Hello everyone,
I am having a rather strange issue with some of my application deployments that I don't unterstand.
If I deploy a program to a User Collection the automatical upgrade of superseded versions is not working. The new program version shows as new available application in Software Center. Even if a superseded version is already installed. No automatical upgrade is performed. PolicyAgent.log entries are compiling policy and Raising event: Instance of PolicyAgent_AssignmentDisabled. No entry about the program is found in AppIntentEval.log or AppDiscovery.log. Also no Toast notification is displayed.
After I open Software Center and manually clicking on Install, Software Center detects the old version and changes the status from Available to Past due. The program is then installed and detected normally. AppIntentEval.log shows the supersedence chain detection normally. After the next User Policy retrieval PolicyAgent.log entries are now compiling policy and Raising event: Instance of PolicyAgent_AssignmentEnabled.
Deploying the program to a Device Collection works as expected. For Device Collection deployments the superseded version is automatically upgraded after the installation deadline is reached.
Some information about the software:
Thank you all for any information about this behaviour.
