rules are still not working correctly, the same 2 prompts for the installer and the software alert
yet they both are still in low trusted after, so it maybe just highlighting the problem with patch 'a' installed, not creating a new problem.
