Forticlient 5.09 stopped getting definition update

I have noticed on a handful of my Forticlient's stopped receiving virus definition updates.  The log states cannot obtain updates. Update server responded with unauthorized access.

 

Fortigate version 5.11

Forticlient version 5.09

 

I have also tried update one of the workstations to 5.2.4 and it still cant get updates.

 

Thanks

Sorry. What I meant was it shall be fixed in a further FortiClient release.

 

You are right that 5.0.11 is not available. The latest is 5.0.10 and it has this bug.

Can you run from administrative command line: update_task.exe -s fd_01 , and paste the whole output here?

Did you make changes in your profile for the client? I would look at the following in your xml syntax;

 

   <update>             <use_custom_server>0</use_custom_server>             <server></server>             <port></port>             <failoverport>0</failoverport>             <fail_over_to_fdn>1</fail_over_to_fdn>             <update_action>notify_only</update_action>             <scheduled_update>                 <enabled>0</enabled>                 <type>interval</type>                 <update_interval_in_hours>1</update_interval_in_hours>             </scheduled_update>         </update>

 

 

)  disable 1  enabled

 

Also ensure fortiguard lookups are working, if it can't find the FGS than it can't acquire the updates. Also if you using any proxies , make sure they are allowing the updates.

 

They the client asks for the update based on the list of fgs servers & needs access to these.

 

e.g

208.91.112.139 HTTP  /fdsupdate

If you unregister the  fortigate does the FClient work with gaining updates?

Yes it works when I unregister it.  So does that indicate a issue with the Fortigate firewall?

emnoc
Esteemed Contributor III

yes

 

So is the FW active with a subscription license? And is updated?

 

Please run diag debug app update -1 and then execute update-av

 

Does this fail? Is the source-ip good ?

I entered those commands on the fortigate and nothing happens

 

The unit is up to date with Fortiguard subscriptions
