@umesh post:106

V581 fixes issue where users stuck on a base and were not able to update further.
We resumed updates for few hours today and then paused. Hopefully from tomorrow we will be able to resume without pause.

Thanks

Hi 3xist ,

Unfortunately the previous (merged) thread was locked too quickly

The question is for those who are using Firewall only.
Will the update “from withing” download unneeded AV database or such update will just change the version…
or
it’s better to wait resuming the DB update so that would not break the Firewall functionality

I’m kinda not in a mood to go through complete reinstall of perfectly functioning Firewall if something are expected to go “wrong way” due to AV issues I’m not interested in.

Thanks in advance

Hi Guys,

Unfortunately that 's the same old story again.

I got the update notification and the “see details” brought me to the release page where eventually the are release notes for .579 ???

Then it was usual search for the Ultimate Truth

Finally, as far as I understand the changes .581 are about AV only (is that so?)
and I am not using AV part

It seems that this annoying thing will not be changed in v3 … but please
make the changes in version 4 so the installer checks the components chosen by the user.
I do understand that in some cases only the version has to be changed …

My regards

This update V581, just has binary update of 1MB+ and does not bring an AV updates as such.
So feel free to update to V581 even if you use Firewall only.

In CIS V4, firewall users will not be affected in case we ever issue AV bases update. Although binary update, even though caused due to AV issues will always be common and user is advised to always keep latest version.

So we are making sure that in CIS V4, firewall users are not bothered for any AV bases update.

Thanks

Hi;

It’s not clear, so please:

Does this update fixes the issue of different SHA-1’s for the same DB (various machines comparison), posted at v579 topic by “commanding the celsius” (« Reply #78 on: January 03, 2010, 04:33:04 PM », https://forums.comodo.com/feedbackcommentsannouncementsnews-cis/comodo-internet-security-313125662579-released-with-new-av-basescav-t49122.0.html;msg354620#msg354620)???

Thank’s for the update! I’ll do it as soon as it seems stable/not-risky… (cannot even think stopping my works right now)

[who_te_fuc]

Just updates to version 3.13.126709.581 no issues so far… :-TU Except that the AV-updates still seems down…

Just a side note, I wasn’t the first to report this… AFAIK pt1158 was, with the posts here. :-TU

Hi

I have upgraded to *.581 build (full CIS) but cannot update past 3468 (although 3490 is shown on “… latest additions” page. Do I need to replace bases.cav manually or is there a problem with the updates server currently?

Edit: Btw, on another computer yesterday evening, I installed *.581 from scratch but couldn’t update at all (stuck on update 1) saying I had the latest version.

[Black_Star]

I have two questions: this version is tested for errors and whether the Comodo testers that tell developers about bug reports? Just shake one version over another is very expensive and I would like to have a stable product, not its raw version.

[evil_religion]

@umesh: When will the issue get solved that AV database’s MD5 and size differs for some users?
That’s a state that shouldn’t be, I’m anxious it is leading to aberrant detections.

Thanks in advance.
