Cause

The upgrade failed to upgrade all files in the ..\ESM\bin\dcmodules\Control\Windows\ directory during the upgrade, as they were in use/locked by the OS.

 

Resolution

  1. Reboot the server to remove any locks on those files.
  2. After the reboot remove those files/back them up to safe location.
  3. Manually install the SCU or run the ACU job on the agent to install the content.
  4. run a data collection again and confirm the error no longer shows.
