I found this error code in Log.LiveUpdate:

The server connection attempt failed with a return code of 1814, LiveUpdate could not retrieve the catalog file of available Symantec product and component updates.

It indicates the issue with the proxy. Please follow these documents:

Indeed we are using a prozy server.

I did all in the specfied documents but I am not getting the following error, and not the 1814 error:

HttpSendRequest (status 502): Request failed - Gateway or proxy encountered an error on the LiveUpdate server.

Can you check if launching manually LiveUpdate it gives the same errors?

If LiveUpdate is laumched automatically it uses the System account. When launched manually it uses the currently logged user.

Hello,

Check SYSTEM account proxy settings through using a Scheduled Task

Hello Edwin ,

As stated above by Mithun this is a proxy issue .

Please try to Enable logs on your proxy and check them after a failed update for any requests related with Symantec LiveUpdate & then Create approriate rules for allowing the required connections.

Thank you

I seem not to understand. THe updates were downloaded on wednedsay but now i still get the error.

Hello,

Possible Causes: Legacy proxy settings in the registry still persist after environmental changes on client machine.

Solution

The legacy proxy settings can be removed by performing the following steps:

1.   Open the registry (Start->Run->type "regedit").

2.  Go to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings\connections

3.  Delete the registry keys "DefaultConnectionSettings" and "SavedLegacySettings".

4.  Reboot the machine.

Note:  These registry keys will automatically regenerate after reboot of machine.

Also, this also could be caused due to incorrect proxy server information in the following registry location: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\InternetSettings

Removing the incorrect proxy info from this key and then rebooting allowed the client to communicate normally.

One important thing to keep in mind is that any incorrect proxy information must also be removed from the following two locations as well:

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections\DefaultConnectionSettings HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Connections\SavedLegacySettings

If the settings are not removed from these two keys, they will repopulate the Internet Settings key after every reboot.

Remove the incorrect proxy information from all 3 registry locations noted above, then reboot.

Just to add, in many of my cases, where was an issue with the System Account at User Proxy Level. They had to Bypass the Proxy on the server.

Did you change any IE setting or change proxy setting ?
