Update failed, unable to upgrade to 4.1

I tried to install pre-upgrade-from-ESX4.0-to-4.1.0-0.0.260247-release.zip, but the update failed because / var/log being full. After a reboot and clean/var/log, I tried to reinstall pre-upgrade-from-ESX4.0-to-4.1.0-0.0.260247-release.zip

I get

Host was not been updated, no change not required.

Jump newsletter ESX410-GA-esxupdate; It is installed or outdated.

But when I try to apply the upgrade, I get the following error:

Encountered error MetadataFormatError:

The error data are:

Filename - no

Message - two copies of the bulletin ESX410-GA-esxupdate definitions with

unmatched attributes.

Errno - 5

Description - the format of the metadata is invalid.

Summer research a bit in these forums and found a suggestion to rename bulletins.zip, but that has not worked for me.

Any other suggestions?

-KJ

As mentioned Sukumar, you can solve this problem by renaming bulletis.zip. Here are the steps to rename the file etc/vmware/esxupdate/bulletins.zip on the ESX host:

  1. Run/etc/vmware/esxupdate cd.

  2. Run bulletins.old bulletins.zip mv.

  3. Apply the upgrade package by running:

now to proceed with the upgrade by using the "upgrade-from-ESX4.0-to-4.1.0-0.0.260247-release.zip" bundle upgrade

  • Something (update may have failed) preventing the upgrade to 8.1

    Hi all. Looking for help with my problem!

    I have an ASUS PC with Windows 8.

    I have been automatically updated to 8.1 when it came out, but problems with her has made my laptop unusable so I handed over to 8 and weeded the updates that force the upgrade to 8.1 and prevented.

    I like go to 10, but to upgrade to 8.1 firstly, apparently.

    To do this, I was informed by the 8.1 download page to install a few missing updates. I went to the updates and everything except a properly installed update.

    The update that didn't settle was KB2920189. I searched for help and found that a lot of people had this problem, but all seemed to speak to install on servers etc. (also sounded as if it was an update from 2014, so I don't know why he didn't score himself before, I regularly check updates.) The advice given causing a dangerous boot or something and advised to not to do this unless you know what you're doing. I did not, so I didn't feel uncomfortable following this Council!

    The only thing I could think was to hide the update, I did. Download 8.1, then worked, but the installation failed. I guess it's because of the update failed, but I'm not 100% sure.

    Can someone help me understand what is happening? All I want to do is get to 10 Windows!

    With many thanks in advance :)

  • Windows Update failed - error 0 x 80070643 for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 4 (KB2463332)

    Original title: Windows Update Failed - need help

    Vista 32 Ultimate with all updates, until this one: update Windows failed: error 0 x 80070643 for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 4 (KB2463332). Update has failed repeatedly.  I tried to restart, remove the update (even by deleting the file so it would download it again) and install again.  Nothing has worked.  Error 80070643.  Since it is not Office 2003, the error seems to mean a problem with the Windows .NET framework.  Don't know what that means.

    Looking at KB976982, I tried to fix MSI software update registration corruption issues (whatever that means) by running the automated Fix It by KB971187. Restarted, I tried Windows Update again.  Still didn't update.

    Then, I waited two days and tried again.  Even that did not help.

    I tried bypassing Windows Update simply by downloading and then run the file SQLEXPR32.exe from Microsoft downloads. Did not work at all. I then tried to run it as an administrator (even if it was already an administrator account, with no other account on this computer at all).  He started to run and then gave me the following error message: unable to run the SQL Server System Configuration Checker due configulation WMI on the computer.  Error: 70347 (0x112cb).

    Now I'm really confused.  On the one hand, 80070643 means I probably repair the .NET framework, which certainly, I hate to do because I need several versions of the .NET framework first uninstall and then try to install the compmonents, and I'm afraid something would go wrong.

    On the other hand, the 70347 (0x112cb) error message seems to indicate the problem is completely different and has to do with WMI, which probably has to do with permissions and I have no idea how to solve this problem.  (And why it all of a sudden would be any problem with permissions?)  This computer is not on a corporate network and has only one user account, the administrative account).  I have looked at Services and Applications in computer management, where there are WMI control, but nothing shown that I can possibly change and not the SQL Server Configuration Manager under it, which doesn't seem to have much either.

    Help!  Please...

    And now I also tried to fix it, just in case where, the .NET framework (Panel > programs and features > Microsift.NET framework Client profile 4 > uninstall/change > fix it), and the Windows Update tried again (including reboot).  Still no.  Everything I try, it is not to do nothing, pardon my language.  People smarter than me, pleasehelp!

  • XPS 13 (9343) - unable to upgrade to Windows 10 - error 0xC1900101 0 x 30018

    I have a brand new 13 XPS, 9343 model with i7 processor and 512 GB SSD. I'm still within the period of 14 days, and I'm now seriously returning. I've never known such a load of nonsense trying to install any other piece of software.

    So far, and after many attempts, I was completely unable to upgrade to Windows 10. The first thing I did was to install all the Windows updates available for 8.1 (there were 79 of them), and immediately after that I started the saga to install Win10. Nothing else has been done to the laptop - no questionable software or USB devices (except the USB boot if necessary). It is in a State of cleanliness.

    -After the download via Windows Update, the installation procedure is INCREDIBLY slow (for example, it takes 36 HOURS to reach 42% completion - and at this point, it hits the error message). What the heck can he do?

    -J' also tried to create a bootable USB drive via the media creation tool. If I boot from the USB key and perform a "clean" installation, it works perfectly: it takes about 8 minutes total (which highlights how ridiculous the 36 hours). However, because it is a clean installation and not an 'upgrade', I find myself with a non-activated version of Windows 10 and I am asked to pay £99.99, I don't intend to do. I paid for the laptop on the understanding, he would get a FREE upgrade to Win10!

    -J' also tried using the USB key (but not the start of it) to perform the upgrade in place - this strikes the same mistake as Windows Update (and taking so long)

    -J' tried to uninstall all antivirus software, and disable all wireless/bluetooth devices before performing the upgrade - nothing of this aid. Because need me 36 HOURS per attempt, it is really not acceptable to try disabling things randomly in the vain hope that it might work correctly.

    When trying to upgrade (i.e. not), I hit an error message "Windows Setup cannot set up Windows on your hardware" or similar. During the recovery after the failure, tool configuration gives the 0xC1900101 error code 0 x 30018 and says it failed in operation 'FIRST_BOOT', the phase SYSPREP. Just make this error message cost me 36 hours of waiting (welcome to the future!), then it would be really helpful if someone could give me a definitive answer on what makes...

    Help, please! Auuughhh

  • Updates failed after the new HD install

    I live in South Africa and use a MacBook Pro bought in the USA by the end of 2014. When I had to replace the HD in December 2015 the company is certified local Apple had to order the HD of the USA. After installing it, they restored my software and data files and mails in Mail.

    Since the replacement of HD that I was not able to install updates because after that I give permission to update, I get a notice that no update is available under "this Apple ID" or something to that effect. After 8 months of updates failed my HD is slow again with my computer freezing temporarily and the color wheel - wait please turn from time to time. What should I do to allow updates succeed?

    It seems that an another Apple ID that yours has been used when the HD has been replaced.

    -Backup your data on an external drive

    -Start the recovery of the Internet

    On OS X Recovery - Apple Support

    by pressing Command + Option + R at the start of the OS X Internet Recovery*.

    If start you only on the recovery partition, you may have same problem

    then format the boot disk and install OSX. During the installation of recovery of the Internet, the version of Mac OS x installed is what came initially with the Mac. For example, you may need to update/upgrade via the Mac App Store

    This is the Office Mac Pro forum. I asked that your post moved to the forum of laptop MacBook Pro or another appropriate forum.

  • Firefox 31 update fails

    There is nothing different, but FF started again and the update succeeded. This is after more than a dozen attempts.

    Automatic update fails, but gives no reason. Tried a manual update (Firefox Setup 31.0.exe) and it does not work? I tried running in administrator mode and nothing seems to happen (?) ...

    When I click on '?' (help) / about and the updated... application message continues to turn and run for a LONG time, and then prompt to restart. I do, and you receive error message that the partial update cannot be applied... He will try an update complete. It loads and executes the full update and then displays a message "update Application" without end. After several minutes of nothing happens, I x'd out and I'm still on exit 30, with the message to reboot again.

    Running Windows 8.1

    To date, Firefox continues to the failure of the upgrade to version 31. I'll try to manually disable all my Add-ons and see if that helps. Well, it did work.

    Tried running FF in "safe mode"... It also did not work.

    I noticed that when asked to "restart FF", the tabs looked a little weird... square is the only way to describe it. The upper right minimize output window icons were also "cut in half". Very weird.

    Another problem. In my download directory, I have now three executable files that I can NOT REMOVE. Says they are in use by another program. Looked at the running processes to all and do not plant anything that it is focused on running FF. Tried rebooting the PC did not run FF and still cannot delete
    The installer of Firefox 31.0.exe
    Firefox Setup Stub 31.0.exe
    Firefox_Setup_31.0.exe (this installer downloaded from cnet).

    From now I use Chrome since I don't know what is happening with FF. I'll check back every day to see if there is a solution. I have not tried to uninstall FF and then re - install. I understand that I should be able to save all my settings, so I could try in a week if I don't see a solution.

    Do not know how to 'close' my problem, so I answer to myself. Updated at 31 and next. Don't know why, but my problem was apparently solved.

  • Bootcamp update fails after El capitan (please help me alone!)

    Hello

    I think I have the same problem postedBootcamp update fails after Yosemite (please help me alone!)

    But like the other user, I'm a little scared, and I don't want to lose my Bootcamp partition.

    That's why I ask you to help for solitaire (thank you much in advance).

    I upgraded my MacBook Pro 13 "(mi-2010) at El Capitan 10.11.5."

    Then I noticed that I could not find Bootcamp.

    Regarding the other question, the score was still there, but now under the name "disk0s4".

    I used Testdisk, following the advice, and I discovered the missing partion and data (I could make a copy)

    Now, I would be sure to make the right steps to retrieve the situation.

    Here is the output of Testdisk

    The partition does highlight is the right one, here's where I found my data.

    Now, what I'm supposed to do is follow the same steps that I read in the old post with 508484288 to step 7 and + 468284272 in step 8, in this way:

    GPT4 to rebuild using start/end offsets

    1. Sudo gdisk/dev/rdisk0
    2. P (print the complete list of parts)
    3. D (delete)
    4. 4 (part 4)
    5. N (new part)
    6. 4 (part 4)
    7. 508484288 (-start offset in the sectors or the starting point for the Bootcamp part)
    8. + 468284272 (-size offset, rather than the end offset)
    9. 0700 (part of Windows type)
    10. P (list of all parties just to see what changes will be)
    11. W (Write the new GPT)
    12. Y (Yes! really write the new GPT)

    And then I need to rebuild the MBR (as the old post)

    1. Sudo gdisk/dev/rdisk0
    2. P (print from parts list)
    3. R (Recover)
    4. O (current MBR hybrid in block letters)
    5. H (chooses hybrid)
    6. Partitioning numbers be hybridized: 2 3 4
    7. Y (good for the GRUB question)
    8. (Indicator boot part 2) N
    9. N (part 3-flag of boot)
    10. Y (boot indicator part 4 make the bootable NTFS partition)
    11. O (current MBR hybrid in block letters)
    12. W (Write new MBR)
    13. Y (yes! write the new MBR)
    14. Reset

    I'm sure I'm in the right direction, but...

    Many thanks for any help

    Excellent work. The two sets of Gdisk steps are correct. If you are on El Capitan, these two sets of measures Gdisk will fail because of the Protection of the integrity of system being activated. Please disable SIP.

    1. boot in local restoration (command-R).

    2. start utility-> Terminal.

    3. type csrutil disable in the Terminal, and then press enter/return.

    4. type csrutil State.

    5 start normally, then type csrutil status to confirm that all of the individual entries are still disabled.

  • Auto. updates fail to install. but Firefox tells me I have the latest version.

  • How to pass a message to update failed

    For some time, Firefox was unable to update in the background and gave messages to update failed (specific) every time the updates came. I solved this by downloading the full installation file and do a manual update.

    This time, I also had a message that failed (apparently incorrect) update, after a manual update, then again after a reboot, then again after an uninstall and reinstall, even if the troubleshooting information page shows that I am under v22.0 (see details below).

    It sounds like an obscure registry problem, but if the message is correct, how to fix it. If this is not the case, turn off?

    The browser is Firefox v22 (updated to v21) and I am running Windows 7 Professional.

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    Please report back to see if this helped you!
