Discovery is failing with 'Missing Classification Information' message. - Support and Troubleshooting

Discovery is failing with 'Missing Classification Information' message. Issue Discovery is failing with below error message after upgrading to newyork:

Error evaluating C:\Users\svc_cmdbdisc\AppData\Local\Temp\GenerateWMIScriptJS_WMI_FetchData3696280959267867313.js: Expected ';

"Missing Classification Information"

Release Newyork and Above Versions.

Cause The error was coming from "Windows - Classify" probe: https://Instance_name.service-now.com/nav_to.do?uri=discovery_sensor.do?sys_id=b11453f50a0a0ba500a72547a687189e

This error is coming from below code: if (JSUtil.nil(result.Win32_OperatingSystem.Caption)) this.processError("Missing Classification Information");

This is because the script was not able to decode the data though it is showing up properly in ECC Queue. Resolution The Windows Classify sensor was older version and was modified because of which it didn't get upgraded. There is a change in the format of the data sent by MID server in Newyork release and it is being sent in JSON format. Older code just handles it assumes that it is in XML format. Change the sensor and classify probes to Newyork versions for this to work and then the modifications can be applied after that if required.
