Microsoft Forefront Server Security encountered an error while performing a scan engine update.

Asked by jjoz in Exchange Email Server, Windows 2003 Server, Server Anti-Virus

Tags: Forefront, Antigen, Exchange Server, Windows Server 2003

Hi All,

I have Exchange Server 2007 SP1 with installing Forefront Security for Exchange Server with Service Pack 1 installed wih all AV scan engine failed to update.

I'm having problem in manually updating the engine of FFSE, see the attached Error message and the script that i executed in the batch script.

Analysis:
from the Mail server, i can open http://forefrontdl.microsoft.com/server/scanengineupdate, the result is "Directory Listing Denied This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed."

I've suplied the Proxy credentials but still i cannot update it by clicking on the FFSE GUI console and the batch script

Any idea would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Do we have to uninstall the existing FFSE SP1 on the existing Windows Server 2003 before installing Forefront Security for Exchange Server with Service Pack 2 ?
