TPAHTS broken by Windows update

Hi

When we upgraded to v11.0.3 on Tuesday, PAH stopped working. Took us a while to realise, but it was actually a Windows update that broke it, not the Tessitura upgrade. (thanks Caryl @ RAH!)

Error in the PAH log is System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xFFFFDF2B): Exception from
HRESULT: 0xFFFFDF2B

Does anyone know exactly which update it was? It takes ages uninstalling an update and we installed quite a lot of patches on Tuesday. Windows Server 2008.

Thanks!

    Frannie,

     

    If the specific error noted in the posting below from 2013 which is:

     

    Failed to print order.System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xFFFFDF2B): Exception from HRESULT: 0xFFFFDF2B.

     

    appears in the PAH log, it is indicative of a known Microsoft bug related to RDS-based applications. Check your Microsoft updates to see if KB2698365 has been installed. If so, this update should be uninstalled and the system restarted to resolve the error. Microsoft published a hotfix for this error in 2013 which can be obtained from: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2734642.  Please note that security update 2698365 which initially caused the problem as well as the noted hotfix 2734642 are applicable to computers running Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.

     

    This COMException error:

     

    Failed to print order.System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0xFFFFDF81): Exception from HRESULT: 0xFFFFDF81

     

    when seen in the PAH log can be resolved by restarting the PAH service.

     

    If you are seeing a different error than one of these 2 errors or if you have any questions about what is noted here please open a TASK ticket so that Support can assist you.

    Hi there,

    We too are getting a COMException error.  Is there an update as to which Windows update could cause this?

    thanks,

    Hello,

    At Melbourne Recital Centre we have just started receiving alerts in our live environment with this same error message.  Error: 0xFFFFDF2B - COMException. We are currently restarting our PAHT service twice daily.

    We are looking into whether the same windows update has caused issues for us, but wanted to see if anyone else has any further thoughts as to why this may be occurring?
