Application being deployed to machine outside of collection

[itinerant]

Hi there,

 

I recently joined an organisation that has started to use ConfigMgr 2012. I've started to get involved with how it works, and have recently come across an issue that relates to my own machine. We push out an application called Kodu Game Lab to a specific collection of machines. My own machine isn't part of this collection, but I discovered that the application is being deployed to it. This application is configured to install Microsoft XNA Framework Redistributable 4.0 before installing Kodu Game Lab, as it is required for the application to work.

 

After looking into this, I found that I already had XNA installed on my machine. I occasionally log into Steam at lunch, so I figure one of the games I've installed needed it to run. My guess is that because ConfigMgr is picking up that I have XNA installed, it has gone ahead and installed Kodu Game Lab as well.

 

Has anybody had a similar issue? It would be interesting to hear what the solution to this would be, just in case we come across a similar problem when having to deploy other applications elsewhere.

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Find your device in the 'All Systems' Collection

Right click your client - properties.

Check the deployment tab - is kodu / xna listed?

 

Is this deployed as an application or package?

if an application check C:\Windows\CCM\Logs\appenforce.log on your client.

If it's deployed as a package check the execmgr.log in the same location on the client.

 

To make log files easier to read use cmtrace.

Just open trace from your client then open any log file

Hi Ath3na,

 

Neither XNA or Kodu are listed in the deployment tab.

 

Here's an except from the AppEnforce log file:

Just been playing around with this a bit more. After removing XNA from my machine and running the Application Deployment Evaluation Cycle policy, Kodu is no longer being deployed to my machine.
