Close Backup Exec 12.5 for Windows Servers management console. Select Next on LiveUpdate. There currently isn’t a command line way to start this per Symantec and the management console should automatically close, but sometimes it doesn’t.

We have SBS 2011 Std running for about 7 months. Recently installed security patch KB2753842.

AFter install, Backup Exec 2012 would not longer start. Speciffic error was that the BE management service would not start. Event logs showed TCP Error 10013 - attempt to access socket (50104) was forbidden by access permissions. We are not running Windows firewall. We are running Symantec Endpoint Protection and that product is not blocking this port. Worked with Symantec tech support and they said everything looks good from a configuration standpoint. Final step was to remove kb2753842.

I did that and once again Backup Exec starts and runs normally. I'm not sure how to report this to Microsoft so I thought a post here might help someone else. To put this in a straight way 'If an update is installed and OS functionality is lost Microsoft has to look into it but If an update is installed and third party application stops working then it's the manufacturer of the application that should look into it, keeping in mind updates are designed and released for OS functionality improvement' Coming back to original issue kb2753842 is a security update. Security updates are released after known bugs, probable vulnerabilities are identified and tested. Compromising security of an OS at a cost of running backup software? At least I won't do it. 'attempt to access socket (50104) was forbidden by access permissions' - This is not port block issue (may be this is coming from symantec tech support who have no idea what they are talking about).

A simple procmon trace should show what access level permissions are missing and can be corrected. The update installed was downloaded around the 20th, so I guess it is the latest version. It has not caused problems anywhere else that I know of. Then again this is the only place I know of where the OS is SBS 2011 std and the issue is with Backup Exec 2012. I did find some updates for BE and installed them. I think the smart thing to do would be to try 2753842 again and see what happens. The problem is that this is year-end closing and I would not be able to do anything until after next weekend?

The main program executable is _3207B59E601B5F75D71B21.exe. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. Vista shortcut manager 64 bit. The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to launch the program at various scheduled times (the schedule varies depending on the version).

Is this worth pursuiing?
