Upgrade to DataMiner 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 is stuck
Affected versions
DataMiner 10.5.1 and 10.5.2
Cause
In DataMiner 10.5.1, a change was introduced that could trigger a loop when users in the Security.xml file have expired
set to "true"
.
Workaround
- Stop the DataMiner Agent.
- In the Windows Local Users and Groups configuration (lusrmgr.msc), set the passwords of all users to never expire.
- In the Security.xml file (located in
C:\Skyline DataMiner
), replace all instances ofexpired="true"
withexpired="false"
. - Save your changes and restart DataMiner.
You will now be able to execute the upgrade. Until a fix is available, we recommend keeping the passwords set to never expire and not adding users with the setting User must change password at next login enabled.
Fix
Install DataMiner 10.5.0/10.5.2 [CU1].
