automatic update of clients stopped working

Operating system: Windows
Automatic client version update stopped working in recent versions (July-August 2021?).
We get an error message "File download failed" in the client.
Hansa.log:
2021-09-09 15:01:47 8.5 2021-07-30 (build 85390305)
2021-09-09 15:01:50 M4status no free slots / not same db / not same protocol
2021-09-09 15:01:52 Close database

I tried to disable protocol filtering/add application exceptions in ESET Internet security, but it did not help.
Is it a bug?

Extra note: HansaMail also failed to update automatically. However updating from an older version in oldver.bk folder succeeded.

FYI: autoupdating of clients from 8.5 2020-01-07 (build 85330538) to 8.5 2021-08-28 (build 85400028) succeeds.
updating from 8.5 2021-08-28 (build 85400018) fails

b18 of version 8.5 2021 08 28 is broken as far as i know. Should use
8.5 2021 09 26 instead


The updating fails we are aware of, removing (in HMs case) the .HA file from client root makes the update succeed

Hi, No changes should have been made that would increase client's HDB file. Please try to delete HANSA.HDB from client folder and reconnect to server and check if it will grow to 30MB again. ...
