CX5500 provisioning issues

[Robin_Honeywell]

OK, this CX5500 is becoming a real issue. We deploy these globally and there doesn't seem to be a reliable way of remotely updating the software on them, pretty poor stuff really.

This is where we are at ->

-> CX5500 with v1.1.2.1.4

-> Custom server address is updated with the correct URL

-> Click update now on the web gui and the phone accesses "millenium/info.txt"

---- FTP server output 

PASS *****
230 fake user logged in
TYPE I
200 Type set to I
PORT xxx,xxx,xxx,xxx,145,46
200 PORT command successful
RETR /EMEA/xxxx/millennium/info.txt
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection

-> Phone displays the message "A file error occured during the software download process. The software update will be cancelled. Contact your administrator for assistance".

-> phone reboots.

Things I've tried -

-> factory reset, then settings -> basic -> update configuration, check configuration file for all settings, same result

-> factory reset, check configuration file for all settings, same result

-> provisioning to the CX5500 works, check by changing timezone etc.

-> ftp server is fine upgrading vvx600, vvx410 and provisiong them as well

I sure wish I could say I had an answer to this, but I do not.  I am having the exact same issue.  Phone displays A file error occured during the software download process.  I checked IIS logs and see this:

GET /millennium/info.txt - 80
GET /millennium/platform/current/release.sig - 80
GET /millennium/platform/current/release.txt - 80

All of these requests get 200 "ok" so really wondering what file it is trying to find.  Has anyone succesfully provisioned a firmware update of their CX5500 with an internal Custom Server?

Is there a module log level I can turn up to see what the phone is trying to access during an update?  If so, which one?

Hello RonR,

The logs for this are gathered via a USB stick and once unzipped are within the messages files.

A good info would be what the currently installed software version is and what are you trying to upgrade to?

For example a log from an attempt to downgrade (which is currently not supported):

Hi, the CX5500 is currently running 1.1.2.1.4 and I am trying to upgrade to 1.1.3

Need a bit more guidance.  Do I plug in a usb stick and then the logs are automatically written to the stick when the update attempts?

[SteffenBaierUK]

Hello RonR,

plugging in a USB stick will shortly after start writing the current and older logs.

If you have tried the upgrade process prior to this the log will contain the action. The log writing process will not continue if the USB stick stays plugged into the unit.

Unplugging and replugging will write the new logs.

Hi, do you have any news about the problem?

I'm attempting to upgrade CX5500 but it doesn't work.

The device reads the info.txt file hosted on internal FTP but doesn't continue the update process.

Thanks.

[SteffenBaierUK]

Hello Enrico,

welcome to the Polycom Community.

Rather than me to copy & paste simply have a look at my reply => here <=

Could you kindly at least state the Version you are currently running and also the Version you are trying to upgrade to?

As already replied plugging in a USB stick will shortly after start writing the current and older logs.

You can then compare the Log output with the similar output I already posted.
