Delta Patcher Error
Isabella Kells
-> In installed update two patches with same kb was visible.
-> We created Rollback task for KB4487026 and deployed on server which uninstalled one of the KB but still duplicate KB was visible in installed update.
-> So, we re-deploy the Rollback task on same server and this time we got error code 87 and still same Kb was visible.
Correct, a KB should only be installed once per the system, regardless of how it gets installed. This looks more like a Windows issue than a BigFix issue. You might try opening a Microsoft support call on it.
Usually, looking at the list of updates would suffice but obviously, there is some issue with the patch (I see a duplicate entry when I installed the KB as well) so other checks should be used to validate the version of the system.
Thanks for your prompt response.
On further investigation we found out that for the same kB when we install cumulative update, Patch is getting installed only once but delta update is creating an issue were we are able to see duplicate entries in installed update.
As per my knowledge if last month we have installed delta or cumulative update then in current month only delta update will be applicable not the cumulative one. Please clarify if my understanding is wrong.
Query:-
1:On which scenario cumulative update will be applicable.
2: How we can confirm why cumulative update is not relevant ?
3: How to justify that last month delta update was installed and that is the reason this month only delta update will be applicable ?
Verification of the patched file failed. The XXH64 hash of the patch result file, and the file that was used as input for the delta, do not match. This can happen if the basis file changed since the signatures were calculated.
i have this error message when i try to open eft, anyone can help? i try to download file 5 times today
The error you're seeing in EFT indicates a mismatch between the patched file's hash and the original file used for the update. This can occur if the base file changed since the update was created. Try redownloading the update from the official source or contacting EFT support for assistance.
This error is also generated after a successful reprovision. In this case the error code does not indicate failure. After a reprovision the agent will start a new snapshot for the client as if it were installed for the first time. Old snapshots are disassociated with the client when an agent reprovisions. Therefore agents must rebuild its client echo from scratch when the agent rejoins the network under a new ID.
Usually an agent error code that is coerced from a server-side HTTP(s) 424 reply indicating that the client should be reprovisioned. This is typically the case when an agent is cloned during a system image and deploy scenario. Agents that assume the identity of another agent (e.g. a clone) are detected by our cloud platform backend processes and rejected. Part of that rejection is to inform the agent that it should request a new ID from the system. This is the concept of a reprovision. A new agent ID is created during the provisioning process.
Whenever a new config is received from the server, Agent internally uses this code. The current config-GUID is checked against the latest one received, if they mismatch it is considered as new config, and this error code is used. On reception of a new config, further processing is stopped and new config will be applied first. Currently, this error code may not appear in logs.
An unrecoverable error occurred attempting to read, write, open, or close the snapshot, delta, or change-list databases during a scan. The issue may be resolved by deleting the snapshot, delta, and change-list files on the client. After one scan phase the agent should repair itself.
An unrecoverable error occurred attempting to read or write to the snapshot, delta, or change-list databases during a scan. The issue may be resolved by deleting the snapshot, delta, change-list, and all manifest files on the client. The agent will automatically download new manifests and after one scan phase the agent should repair itself.
This error indicates that the agent has resolved the DNS name of the cloud endpoint but cannot establish a connection to that endpoint. One reason for this is intermittent or faulty connectivity between the client and the cloud. Also, slow or congested networks and some firewall rules may also intermittently cause this error.

This WinHTTP error causes the agent to connect to the cloud endpoint using a fallback (or backup) URI that has been previously determined and stamped into the cloud agent. This is typically the same URI that the Agent used when it was first installed on the client.
This error indicates that the agent cannot resolve the FQDN of the cloud endpoint. This often indicates a network route issue between the client and the cloud which can be attributed to no network interfaces available on the client, no connectivity to DNS servers, or a misconfigured cloud endpoint FQDN.

This error indicates that the agent has resolved the DNS name of the cloud endpoint but cannot establish a connection to that endpoint. One reason for this is that cloud endpoint URI may be incorrect or there is no network route currently available between the client and the cloud. Learn moreLearn more
This error indicates that the agent has resolved the DNS name of the cloud endpoint but cannot establish a connection to that endpoint. Possible reasons for this error include firewall configurations that actively block or disallow connections from the client to the cloud. Also, route issues that prevent TCP/IP connections from getting created between client and cloud will also generate this error. Learn moreLearn more
This error indicates that the certificate required for Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) communication is not present on the client. This issue may be resolved once the SSL certificate is installed on the client.
This error indicates that the server does not recognize the snapshot the agent has created. This error indicates a conflict with another agent on the network. This has specifically been implemented to respond not to VM or deployment machine cloning scenarios. The agent will reprovision (e.g. rejoin the Cloud Agent network), consume a new client license/key/seat, and retrieve a new ID from the server. This will also scorch (e.g. start fresh) a new client echo of the machine.
This error indicates that a configuration profile file for the agent does not yet exist on our cloud platform. This error is benign and is simply logged to indicate that the agent is operating under a default profile plan.
Rare HTTP error code (424) that might occur while delta is being uploaded to server. This error code, along with following mentioned HTTP error codes would cancel the delta upload and would log "Unrecoverable error during delta upload". Error codes:
During snapshot/delta upload this status code indicates that the agent is currently uploading snapshot/delta file fragments to the cloud. There may be one or more ERROR_IO_PENDING messages depending on the size of the snapshot/delta being uploaded. After the last file fragment has been uploaded a successful status code of 0 (zero) will get returned from this process.
During snapshot/delta processing this status code indicates that the agent is currently waiting for the cloud to finish processing the last uploaded snapshot/delta. The agent will remain in this state until the server informs the agent that it has completed its work.
To create delta file, I have used mender-convert tool to create rootfs mender update file from base raspbian os. After that, I have added a couple of small packages such as nmap and 1-2 small packages and created rootfs mender update file. Now using mender-binary-delta generator, I created delta file between both rootfs mender update files.
My question is why delta image size is 1.23GB for such a small change in rootfs update file? The entire rootfs for base image is 1,54,42,48,832 bytes and updated image is 1,58,58,98,496 bytes!
For RISCV, we are looking for seamless OTA updates, including application, rootfs and delta update. We are also working towards porting mender for RISCV and also testing mender on pi.
For RISCV whether mender-binary-delta would be provided by mender directly?
HI
I am getting following error while building mender via yocto. I have tried to change the values of variables MENDER_RESERVED_SPACE_BOOTLOADER_DATA and MENDER_PARTITION_ALIGNMENT frim local.conf but still it does not get resolved. Please check
