This issue may be resolved by using the remote execution subsystem that is available through the administration console to update policy on managed devices or by applying the fix in the attached ZIP file to your administrator server as follows:
- Close any web browsers that are using the ManageSoft operations portal.
- Backup <Program Files>\ManageSoft\Portal\Web\Modules\SecurityBulletinManagement\Web References\localhost\Reference.cs.
- Unzip the Reference.zip that is attached to this knowledge base article.
- Do one of the following:
- If you are running ManageSoft 7.0[.x] or 7.2[.x], copy Reference70-72.cs to <Program Files>\ManageSoft\Portal\Web\Modules\SecurityBulletinManagement\Web References\localhost\Reference.cs.
- If you are running ManageSoft 7.5, copy Reference75.cs to <Program Files>\ManageSoft\Portal\Web\Modules\SecurityBulletinManagement\Web References\localhost\Reference.cs.
- Stop and start the IIS server and the application pool that is associated with the ManageSoftOP application (DefaultAppPool or ManageSoftAppPool).
Open a web browser and navigate to the ManageSoft operations portal. Try to "Deploy patches below to managed devices targeted by the selected policy" OR "Apply policy now to managed devices".
You should now be able to perform these operations successfully.
