Sample errors
- Multiple established connection failures errors indicate FortiWeb is unable to reach FDS servers to fetch updates e.g Service port 443 is not allowed in the upstream firewall/proxy:
******* 00:47:26 2024 Failed to establish connection with 149.5.232.66:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:46:22 2024 Failed to establish connection with 149.5.232.66:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:45:21 2024 Failed to establish connection with 208.184.237.68:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:44:20 2024 Failed to establish connection with 208.184.237.68:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:43:17 2024 Failed to establish connection with 173.243.138.67:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:42:16 2024 Failed to establish connection with 173.243.138.67:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:30:35 2024 Failed to establish connection with 149.5.232.66:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:29:32 2024 Failed to establish connection with 149.5.232.66:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:28:30 2024 Failed to establish connection with 173.243.138.67:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages. ******* 00:27:28 2024 Failed to establish connection with 173.243.138.67:443 when install essential/anti-virus packages.
- Indicates Internet connection error e.g initial TCP connection to FortiGuard server failed:
******* 10:01:50 2024 update network error:failed to connect servers.
- There would be response/connection failures from FortiGuard server but FortiWeb will actively tries the next FortiGuard server:
******* 09:39:17 2025 update network error:failed receiving setup response. ******* 00:07:13 2025 update network error:failed receiving setup response. ******* 09:36:55 2025 update network error:failed receiving setup response. ******* 09:34:07 2025 update network error:failed receiving setup response.
Verify connectivity: Connecting to FortiGuard services
Note:
If MITM SSL inspection is performed on FortiWeb to Internet traffic, FortiGuard updates might fail.
If the issue persists after traffic is allowed for FortiWeb to contact FortiGuard servers, follow the below article for TAC assistance: Troubleshooting Tip: Unable to connect to FDS-servers
