I'm testing out the self service software update feature - but it seems
like it's doing stuff, then just stops. The progress bar on the self
service window is about 50% complete, but there hasn't been any updates
in the install.log file for over 10minutes. End users that have tried
it have reported similar issues (bar gets to about 50% then doesn't move
after that).
It happens on 10.6 and 10.7 systems, is there another log file I may be
missing that could have more detailed info?

Hi John,
I'm experiencing the same and I'm wondering. Do you have "Update Inventory" selected (under the Advanced tab)?
In our case it seems that this part causes Self Service to act weird and would respond any more. CPU usage is very high and the fans in my MacBook Pro are full speed. After a while it goes away but it seems that unchecking "Update Inventory" make the Self Service work (but you probably would not want that).
Kind Regards,
