We recently upgraded our paid support version of Teamcity to 2017.1.4, with our master running on Windows. The upgrading of the mac and linux build agents are fine, but the Windows build agent is having some of the files, for example java-dowser.zip, being flagged as a potential trojan, by our enterprise AV software.

In the support archives here, I've seen a 2014 post about directories to exclude from AV scans here:

https://teamcity-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/206841345-Recommendation-for-Anti-Virus-Exclusions?input_string=question%20regarding%20anti-virus%20tools%20and%20TeamCity%202017.1.4%20%5B47070%5D

Can you verify that this guidance is still applicable? with the 2017.1.4 release and associated files used for build agents?

Thank you for any suggestions or recommendations.

Hi,

this guidance is still applicable, but this might not fully stop the antivirus from removing the file. I've created the issue https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/TW-51807 in our tracker to check whether there is anything we can do. Feel free to watch, vote and add any comment you might find useful.

If you can, adding which antivirus is blocking the file might be useful.
