I ran into this problem with the iwebmsg.exe file. I re-ran the 7.04HF2 patch and then re-attempted the 7.05 patch. I got farther this time, but stopped again at 26% with bpserv.exe. I have tried completely rebooting the machine with the same results. Any ideas?

The upgrade stopped on the file 'IMailsec.dll'. I did a reboot of the server and tried the update again. The update worked successfully. Don't know if this will help in your situation but I thought I would mention it. Of course I stopped all the services after the reboot.

We'll get the patch thing straightened out as far as the file identification problem goes. However, there is no way to replace a file that is in use by a running process without stopping that process at some point. What the patch (should be doing) is putting the files out there with a slightly modified name. At the end of a successful install, if it detects that some of the processes (services) where in fact running, it tells you that you MUST reboot for the patch to take effect. (This reboot message is easy to ignore, and frequently is) This is because when you reboot, a script is run by NT that renames the files back to the original while the old files are deleted. That is how all patches work. If I may make a suggestion, wait til your customers complain about something that is corrected in this patch and then tell them you need to schedule a little bit of downtime to make the correction. Then do it during a period of minimal activity. Sorry for the trouble this has caused! Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
