Hi, I'm from HCL AppScan (used to be owned by IBM).
Around 7/Oct for about 1 day (not too sure), many customers reported that they couldn't update their product (AppScan Standard) with error. We could reproduce the issue in-house. Took the trace of the update, it shows
(Agent1300:39216)[10\7 17:24:50:371]: Checking certificate against domain: .installshield.com in http://updates.installshield.com/?

The issue was already resolved after some time, but still some customers asking what was the cause. Did you have any server side (certificate ?) issue on that time? ( I have checked the https://status.flexera.com/ but couldn't find the cert related issue).
So, was it just an operation mistake on certification renewal which will unlikely happen in the future, or did you have any unnexpected issue?
As it was widely affected issue, we have some unhappy customers which we need to make some explanation about the situation for them. Any additional information would be appreciated.
