There are numerous other topics on this:

For those of you who are are using the regular release version 7.0.1466, and the repair failed - 'Error processing packages. Please use full update.' - then this worked for me on my win7 netbook with 7.0.1466:

Then you will need to do a Manual update of VPS - avast! Virus Definitions Update - Manual Download (http://www.avast.com/download-update) VPS Update (virus definitions, vpsupd.exe, approx 67.5 MB). - Save the file to your hard disk, locate where you saved it and double click it and that should carry out the virus definitions update.

If you don't want to go through that process, then wait for the avast team to resolve it, which hopefully won't take too long.

is there really any significant danger to staying with 121003-1 until avast! fixes this?
Title: Re: Cant update
Post by: DavidR on October 04, 2012, 03:30:51 AM
Not really avast will work as normal albeit with a very slightly out of date VPS version.

so then why are people panicking so much?

people might be worried about it because when ever someone sees that red pop-up they automaticly think its a virus or virus related. not the failed update or a problem with avast themselfs

so then why are people panicking so much?

I haven't the slightest idea, some are reporting that the update is working now. But it is reporting it is up to date with VPS 121003-1, yet on my other system I have 121003-2.

I think that they have pulled the VPS 121003-2 version so the update check doesn't fail as it did before.

OK something weird is going on here :o

It seems like the update has been pushed to Virustotal avast engine and to the online scanner of avast!

It doesnt seem to be out to users...How ever, the avast! team must remove the 1201003-2 update history from avast.com/virus-update-history in order to not to confuse the users.

I just clicked on my last popup and it showed a red warning saying "The last attempt to update your virus definitions was unsuccessful. To ensure you are protected try again to    update now."  Yesterday the latest version was 121003-2 and when I did the manual update a few minutes ago the number went down to 121003-1.  I have mine set to auto-update so why isn't it working and why did the number's go down?  This makes no sense!

As I said in my earlier post Reply #7 above:

That is why it is showing 121003-1 as the latest update when you try an update check. This gives them time to find the reason for the problem in the bad VPS update without the problem 'for users' spreading as people update.

So I would expect an update later today that will fully resolve the VPS version number mismatch. But having pulled the bad VPS version, the system should be working.

I just clicked on summary, there is a green check mark and says my system is fully protected.
