[Solved] avast is NOT updating automatically
« on: May 27, 2010, 10:41:05 PM »
What is going on?
First I notice that the virus definitions were 5 days old  :o
Now I notice that the last update attempt was in this morning?
What is going on?  :(

C'mon!
avast is "restoring" the 22th of May database? ???
Is there some GUI problem?

It won't update automatically or manually.

This is what I got one time but it had a different address the previous time:

Last encountered error: Other HTTP error (404), while trying 174.133.198.138:80//iavs5x/servers.def

avast is updating automatically in my machine.

I had one automatic update one minute ago.  ::)

maybe the problem is in the update interval of 15 minutes  :-\

I have the VPS 100529-1

I have changed to 30 minutes.
But if it is so short, avast should block "one" update, not all of them...

You're Right.  ::)

If you use the default settings on updates settings you have this problem?

Have you tried?

What are the "default" settings?

Last line in the setup.log:
Code: [Select]

The default Update, Proxy setting is Auto detect (use the IE settings), so change to No proxy if you don't already have that set and don't use a proxy.
