streacy Posted May 10, 2011 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 Hi guys I am hoping you can help me. I have just installed SCCM 2012 in a test lab. 1 x sccm server 2008 x64 and a seperate sql server also 2008 x64. I am trying to install and configure in a week and I have sadely failed due to upteen issues. My latest battle which I am stuck on is I can't get any client to push out. All devices say NO. In Monitoring I also have the following SMS_Distribution_Manager - Critical SMS_CLient_COnfig_Manager - Warning SMS_Site_Component_Manager - Warning SMS_Multi_Service_Point - Warning I have been through every forum for help, which is why I am posting this as i have tryed everything. I have been following the labs on here and have it set up the same. I have uninstalled reinstalled webdav and tried loads of stuff. I aso can't locate the log file you all reference. If you can help or want more info let me know as I am totally stuck and pulling my hair out lol. It has found all the devices and the users, wsus is working and I have setup the web page for the users. Please help, all I need is the client to push out, it won't even work doing it manually.

MattW Posted May 10, 2011 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 Hi, Obvious questions I guess but have you configured your site boundaries to use your AD site(s)? If so, have you tried setting them as subnet boundaries instead? Have you configured a network access account that sccm can fall back on to install the client? Finally what happens on the client OS when you try to install it? Do you get any SCCM folders / logs? Cheers, Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Matt Hi I had configure the site boundary to use active directory. i have just deleted this and entered the ip/subnet instead. When you push the client, I am confused where it is picking the client up from. The only client i have on the server is from within the cd I installed the software. I then try a push from the client using \\sccmservername\e$\SCCM Install CD\smsetup\bin\i386\ccsetup.exe /source:\\sccmservername\e$\SCCM Install CD\smsetup\bin\i386\ccsetup.exe /mp:sccmservername SMSSITECODE = MAR We see the client start up in task manager but trying to install a 32 bit version of the client on a 64 bit machine. Then it does nothing no local file or log file created. If you can help I would be grateful. I am totally stuck :-( after nearly 5 days lol Sam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

streacy Posted May 10, 2011 Report post Posted May 10, 2011 Okay just an update. I have found the location of the ccmsetup and given domain users full access to the folders. Yet still the client install does not work. Please help! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattW Posted May 13, 2011 Report post Posted May 13, 2011 Hi Sam, The client that SCCM will be trying to deploy is by default here : C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\Client - depending on where you installed it to ofc. That has both the 32 and 64 bit client but you just need to invoke ccmsetup.exe on your target machine to install the SCCM client. (although it sounds like you`ve found it - no need to modify permissions there - SCCM handles that) Regarding the components, I wouldnt worry about WSUS for the moment - that will have no impact on client deployment and to be honest I always get a boat load of errors after a new SCCM install on that - until the WSUS role has done an initial sync and SCCM has got it's database sorted out I tend to just ignore the status of it. The important one to have a look at is the MP Control Manager - if your management point is having difficulties it could explain why the client isnt behaving. Finally, have you configured an account for client push? Go to the Administration tab, Sites, then right click your site and select Client Push Installation and have a look around there. It could be you arent allowing installations to workstations, or maybe you just need to set an account with admin rights on the target computer.
