The new file cannot be installed.
-- A Bot Defense Profile has a staged signature. -- The staged signature points to something that does not exist in the update file.
Enforce the staged signature.
Before deleting the signature, the installation process checks to see whether the signature is staged, and if it is, the process unstages it.
