Question

AUSST fresh synchronization - server not responding ...

Hello. We have just subscribed a number of people to CCT. I have created the necessary packages successfully. Now, I am in the process of setting up AUSST for the first time. I have tried on both a Windows Server 2003 SP3 and Windows Server 2008R2 server with the same results. It gets to a certain point and then seems to timeout. See command prompt text below.

Is this simply network conjestion somewhere and I just have to keep trying until I jag it sometime? We have a 10Mb Fibre connection and I am doing it at a quiet time of the evening. Therefore, I don't think its my end.

Any other ideas?

Here is a copy of the command prompt:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.BW\My Documents\Downloads\AUSST>AdobeUpdateServerSetupTool --root="\websites\adobeupdates\cct"

Choose one of the following options  :

1. Fresh Synchronization.

2. Incremental Synchronization.

3. Generate Client Configuration XML.

4. Migrate to an In-House Server.

5. Exit.

Your choice: 1

Fresh Synchronization chosen.

I am also experiencing this same issue. I've got a brand new Win Srv 2008 R2 VM and I am trying to sychonize with the adobe servers. First i tried with the --fresh option and that just wiped out the folder that I wanted to store the updates in and then crashed because it couldn't find the folder it just deleted!   Next I ran the command without the fresh switch and the update began to download but just like the rest of you, I would get the Server not responding message and the syncing would stop.

Well, I've kept at it and so far, I've downloaded 472 updates out of 1056 however, I've been restarting the command on and off for over 12 hours - this is just plain old stupid.

It's most probably an issue with the adobe update servers. I believe they have a short timeout set on the connection since it seems (based on the log file) that whenever a setup.zip file is encounted, that's when the not responding message appears. I'm assuming the setup.zip file is farily large and the server just times out and disconnects.

I've also noticed that there will be times that I will get a fair amount of updates downloaded before loosing the connection. At one point I went from 278 updates downloaded to 342. The very next try went from 342 to 347. Of course, each time you run the command, it starts from 0 and has to count/verify all the way up before it begins downloading the next update.

So, I think that adobe had their heads up their butts when they decided to go to the "cloud" and completely underestimated how busy their servers were going to be and how choked their connections were going to get.

I've said this for years and given the recent issues I had simply installing the CC programs and now this, adobe is quite possibly the worst software company on the planet. Great ideas but very poor implementation.

Found this dated 10/30 - have yet to try it:

http://blogs.adobe.com/oobe/tag/ausst

....

Customers using AUSST where experiencing an intermittent issue whereby downloads where timing out. We have now updated the version of AUSST carried in the CCP 1.3 download and also on Devnet to resolve these issues.

...

relaunch creative cloud packager and get prompted to update - that should bring down the AUSST new version.

Hi OptoInc,

Have you tried the new version and did it resolve your problems?

Hello, I am experiencing this very same issue.  I try again, and each time, it fails at a different update, but never gets further than about 28 or so out of 1048.

Can you shed some light on this issue?  Thanks.

Hello,

The error obtained is "server unresponsive", which could be due to network issue and may resolve by retrying. You may like to run AUSST in "Incremental Synchronization" mode (that is option 2) to avoid re-downloading files that are already downloaded.

If you still face this issue, after retrying couple of times, we would need DLM.log to analyze this issue further. Please use steps below, to create detailed DLM.log

Please create asu.trace file at “%temp% “ on Win machine, where AUSST is running.

Then run AUSST again and collect the DLM.log found at  "%TEMP%\AdobeDownload"

Thanks

Thanks Sumitash. I apologise for delay in reply.

After creating the blank asu.trace file, all I get in the DLM.log file is a single line each time I run the AUSST initialisation. This is the contents of the file after 4 attempts:

Am i missing something? I even rebooted the server after the first attempt. Running fresh or incremental makes no difference.

Thanks for uploading your file Philadendron. Not sure what you did different to me. I had a quick look through the file but don't think I can be much help. Hopefully, someone from Adobe can have a look and get back to us.

I am running on a Windows Server 2003 virtual machine in case that makes any difference. Will try to get the log using a Windows 7 Pro x64 pc soon although I don't expect any difference.

Ian.

I just  tested this on a Windows 7 x64 pc and actually got a DLM.log file which looks very similar to philadendron's one. You can downoad it here (i think, as I have not used this before):

https://www.hightail.com/download/OGhmaXRDOC9oMlY3czhUQw

Here is a copy of the command line that generated the DLM.log file:

Fresh Synchronization chosen.

Folder exists at given root path! All the contents of the folder will be deleted.

For more information refer AdobeUpdateServerSetupTool.log at C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\ .

Can someone from Adobe please review these DLM.log files and provide some advice.

Hello bwCCTAdmin,

I'm wondering if you and I have any consistencies in our network environment.  You mentioned you've tried the sync on a Windows 7 box, I've been trying on a Server 2008 R2 box.  The server runs through an HP 4108 switch.  I have a Barracuda Web Filter, but there's a bypass for the IP address of the box I'm trying the sync from.  I've also got a Cisco 5510 firewall. 

I don't really want to run AUSST on any other box since this is my IIS box.  I've tried enabling/disabling some of the Advanced settings on the Broadcom NIC in the server (a Dell Poweredge R510), but to no avail.  No matter if I do an incremental or a fresh sync, I can't get past about 23-25 items out of 1050. 

Please let me know if you figure this out.  I'd love to get CC rolled out to my designers, but I certainly don't want 20+ installations all hitting the Internet and downloading updates willy nilly.
