Auto-update of clients failed after upgrading 8.4

Last night I upgraded our 8.4 from 2018-01-26 to 2018-03-21. When logging in with a Windows client, it told me a newer version was available and that it was a required update, which is odd since the database should not have changed. When I selected to update, it then said it failed to download the update.

I checked in hansa.log and it said:

2018-05-01 09:30:59 /THREAD(19) SendBinFile Web File Not Found clients/windowsnet.ha
2018-05-01 09:30:59 /THREAD(19) Web file not found: clients/windowsnet.ha


I checked the webcust/clients folder on the server and it was empty. I then downloaded and extracted the Linux server installer, copied the updateclients folder to my server folder, copied the two .ha files to webcust/clients, and renamed them to windows.ha and macosx.ha. I was then able to auto-update my Windows client.

Why does upgrading not include these files which are required to update the clients?

Hi Yavuz The Services Cache register is stored on the server. Our customer servers are either Linux or Windows. The client OS is irrelevant. Thanks Paul...
