Update, we've identified the issue and we've built a correction script that must be executed as an administrator on affected machines: # Function to calculate file hash function Get-FileHashLower { param ( [string]$FilePath, [string]$Algorithm = "MD5" ) if (-not (Test-Path -Path $FilePath)) { Write-Output "Error: File not found - $FilePath" return $null } try { return (Get-FileHash -Path $FilePath -Algorithm $Algorithm).Hash.ToLower() } catch { Write-Output "Error: Unable to calculate hash for $FilePath. $_" return $null } } Write-Output "Environment Variables:" Get-ChildItem Env: | Sort-Object Name # Enable TLS 1.2 [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12 # Step 0: Locate "PC Monitor" service binary folder $ServiceName = "PC Monitor" $Service = Get-Service -Name $ServiceName -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue if (-not $Service) { Write-Output "Error: '$ServiceName' service not found." exit 1 } $BinaryPath = (Get-WmiObject Win32_Service | Where-Object { $_.Name -eq $ServiceName }).PathName.Trim('"') if (-not $BinaryPath) { Write-Output "Error: Unable to find binary path for '$ServiceName'." exit 1 } $BinaryFolder = Split-Path -Path $BinaryPath -Parent Write-Output "Binary folder located: $BinaryFolder" # Step 1: Download and verify update.zip $UpdateUrl = "https://updates.pulseway.com/update.zip" $DownloadedFile = "$env:Temp\update.zip" try { $WebClient = New-Object System.Net.WebClient $WebClient.DownloadFile($UpdateUrl, $DownloadedFile) Write-Output "File downloaded successfully to $DownloadedFile" } catch { Write-Output "Error: Failed to download the update file. $_" exit 1 } $ExpectedMD5 = "9235318c553c3f770ba95ab673566a4e" $DownloadedMD5 = Get-FileHashLower -FilePath $DownloadedFile if ($DownloadedMD5 -ne $ExpectedMD5) { Write-Output "Error: MD5 hash of the downloaded file does not match.

We're investigating the issue. -Paul

I apologize for this, our network engineering team are working to mitigate the issue. We will post updates on our status page as soon as we have them. -Paul

@KerryC for the crashes, did you see any "Application Error" error too? Can you please send us a screenshot of that event too? If the service is marked for deletion it should be removed upon a reboot. Once it's removed, you can use installutil from the C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319 folder to manually register the service: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\installutil.exe "c:\program files\pulseway\pcmonitorsrv.exe" -Paul

Hey @Leroy, Do you have an Application Crash event in the Application Windows Event Log? -Paul

Incidentally Google Firebase has deprecated their v1 push notification API which is what has caused the Pro / Free tier to stop sending Push notifications. We've patched it for the team plan but for the Pro / Free plan we're unable to fix it as it's running a really old version of the server software. Trust me when I am saying that we're not deprecating the Free and Pro plans because of an attempt to convert the user base to paid plans, it's just impossible for us to support that business model in the server software as we've been fighting compatibility issues for 9 years now since the launch of the multitenancy model on the Team plan. This was not an easy decision to make and we're doing what we can to make the transition smoother. -Paul

Hello @SESNut, Are you on the Pulseway Pro / Free plan by any chance? Those plans are being discontinued and they are indeed having some issues with Android notifications. We can help you migrate to a Pulseway Team plan. -Paul

Hey @Martin Petersson, We don't support custom installers for macOS just yet however this is something that we're considering for the future. Sorry for that! -Paul

Hey @Mahesh De Silva, Try using this batch script (remember to add each line in the pem file in the script as separate echo calls): (@echo -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- & echo line1 & echo line2 & echo line3 & echo -----END CERTIFICATE-----)>warp.cer & certutil -addstore ca warp.cer & certutil -addstore root warp.cer -Paul

Hi @JChiz4761, Can you please reach out to support@pulseway.com? We'll be happy to assist! -Paul

@otto.kovar We're working on expediting an app update to be released. @SteveAtVarlink Can you please PM me your instance name? Is the problem still present? -Paul

We've discovered that some old installations of the Pulseway app are incorrectly displaying the "This application version is no longer supported, please update it" message. To resolve the issue, you just have to sign in again. Our development team is working on releasing an update that detects this situation and prompts you to re-authenticate automatically. On the Android app, if you don't can't use the "Log out" function, just long press on the app from the home screen and select "Clear storage" and you should be prompted to authenticate when you open the app. We apologize for the inconvenience caused. -Paul

@Jerdal, I cannot locate your email by date nor by address hence why I need your email headers to identify the message IDs and see if our email provider has received it. In the meantime, just PM me your instance name, username and the last 4 digits on the credit card on profile. -Paul

Hey @Nelson, Can you alter the token value to be 'redacted' and then PM me your full request (include HTTP headers)? -Paul

Hello Jerdal, I do see a support ticket from July 2023 and which was replied to 30 minutes later, did you not receive the reply? Edit: I've looked all over for your email on June 19th. Can you please PM me the email headers so I can take a deep dive on it? -Paul
