Live Update Failing Continously for the past few days. There seems to be a serious problem and intermittent fixes are not going to be a long term solution. This issue needs proper introspection in my opinion.

Hmmm just got a full virus def that installed properly.  Perhaps run LiveUpdate again or switch over to full definition (switch off smart definitions).  Also, with the full defs, you are getting more protection due to the program using a more complete set of definitions.

Windows 7 SP1 64 bit (x64), Norton Internet Security 2012, Internet Explorer 9

If you see this issue, please email me this file at Tony_Weiss[at}Symantec.com:

C:\ProgramData\Norton\{0C55C096-0F1D-4F28-AAA2-85EF591126E7}\NIS_19.0.0.128\Lue\Logs

 

Do this immediately following the failure. Also, please let us know which item is failing.

 

Once you've sent me the logs, please try running LiveUpdate again, and let me know what happens. Screenshots are also very helpful for both the 1st and 2nd runs of LU. Thanks.

[ Edited ]

I've had this problem with NIS2011 18.6.0.29, I do a live update in the morning on my xp computer and Norton doesn't install everything.  but once I reboot and try again norton updates...strange.

 

 

The strange part is it did this yesterday too.
