client isnt installing

[The Last Remnant]

hi folks

to be honest im trying the best to avoid this problem but with no luck

 

i worked based on anyweb topics in installing SCCM 2007 , i did all the configurations based on the 3 parts he explained in the section setup sccm 2007 , now im in a process of installing the sccm client on an xp computer using push installation but its not installing

 

i tried to check if there are any icons created in contol panel on the client side but nothing is there , ichecked if there is any folder to fetch the logs on the client side under C:\WINDOWS\system32\ccmsetup but there isnt any folder created !!!

 

i checked C:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\Logs\ccm.log on the sccm server and this is what i found : ( attached )

 

how can i successfully push to all my clients the sccm agent as we have here over 2000 clients and ofcourse i cant do that manually

 

any help would be highly appreciated

 

thanks in advance

Hi,

 

I am having the same client push installation issue. I did not see any CCM icons on client. Here is how I added the WindowsXP Pro.Version2002SP3 client.

 

1. Complete the SCCM 2007 SP1 Server Setup as per guides

2. Login to client and changed Domain name to same as AD Domain Controller on SCCM 2007 SP1 Server which was successful.

3. Client was rebooted because of the above change.

4. Login to client as "Domain\Administrator" and verified for any new CCM icons in Control Panel. But I did not see any new icons or I did not see any ccmsetup dir.

5. Both the systems are pingable each other

6. Firewall is disabled on both the systems.

 

Could someone let me know what I am missing?

 

Here is the log from SCCM server:

on the SCCM server, you have to check if the client appears in the All Systems Collection

 

does it ?

[Torpedo]

Yes the client is appeared there. But how do I make sure that client is installed as CCM client? I did not see anything about CCM on my client.

 

Thanks

[Jovin]

try disabling it, does it work then

 

Nope, tried it and just tried it again just to make sure.

Could someone help me here. I could see the client in "All Systems Collection" but client did not get installed with CCM client.

 

Let me add my steps here how I added the client.

 

On client: My Computer > Properties > Change > Enter the Domain name, which asked me permission credentials and then I entered SCCM server AD Domain Controller credentials like <Domain>\Administrator and Password. Then client is added into that domain and asked me to restart the client. I completed the restart. Then I verified SCCM All systems collections which shows this client. Now I am stopped because I did not see any CCM client ICON on client's control panel.

 

Thanks

in the SCCM All Systems collection, right click the CLIENT and choose Install Client, select all the checkboxes and click next

 

the sccm client should now install on the client computer, refresh it after 10 minutes in the collection (right click on the all systems collection, choose update collection membership) then refresh in the collection, does the client say Client=Yes now ?

[Jovin]

So, i disabled the firewall on a few windows Vista's and XP's - the client installed later onto the day. But, I'm still wondering why some of the XP clients that had the Windows Firewall up still got the client installed. I'd like to the have the Windows Firewall enabled if I can. Is there anything in particular that i need to make as an exception?

 

Thanks

[anyweb]

i do believe the last post in my setup sccm2007 guide covers this in detail.

 

cheers

I tried this and found the clients still did not get installed. I am not sure what is happening here. Could someone let me know.

what domain account have you configured as the Client Push Installation Account =?

 

this user must have local administrative access to the computer that you are trying to install the client on
