Ive checked the Firewall, but there is no blocked. We have 2 Servers, 1 Prod and 1 test and the 2 Server get the same problems yesterday.

Has anyone an idea?

Hi Franko,

can you have a look if iany WSUS had been installed as Raymond mention?

So far i understood you is all Located on the Same Server and MC and SQL is not splitted?

I had one time a simmular issue with 15.6.5 that a WSUS Update crashed the Services.

Second is have you updated the JAVA on your Server installation?

-> Yes

You need to run the Installer from your current Installation again, that fixed the problem when the Search Service was not longer able to start

Thanks guys, yes the Server get a javaupdate and after this, we get the Problems. Ich checked the Windowsupdate logs. :)

After installing it again and set the java home patch button by installation it works fine.

thank you

Has there been any update/security patch done for the hosting MS-Windows server or MobiControl server or the firewall(s) between the MC search & MC management server?
