Hi, We’re trying out with [hosted.mender.io](http://hosted.mender.io) and if the header mismatch occurs in mender artifact it’s waiting 1 minute and trying again (this occurs 3 times). I want to change this behaviour as failure in dashboard after 1 failure. Can this be done with hosted mender? Can we change this behaviour in mender client? Thanks in advance. ---

Hi @danie I’m guessing this occurs because you have specified retries when you created the deployment. Those retries will always happen when a deployment fails. You should be able to just eliminate the retries when you create the deployment and this issue will go away. Drew ---

Here while creating the deployment the retries section specifies “Don’t retry” yet, it’s trying 3 times ![Screenshot from 2020-12-01 11-36-45](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/mender/original/1X/25b6eb46ab8d9e4c638627afc165554cc1e5634e.png) Do I need to change it somewhere else? ---

I do not think that this is related to the server side settings. The Mender client does not distinguish between errors and it will use [RetryPollIntervalSeconds](https://docs.mender.io/client-installation/configuration-file/configuration-options#retrypollintervalseconds) for any error it gets during the update cycle. I thin this is what you are seeing. If you can share the Mender client log, we can make a final confirmation that this is the case. ---

Indeed, this is the Mender client not distinguishing between error types, and it is working trough the “normal” retry loop. I seem to recall that we have a ticket for this. @kacf do you know? ---

I remember we talked about it, but I’m not sure if a ticket was filed. At least I cannot find one, so feel free to report it.
