Probably,you can check that by looking at execmgr.log from ccm logs ?

[anyweb]

take a look at this post, does it give you some ideas ? could be that the update worked and your still looking at old data,

have you verified the client version ON a client (not from the server)

[Mr.G]

I'm just doing a test on 1 machine to figure out if the package was distributed and installed successfully. I will post the log very shortly. Perhaps you guys can tell me then what you think?

 

Thanks

[Mr.G]

Ok so I cleared the logs on 1 station. Here is the log execmgr.log content

doesnt look like it's run yet, how long have you waited and have you succeeded in deploying anything to this client yet ?

[Mr.G]

Waited a fair while now and I did specify to run as soon as possible in the distribute software wizard.

 

I've not yet sent anything to this host, I wanted to make sure that .2157 was working first. That was my primary concern.

[Mr.G]

Refreshed log from host.
