  • Some Computers report 'Upgrade Blocked'
  • Message similar to following received when attempting to resend all policy rules:
Internal error reported from 'DOMAIN\COMPUTERNAME': Failed configlist file import Location[https://computer.domain.net/configlistwithdeleteditems.xml.egk]: Error[Failed to obtain CL file[https://computer.domain.net/configlistwithdeleteditems.xml.egk]: Error[WinHttpQueryHeaders StatusCode[00000194]]] Attempt[1].

Environment

Cause

When IIS uses separate web site or a different IIS web server is configured as the Resource Download Location then IIS MIME configuration must be updated for the App Control file extensions

  1. Login to the application server hosting the IIS Site used for the alternate Resource Download Location
  2. Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
  3. Navigate to: Server Name > Sites > select the relevant Site.
  4. From the middle pane open MIME Types under the IIS Category.
  5. Choose Add and use the following details:
    • File name extension: .pem | MIME type: application/x-pem-file
    • File name extension: .egk | MIME type: application/x-egk-file
    • File name extension: .enc | MIME type: application/x-enc-file
    • File name extension: .bt9 | MIME type: application/x-bt9-file
