Streaming Updates not connected...
« on: February 26, 2012, 01:14:46 AM »
my streaming "cloud" updates have been working fine on avast 7 until just a few moments ago.  now it is saying "not connected".  is this a server malfunction on avast's end? or do i need to re-install avast free.  i am running windows 7 home premium.

I've been meaning to ask something related (I may have overlooked it being asked before, if so I apologize).  Is the local avast program *supposed* to maintain a *truly* persistent connection to the avast cloud?  Say the user's system is idling.  They aren't running some new program, opening some new file, visiting some new URL, etc.  Lets assume assume the system just received the latest streaming update.  Will the local avast program maintain a persistent TCP connection to the avast cloud when there is (that I can think of, feel free to correct) nothing to do for awhile?

i haven't received any streaming updates now for a few hours.  it's connected, but no streaming updates.  all i have is --- where an update should be.  is there something wrong with my installation? or are there just no streaming updates currently?

Easy. The infraestructure is rising little by little. We will see up to 20 updates a day when it is ready. Right now, easy.

I was forced to reinstall Avast 7,

But for the last 48 hours, the cloud protection is enabled  as well as file reputation.  I got my four-hour definition updates, but have yet to receive any cloud updates.

Thanks Tech.  We will just have to wait I guess.

I get my last two days not connected when I installed recently was fine.

 It's a server problem or I have to reinstall Avast?

It's not the servers, at least not now.  See http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=94249.msg751031#msg751031.

Try a Windows restart.  Sometimes that helps.

I received several today.  When the standard VPS updated from 120226-2 to 120226-3, the C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast5\defs\12022602_stream directory was removed by Avast and the "Latest update received" now shows --- again, until the next streaming update comes.

I just received a streaming update for 120226-3, received one for 120226-2 today as well. Looks like the systems are getting phase  :)
