Hi All,

 

We have got rm cc4 have recently core upgrading one of our laptops and it has come up with Update Failed and it does not allow anyone to login anymore it does not have the login options. IN RMMC you can see the update has got so far and just stopped and does not seem to be going any further.

 

Does anyone know of a way that we can get this laptop to either carry on the update or get us to the login screen?

When this happens and it specifies update failed with no logon options I have always rebuilt. I know in certain scenarios you can copy the core update to the workstation and run it manually but obviously you need to be able to login to do that.

If you disable one of the services, LogonUI I think it is, you can then reveal the login screen again and then log in to try a manual upgrade / fix on whatever is broken.

The normal Windows 7 login screen is there, just you can't see it. The cursor should be focused on the username field so you can enter that, tab to the password field, press enter and wait, should log you in, you can then manually run the RM Core Upgrade, alternatively just rebuild!

We had that recently with a couple of machines in the latest batch of updates, and a rebuild kicked it through and installed the updates. I tend to do the updates in rooms/trolleys, so a maximum of 31 if we do an IT suite, or 16 if we do a trolley.

 

It seems that machines where you haven't updated for a long time are more likely to fall over when doing it (so the machines are the ones that we didn't get around to rebuilding last summer, so haven't been rebuilt since they were originally built probably around 3 years ago unless they have failed for what ever reason.

Sorry to necro post but having the same issue. Out of 8 systems I have updated so far 6 of them have failed like this. Can get logged into them but cannot see where the core update is located on the server to try and manually copy it over and install it.

 

RMMC is also pretty useless as it is showing that they are still in progress despite them having been sat with the update failed message on screen all day.

We had the same issue, after disabling the LogonUI services we then followed tech article TEC4523113 and this worked for us.

 

Brill' thanks. Will take a look at that tomorrow. I really don't wont to have to rebuild all these machines.

Had pretty much a 100% failure rate.

 

I've found that there are a lot of things that cause core updates to fail.

 

#1: If you've ever used a tool to clean user profiles off a PC, it's pretty much guaranteed to fail.

#2: If you've ever installed\reinstalled Internet Explorer or Java, it's pretty much guaranteed to fail.

 

It's left me only with the option of doing full rebuilds now every time there is even a minor issue.

 

It also doesn't help much when every ticket I open with RM support ends up with the suggestion to either 'Core Upgrade ALL of your PCs' or simply 'Rebuild ALL of your PCs'.

Had some failing - due to "RM Add Local User Group".

This meant we had to manually assign that package prior to core upgrading. It'd show red exclamation marks, but you 'clear status' in the assignment overview and allocate again.

Either this or rebuilding.

I found manaully copying the core upgrade to the station and then running an rdp to it let me login and manage to run the update on the majoirty of the stations i tried it on.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but can someone point me to the location of the core updates for the workstations?

 

I've got a couple of rubbish "Failed Update" screens. Can rdp on and want to try and manually rerun the update to see if it fixes it.

 

Thanks

Thanks that got me in but I still am unable to push out the update or restart the pc from the console.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

You could try reinstalling the RM Serialization Helper.msi in:

C:\ProgramData\RM\Connect\RMCoreUpgrade\CC4 Components\RM Serialization Helper
