Hi, does anybody know if it is possible to change the colours of the square tiles used in the SCCM company portal? It appears to be totally random and icons specified when creating the application only show up once you have actually clicked on the tile within the portal.
It would also be nice if you could change the pictures on the default 'new apps' and 'browse by category' options on the front page.
Thanks
Hello,
when we update some Package and click on Distribution point, client will download the whole package instead of overwrite the existing one - new version is created. It means small change in the script leads to download whole package. The similar issue with Application has been solved in kb2928122.
We are on 2012 R2 SP1.
Is it known problem for Packages? Does anybody see that same problem with Packages?
Thank you for answer
Hello,
I am looking for a way I can use a Detection rule script or method to detect if Bitlocker is turned on or not. I have an application I'm calling "force bitlocker" which basically runs a few scripts to get bitlocker to start. The problem I'm having is finding a proper way to have SCCM detect if bitlocker was successful or not. From doing research it looks like a powershell script using some WMI queries might be the answer but I can't seem to figure out a script that works properly. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hi all,
Using Config Manager 2012, I ran into an issue when deploying CutePDF and Ghostwriter (dependency) to a few test VM's.
Win 7 x86
Win 7 x64
Win 8 x86
Win 8 x64
When deploying to Win 7/8 x64 installs with no issues, but with Win 7/8x86 CutePDF fails to install. Config Manager says "The application was not detected after installation completed", client machines say "Failed".
On CutePDF's website I'm only able to get a single .exe which I assume installs for either x64/x86 machines. I unable to find anything in the Application properties in regards to 32/64 bit. I'd appreciate any advice or guidance.
Thanks!
Here is how I understand supersedence in SCCM, or how an application team would go about working with supersedence.
1. create new application, version 2, create supersedence in application version 2 to supersede version 1
2. remove all deployments of application version 1. How would a client know how to behave if it had version 1 and version 2 assigned as required
3. retire version 1 of the application
4. deploy version 2 of the application.
So how does this work with dependencies? If I have version 1 as a dependent on say 37 different applications, do I need to manually remove that dependency and add version 2 as a dependency? is this taken care of automatically (I don't think so, but I am not sure)
I ran a deployment with the detection method set on the registry. So the installation gave me an error 0x87D00324.
Throughout my search I learned that this error basically states that the detection method is bad even though the app may have installed anyways.
Is there a way to edit the deployment to change this?
Hi Guys
we have over 300 applications, randomly a lot of them are set to run only on workstations and not servers.
ow with the update of R2 SP1 and the deployment of Windows 10 we want to allow all the applications to be able to run on Windows 10 (if set to run 7 x86 then add 10 x86, of set to run on 7 x64 add 10 x64)
what is the best automatic way to achieve this?
is there a PowerShell script to someone that can help with this?

I have been working for a couple of weeks diagnosing the error with my /CMApplicationCatalog where it reports "The web site cannot communicate with the server. This might be a temporary problem. Try again later to see if the problem has been corrected. If this problem continues, contact your help desk."
This is a single instance box with Config Manager and SQL residing together. I installed everything by the book for my environment. (But I'm here asking for help, so apparently that's not entirely true)
I have searched all through Technet, Google, and anything else I can find. I've identified the cause of my error, just not how to fix it. Looking at my IIS settings for /CMApplicationCatalogSvc under the Connection Strings, I changed the Encrypt=True to Encrypt=False and that fixed my /CMApplicationCatalog. However, every time a I reboot it reverts back to Encrypt=True thus breaking my /CMApplicationCatalog. Obviously, I'd prefer it to be encrypted. Now I'm hear, asking for guidance.
When I look at the certificate options for my SQL server I have 2 options. The first is "ConfigMgr SQL Server Identification Certificate" that is self signed (obviously that's my problem). The latter option is a cert signed by my CA that is trusted by my clients, but SQL will not start when I select that certificate.
How do I setup a signed cert with SQL?
My connection string
Data Source=lpc:(local);Initial Catalog=CM_XXX;Integrated Security = true;Connection Timeout=50;Encrypt=True;TrustServerCertificate=False;Application Name=Application Offer Service
Hello all,
New to the forums and would like to know what software is recommended for building applications for SCCM 2012 for either 3rd party application or even MS applications?
I know the Application wizard helps create these packages using MSI's but am trying to avoid using the old packaging way from SCCM 2007 for software that do not include MSIs.
I have found one free application from Dell and multiple applications that are chargeable but want to know people opinions and usability. Also these mostly use snapshots of OS to create the MSI, is there an application that does not used snapshots to create MSI apart from fasttrackscript\msi ?
Also is there any software that can automate the importing of applications\packages into SCCM 2012 rather than either doing manually (creating Collection, Package, Program and Advertisement) or by Powershell script?
Cheers
Hi,
We are using SCCM 2012 R2 CU4
Wanted to know if there are implications, risks or settings to take while moving from a device based deployment model to user based deployment model. Currently all our deployments are targeted to devices and we wanted to explore the option of deploying to users. That way even if user logs into a different machine required applications get installed.
We use Task Sequence model for deploying most of the custom software and application/package model for other standard software
I know that choosing Install for user in the Application Deployment type settings works differently for different software.
I just want to know if we need to consider anything before applying this approach to the production users
I am using SCCM 2012 R2 and have 2 applications made available on a collection. Clients on the collection are taking about a week sometimes to discover the available apps under 'Software Center'. Eventually they are discovered. This happens with only some not all clients. No trace of the application in appdiscovery.log and forcing "machine policy retrieval and evaluation cycle" gives the below snippet on policyagent.log
Requesting Machine policy assignmentsWe have a SCCM 2012 SP1 environment setup ready and configured. I am trying to deploy an application to clients. When i do it, the application is deployed successfully and can be seen in the Software center console in the client machine. But the installation is not starting and even if i manually try to install it wont start and throws an error : The software change returned error code 0x80070005(-2147024891).

Im not even able to make it run manually, can you help with the command switch to avoid this? Or do i have to modify the msi?
msiexec /i SkypeForBusinessPlugin.msi /quiet
Hello,
i have to do a rollout and I want to try something.
1. The application should be downloaded to the cache of all affected clients.
2. I want to control if the application is cached on the clients,
3. After all clients got their content I will activate the installation.
Has anyone experience in something like that?

Hello.
I am trying to delete an outdated application from my SCCM environment.
However when i try to delete I get the warning that the application cannot be deleted because of 1 dependent task sequence.
I have been through every single task sequence and there is no reference to the application in any of them.
The application also no existing deployment types and and no deployments.
If I look in revision history for the app, it shows Revision 23 but I do not have the option to delete it.
How can I permanently delete this application from SCCM?
Is there a way to tell who changed the Task Sequence in SCCM? Which log shows who made changes in SCCM?
Thanks,
Brian
Hi,
I have a powershell script that I want to distribute as an application (cant do a package as this has to be a dependency for another application). The Deployment type needs a detection method. When a script does not produce a file or registry setting, how do you set a dummy detection method? It cannot be an existing file cause the app wont run as it thinks it is detected. Do I have no choice but to generate a blank file or dummy reg setting from the script?
Thanks

Hello everyone, not sure if this is the correct place to place this question, if its wrong I apologize.
I am having an issue when I update my WIMs on the server. Here is the scenerio:
I create a new reference image with MDT, then copy it to the SCCM server-Using same name. I select both Redistribute under Content Locations under proprieties, and I also select Update Distribution Point. After a few seconds, I refresh and I can see my content status go from Green-Success to Yellow-In Progress. about 15 minutes later, I see it go green-Success and the Last update changes.
ere is my delima, I deploy that image and it is the old one. I go onto the DP, and if i can find the PSXXXXX for that image, it has the old one.
So can someone tell me how to force it to update. I have these images embedded in alot of task sequences and don't want to delete and create.
Thanks
