Redeployment of update while running: workflow replacement fails

[D-r-P-3-p-p-3-r]

Expected Behavior

The running update workflow should finish or should be successfully replaced by the new one.

Current Behavior

The redeployment leads to the termination of the running workflow, but the new one fails to start.

Steps to Reproduce

Redeploy an update while an installation is running on the device.

Device Information

• Architecture: arm32
• DU Agent Version: 1.1.0

Additional Information

During testing an update got redeployed while it was already running on a device.

The DUA log shows the following entry shortly after the redeployment:

2024-12-09T09:28:02.4290Z 992[992] [D] ComponentName:deviceUpdate, propertyName:service [ADUC_PnP_ComponentClient_PropertyUpdate_Callback:536]

It then apparently tried to replace the running update with the new one:

2024-12-09T09:28:03.9818Z 992[992] [I] Replacement. workflow '45a4bdac-648d-4754-809f-8783a978cce8' is being replaced with workflow 'bfe61d89-542f-4093-ba99-c5386233739c'. [ADUC_Workflow_HandlePropertyUpdate:511]

After the download step of the previous update was canceled successfully:

But then something goes wrong with the replacement of the workflow:
