please see my other original bugreport over at the chromium folks, as the bug
is mainly visible over there from within google chrome.
never the less the component that behaves this way and is having the bug is
the googleupdate.exe process (win32, winxp pro sp3, latest patches feb2010,
latest chrome 4.x release from february 2010)
chrome bugreport:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=35527
so maybe its you guys who would be in charge and fixing this bug.
thanks and regards.

I disable Google Update because it insists on running 24/7. This is
unacceptable for any updater.
The problem is that every time I install a new Google product or update an
old one, Google Update is reinstalled or reenabled. So I have to go through
the steps of disabling it in four different places yet again, Startup,
Scheduled Tasks, Services, and the browser add-on.
Something like a "never install" registry key would be much appreciated,
and vital in my opinion if you insist on reinstalling it with every Google
product without asking permission.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. I setup the Omaha pack as described in "Developer Setup Guide"
2. I open a command prompt and change directory to my main omaha folder (where
the hammer.bat and main.scons and so on files/folders are).
3. I type hammer in the command prompt and get the following error:
'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file
4. Assuming I'm missing an entry in the PATH environment variable I add such
that point to my Python folder (C:\Python24 - where python was installed and
where python.exe is)
5. Once again I open a command prompt and go to the omaha folder. This time
when I type "hammer" in the command line I get the following error:
TypeError: len() of unsized object:
File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\scons-2.1.0.alpha.20101125\SCons\Script\Main.py", line 1338: _exec_main(parser, values)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I suppose I should end up with compile success
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm working on Windows 2008 R2 and I tried both the omaha from the svn trunk as well as the one provided in the following archive:

I installed the Google Earth plugin to view something in a website and then
uninstalled it shortly afterwards. However, Google Update which supposedly
should uninstall itself has stayed on my system all day, even after multiple
restarts. How do I manually remove it from my computer? This is tantamount to
malware.

Updater should run as a scheduled task and not as a service.
Running an application all the time is just bad.
The correct implementation is to run as a scheduled task (like crontab on
linux).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. The problem happens periodically (maybe every few hours) without any user
intervention.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output: nothing.
Actual output: Visual Studio JIT Debugger screen(s) come up saying An unhandled
win32 exception occurred in GoogleUpdate.exe [3280]. I have seen as many as 20
instances of this screen at once.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Google Chrome and Gmail Notifier are the only Google software installed on the
machine I believe.
Please provide any additional information below.
OS is MS Windows Server 2003 SP2
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Google Chrome to no effect.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. When it has checked (and installed?) it's updates it should shut down
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It stays open until the computer shuts down
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.2.131.7
Please provide any additional information below.
Why should it be open continuously? No programs do have new updates every
hour, so it is not necessary to keep it running. If it runs only on startup
it would be enough I think...

Google omaha can't be build with newest Visual Studio 2010. The biggest problem
is that it can be even build if Visual Studio 2005/2008 is installed together
with Visual Studio 2010 (There is some autodetection which always prefers to
use VS 2010)
I did several experiments to build this software using Visual Studio 2010, but
I always failed, although I solved some things.
So, is VS 2010/2012 support planned in the future? When it's expected to be
done?
Thanks!

See http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10822.
If user installs system level Chrome, the "dr" key is still created in HKCU.
On uninstall we cleanup HKLM\Software\Google\Update\Client* but not
HKCU\Software\Google\Update\Client*. HKCU should be cleaned up as well.

Re-opening bug 41 as requested.

Reopened. :)
because I have evidence that the previous answer is incorrect.
This setup.exe annoyed my dad again a couple of days ago so he installed
Process Explorer. Then the setup.exe happened again yesterday. Here's what
Process Explorer reported:
---
GoogleUpdate.exe GoogleUpdate.exe 3172 7,452 K 3,472 K
Google Installer Google Inc.
22.0.1229.94_22.0.1229.92_chrome_updater.exe
22.0.1229.94_22.0.1229.92_chrome_updater.exe 2948 536 K 156 K
setup.exe setup.exe 3944 66.15 236,832 K 424,276 K
Google Chrome Google Inc.
---
Clearly this setup.exe is coming from Google with Chrome.
The problem is that setup.exe is running at "Priority - Normal - 8".
Also, immediately after he told me about this, I asked him to check
about:version. It reports Google Chrome 22.0.1229.94 (Official Build 161065)
m, which is the stable update we pushed yesterday.
This evidence (the signature of setup.exe, the fact that immediately afterward
my father's Chrome browser running an updated version) indicates that this is a
google process.

This is reporting http://crbug.com/15509 upstream.
I frequently encounter this error on a Windows XP machine. An error dialog
box pops up with title "GoogleUpdate.exe - ApplicationError" and message
"The
application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142). Click on OK to
terminate the application.".
It seems to appear periodically, with frequency of ~2 hours (very
approximate).
The error disappeared after running Windows Update, so unfortunately I
don't have a good reproduction case for now. But maybe you can extract
something from this comment by dhw:
I found this article from Microsoft that mentions error 0xc0000142 on XP; I
don't know
if it applies. The article mentions for console-based applications. I
wonder if
GoogleUpdate.exe is considered a console-based application? The article
is:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/950312
In short, the article includes a hotfix for Winsrv.dll for XP SP2 and SP3
systems "that
are experiencing this specific problem".

-Install Google chrome from Omaha (google.com/chrome)
-Delete CrashReports folder from C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local
Settings\Application Data\Google
-Launch Chrome and navigate to about:crash
Expected:
CrashReports folder should be created.
Issue:
Folder is not created. If user navigates to about:crash, the tab hangs for 2 or
3 mins, then user shows up with sad tab. Before sad tab is shown, if user tries
to move the tab, then browser window crashes some times.
PS: If user deletes the CrashReports folder then installs Chrome from Omaha,
then the CrashReports is created.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start computer

Expected: Computer starts normally, responsive
Actual: Computer is unresponsive. I notice Googleupdate running, note Crash
handler running.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.2.131.7 on Windows, which came with Google Chrome.
Please provide any additional information below.
Do not automatically run programs on my computer. Google Chrome can and will
update in the background while it is running. I do not want the updates to run
when I start my computer, because it is already busy starting other slow things
(virusscanners, Windows Update etc.).

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open Chrome's proxy settings (i.e. Internet Properties->Connections->LAN
Settings...)
2. Set [x] Use automatic configuration script to set the script to include a
port number http://autoproxy.yourdomain.com:9090 where that URL produces
something like...
function FindProxyForURL(url,host) {
var me=myIpAddress();
var resolved_ip = dnsResolve(host);
if (me == "127.0.0.1") {return "DIRECT";}
if (host == "127.0.0.1") {return "DIRECT";}
if (host == "localhost") {return "DIRECT";}
if (isPlainHostName(host)) {return "DIRECT";}
if (!resolved_ip) {return "PROXY proxy.yourdomain.com:912";}
}
etc. My script contains ~175 lines of complex logic - some lines as long as
2400 characters.
3. Reboot to allow the "Google Update" (GoogleUpdate.exe /c) startup entry to
run, or more easily, select "About Google Chrome" under Chrome's Alt-F menu.
4. If MS Visual Studio is installed, it will catch the crash "An unhandled
win32 exception occurred in GoogleUpdate.exe" and ask if you want to debug.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected Output: no crash
Actual Output: An unhandled win32 exception occurred in GoogleUpdate.exe

Currently, the updater does not provide a setting to disable it from
constantly running.
I managed to disable it by other means, so now it only launches when I open
Chrome's "About" window to manually check for updates. It even terminates
automatically after checking, which is great. It's just the way I like it.
However, this was done by working AROUND the updater, rather than THROUGH
it. It would be better if the updater itself had a proper Settings window
where I could choose how often I wanted it to run, ranging from
"constantly" to "every X days" to "manually".

From my dad:
---
Looking at the windows task manager a few minutes ago due to high cpu
usage, I saw that a task consisting of a series of numbers, followed
by what looking like "google updater". Then a moment later, that
stopped and "setup.exe" took over with high cpu.
I assume that the updater kicked off setup.exe.
Some days ago, I also found a setup.exe running with high cpu.
Concerned I had picked up a virus, I immediately killed it. Today's
experience made me think that occurrence was another "google update".
So two suggestions:
1. run the updater at a lower priority so that it doesn't take over the machine
2. setup.exe should have the google name in it, so that people have
some idea what it is

He's running Windows (XP I think; I can check if it's important).

Issue 2 . If a script cannot be supported, at least fallback to the

together with "Use

1-3 instances of googleupdate.exe will repeatedly attempt and fail to make
outbound

When anybody does a rebranding of omaha, the unit test InstallHelper
in file setup_files_unittest.cc might fail, because the test expects
specific order of files returned by FindFiles(version_path, _T("*.*"), &files)
invocation.
This patch fixes the issue.

(Also see b/2582006)
Some organizations want to be able to control the maximum version that users
update to, primarily because they've only verified legacy applications with
Chrome to that version, or they want to control the size of the update
(updating only on a minor version update may incur only a differential update,
whereas a major version update may require a full XXMB download)
It would be nice to have a way to control, via group policy, the exact version
of a product to which a client should upgrade, or perhaps control the maximum
amount of bandwidth consumed by an update.

As part of the fallbacks to help ensure the new version of Omaha
(1.2.183.7) is as reliable as when the core ran continuously, Omaha checks
whether it has been more than 14 days since the last successful update
check. If so, it falls back to running continuously as before.
The problem is that it does not take into consideration that there may be a
legitimate reason for not having a successful update check in the last 14
days. The legitimate reason is that a user or network administrator have
set the AutoUpdateCheckPeriodMinutes Policy to > 14 days or 0 (update
checks disabled).
Reproduction Steps:
1. Install Omaha
2. Apply Group Policy to disable update checks using GoogleUpdate.adm in Group
Policy Editor.
3. Move the clock ahead 15 days.
4. Run the core scheduled task
Other variations:
* Set the update check period to 20 days in step 2 instead of disabling
updates checks.
* Swap steps 1 and 2.
Expected Result:
The GoogleUpdate.exe /c process exits.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Build as non-admin on Windows 7
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect build to succeed, but the install_self_unittest_no_xml_parser unit tests
fail (these run automatically as part of the build).
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r109 on Windows 7.
Please provide any additional information below.
I believe that this failure is spurious.
The tests check that HasXmlParser() fails when the registry is redirected with
RegOverridePredefKey(), because the MSXML library needs to read registry keys
that no longer exist when the registry is redirected.
However, when running as non-admin on Windows 7, the registry is not fully
redirected. Crucially, the accesses that would have caused MSXML to fail are
not redirected, and so HasXmlParser() does not fail.
I've created a minimal reproduction and attached it to this issue, along with
the logs produced by procmon when running as admin and non-admin.
I've also created a patch which simply ignores the tests if the user is not an
admin.

2. Realize that it's Windows only.
3. Sigh.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output: platform independent code.

Not using any version of the product, which is exactly the point.

Please provide any additional information below.
Doing away with the MS-specific stuff would be good. Perhaps use a toolkit
other than ATL/MFC for the GUI?
Doing away with the MS Visual C++ requirement would also be interesting,
even if the project remains Windows-only - although since this requirement
seems to exist due to the ATL/MFC dependency, switching to another toolkit
would possibly also take care of it.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Allow ChromiumOS to fetch (download) an update image, but don't update
2. Shutdown ChromiumOS
3. Later, boot ChromiumOS
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect it to use the update image cached locally.
Instead, it download a new update image again.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
ChromiumOS, most recent dev build
Please provide any additional information below.
The problem appears to be an inability to:
(1) Identify the most recent cached copy of an update image to the Omaha server
as part of the request, rather than just the current version of the OS that's
running on the device.
(2) Validate that the locally cached copy has the same SHA1 signature as the
version which would be downloaded (to prevent interposition.
This could be resolved by including additional information in the request, as
well as an additional response code indicating "use local copy" to avoid
re-downloading (sort of like the will/won't/do/don't protocol used for IAC for
Telnet, FTP, etc., only statically stated).
In other words, it's still necessary to validate the cryptographic signature
with the server to make sure the image on disk doesn't have a valid signature,
but represents an interposed image.

I tried to debug it... it seemed that after assigning a string to
target_directory_name_ in tar.cc, the memory was corrupt. If I linked to
libcmt.lib,libcpmt.lib instead of minicrt.lib everything worked.
Adding this code to the Tar constructor and linking with minicrt results in
a blank message being displayed:
CString foo = _T("bar");
MessageBox(0, foo, _T(""), MB_OK);
sorry I haven't been able to figure out the exact problem in minicrt.
Original issue reported on code.google.com by [email protected]
on 27 Apr 2010 at 3:03
The validation logic in memcpy_s() and memmove_s()
(third_party/minicrt/memory.cc) is incorrect. A patch is attached below.
As far as Omaha is concerned, the bug manifests itself in opt-win builds
(which are linked against minicrt). E.g.: When the meta installer from an
opt-win build is run, it will terminate with no user-visible error.
memcpy_s() is used by CString, which is used by the meta installer to
construct path strings. These path strings will fail to be initialized
properly due to this bug, resulting in the abnormal termination.
(Possibly related to issue 19).

My comments below pertain to GoogleUpdate.exe, not GoogleUpdater.exe (notice
the "r"). Hopefully this is right place for this issue.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Google Chrome using the stand alone installer. Google Update is
installed at the same time. Configure Chrome to use a proxy with the --proxy-
server switch.
2. Browse the web and be happy.
3. Go to "About Google Chrome" and notice that a new version of Chrome is
available. Click "Update".
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected the update to work, but it failed because Google Update does not
use Chrome's proxy. Even worse, there is no way to specify a proxy for Google
Update.
Note that GoogleUpdater.exe (notice the "r") can be configured to use a
proxy. GoogleUpdate.exe should also have that option.
