Failed to run the action: Capture the Reference Machine.

[jgtran]

hello,

 

I'm trying to run the Build and Capture Task Sequence. It looks like the TS failed at Capturing the reference machine. I've attached the smsts.log file. Could someone please tell me what could be the issue?

 

Thanks,
JT

smsts.log

check if it actually has a valid IP Address before the capture as i see this in the log

 

<![LOG[unknown host (gethostbyname failed)]LOG]!><time="16:34:00.172+420" date="03-14-2014" component="TSManager" context="" type="3" thread="164" file="libsmsmessaging.cpp:624">

<![LOG[sending with winhttp failed; 80072ee7]L

 

 

which usually translates to no ip address or network/dns issues.

Hi Niall,

 

Thank you for your response. I'm able to capture Windows 7 using your guide.

 

Thanks,
