Client Updater Loop
-
@jmeyer That’s something that @Jbob would need to confirm.
-
@Wayne-Workman If he releases a new version that remove all old version (under 0.9.9) and upgrade the last (0.9.9), won’t it solve my problem ?
Will 0.9.7 client will download a 0.9.9+ version and clean the multiple install ?My current script remove the 3 clients (old, 0.9.7 and 0.9.9) before installing the 0.9.9.
But this is not great since it will do this in loop. -

-
@jmeyer How do you check for a newer version in a file that is the “most recent?”

@Wayne-Workman It’s set on computer startup. I can’t restart all my network like this… I fixed only a few manually.

A snapin should NOT be used to Upgrade the client. THe snapin should ONLY be used to remove the clients.
Use a GPO (or maybe a startup script) to only install a new client on the systems IF there is no client installed on them already.
-
@Tom-Elliott That’s what i was thinking. Thank you.
-
@jmeyer , the client was meant to be upgraded in a linear fashion, but with GPO mucking things up that linear upgrade path is now broken. The best approach is what Tom suggested. Use GPO to remove ALL CLIENTS completely. v0.9.7. v0.9.9, everything needs to be wiped. Then use GPO once to deploy v0.9.9, once deployed remove the GPO policy, or be very careful when you create the policy so that its a one-time only deal.

@Jbob Thank you for your help too.

I’m solving this thread as the issue involved was not caused by fog at all.
