Application Catalog Error in New SCCM 2012 Installation

[BzowK]

Hey All -

 

I recently set up SCCM 2012 here at work. I've worked with 2012 twice before in DEV environments as well as a history with 2007 so am familer with how it works. After installation and initial configuration, I went about installing roles for a couple of other features including the Application Catalog.

 

I installed both Application Catalog roles onto the primary site server, but since then have not been able to use them. When I go to the site in a browser, it looks like it will load and even shows the tabs at the top -but - in the body says "The website cannot communicate with the server..."

 

I checked the Monitoring and logs and found the same error in the Dist Point monitor, App Catalog monitor, and Windows Event Viewer.

 

Application Web Service Control Manager detected AWEBSVC is not responding to HTTP requests. The http status code and text is 401, Unauthorized.

 

Possible cause: Internet Information Services (IIS) isn't configured to listen on the ports over which AWEBSVC is configured to communicate.

Solution: Verify that the designated Web Site is configured to use the same ports which AWEBSVC is configured to use.

 

Possible cause: The designated Web Site is disabled in IIS.

Solution: Verify that the designated Web Site is enabled, and functioning properly.

 

For more information, refer to Microsoft Knowledge Base.

 

I've searched everywhere for an answer and can't find one. I even played with IIS permissions with no luck.

 

EDIT

When installing the App Catalog roles, I also set the Web Application name, am using port 80, but left the IIS website blank if that helps at all.

 

Any Ideas? Thanks!

can you check SMSAWEBSVCSetup.log (Records the installation activities of the application catalog web service.) for any errors ?

 

ensure you have all the prerequisits installed for application catalog role. check the post here http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/4422-using-sccm-2012-rc-in-a-lab-part-1-installation/ IIS components if you have all

I have the same error like BzowK.

In my SMSAWEBSVCSetup.log, these two errors appeared:

CWmi::Initialize(): CoCreateInstance(WbemLocator) failed. - 0x800401f0

CWmi::Initialize(): CoCreateInstance(WbemLocator) failed. - 0x800401f0

But in the end, I got "Installation was successful."

So perhaps it is installed. But I still have it reporting the Application Web Service Control Manager error.

Any advice?
