Ranger21 Posted June 6, 2022 ID:1518787 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I've been using the program without any problem for months and now it suddenly gives the error of not being able to update the database. The message is "Program Error Updating 11001, 0, Host not found. No such host in known" It has updated the db without any issue many many times; the license has not expired. In command prompt I did: ping data-cdn.mbamupdates.com And got the result below; I understand that the server is not down.

Ranger21 Posted June 6, 2022 Author ID:1518790 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Thanks for your answer, I downloaded the tool. But it seems like it wants to 'repair' or even uninstall the program, however I don't need that, the program is working fine, I just tested it with a full scan.

Ranger21 Posted June 6, 2022 Author ID:1518798 Share Posted June 6, 2022 OK, I did so and got a ZIP file. But it says I should send it to Support team (not in Forums), since it contains some private data too. So how can I send it to Suport? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthos Posted June 6, 2022 ID:1518818 Share Posted June 6, 2022 Just now, Ranger21 said: Business version You should have received an email years ago informing you of the new versions for business. I would highly suggest that you open a support ticket with Business Support to work with them directly. Submit Business Support Ticket It can take a few days for a response as ticket volume is high at this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baumbach Posted June 6, 2022 ID:1518821 Share Posted June 6, 2022 All of my clients PC's are receiving the same error when tying a manual update "Program Error Updating 11001, 0, Host not found. No such host in known" Using version 1.9.0.3671 of the Malwarebytes Management Console, self hosted server, which shows it has the current signature v2022.06.06.4, but none of the clients / desktop PC will update, they stopped updating about a month ago, back in May. I have not seen an email from Malwarebytes about them not letting the clients update any longer, only emails years ago about them wanted to change a lot more money to switch to their cloud hosted system Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger21 Posted June 6, 2022 Author ID:1518828 Share Posted June 6, 2022 OK, regarding opening a ticket. I login into my account at https://my.malwarebytes.com From there there is a link to open a ticket too, different than the one you indicated; the URL is: https://support.malwarebytes.com/hc/en-us/requests/new I have two questions: 1). Why are there two different URLs for opening a ticket? https://service.malwarebytes.com/hc/en-us/requests/new https://support.malwarebytes.com/hc/en-us/requests/new What's the difference and which one is not good? 2). Even if I am logged in into my account, when I open these ticket pages they show me as not logged in! Why is that so? All normal sites let you submit tickets as a logged in user so that the support knows who the user is and who to address. Very weird implementation...
