Module: check_mk Branch: master Commit: 24dd2fe61916e509332dcaaae6cff1f41526f1fd URL: http://git.mathias-kettner.de/git/?p=check_mk.git;a=commit;h=24dd2fe61916e5… Author: Andreas Umbreit <au(a)mathias-kettner.de> Date: Mon Feb 26 16:18:46 2018 +0100 5274 FIX cmk-update-agent: prevent saving state file to wrong directory on windows The Agent Updater would accidently save its cmk-update-agent.state to C:\etc if this directory was existant. This could lead to an implausible update state. Virtually the Agent Updater would lose its registration information. After an update or a manual reinstallation to a newly baked agent, a new registration might be required. However, you might want to delete the cmk-update-agent.state located at C:\etc after the problem has been fixed.
