Hi there!
After deploying package to the device collection the package stays in the "Installation Status" tab with the only available option as "Reinstall". Is there a way to get this package to the "Available Software" where it was right after the deployment?
Thank you!
Hi!
Could anybody be so kind to share the way to use SCCM package as a dependency for the SCCM application? Or how to convert the SCCM package (which deploys .bat file) into the SCCM application?
Thank you very much, in advance!
Hi there!
Could anybody be so kind to point to the free tool(s) and or instructions on how to make my own MSI package?The most important is that this package should be able to run the .bat-file which is the part of the package. I usedAdvanced Installer Freeware, but it does not provide the .bat-file execution functionality for free.
Many thanks to you, in advance!
SCCM 2012 Application Deployment failed with error 0x80070005 or downloading stuck at 0 % however my boundary group are configured and applications are uploaded successfully to DP
Cmtrace error : Event maps to notification type = Application Enforcement Failed
Monitoring Deployments (Can't locate content)
Any Ideas?
I know I can define detection rules for any application deploy in sccm 2012. But I do not see where I can define detection rules for a package. The only thing I can do is to define what o/s I can deploy to. But I would like to detect file existence before deploying the package. How can I define this rule in a package?
Any response will be greatly appreciated!!!
Good morning,
Here's what I got, we have a package with Office 2013 Pro Plus that has everything installed except Access, b/c most do not use Access. Our business labs are about to start teaching Access, so we need to deploy access to these device collections that
require this feature to be added. I know I can create another custom MSP with the OCT admin pack, and I have, but I do not know how to deploy it to these few collections and force it to update.
My main questions, if I create a completely new application in SCCM and point it to the new MSP file that has ALL the features plus access, what do I set as the detection method, since they already have Office 2013 installed? WHen I deploy it it will
find it's already installed and will not update. (or so I think?)
Long story short, I want to update the existing Office 2013 installation on a few device collections to include / add Microsoft Access 2013 and I need to know your opinions on the easiest way to do this with SCCM 2012
Thanks!
Hi,
I want to calculate the total amount of CO2 saved in the tons from the collection in sccm.

Hi all!
For testing purposes, I added return code 1602 in the "Return Codes" tab of a deployement type and added "User cancel installation" as name and description. What else I have to do to read this description in the Software Center? When starting the Application installation and cancelling it, I'm able to see the error code by clicking on "Failed" in the status bar of the Software Center, but the AppEnforce.log shows "Unmatched exit code (1602) is considered an execution failure". In my opinion it is not an unmatched exit code, because I defined this error code in the deployment type.
Did I miss anything or is this normal behavior?
Best regards, JeeCay
Hi there!
I have 3 SCCM objects:
I numerous attempts to accomplish that deployment I decided to go with the Task Sequence. The task sequence will include 3 tasks:
What should I put into the Task Sequence if I know the GUIDs of the Applications #1 and #2?
Thank you very much!
When I deploy an application and the user goto software catalog and click install...the application shows up in system center as available until the user reboots his computer then it starts the download and install......Why? what logs do I need to look at to see what is happening and causing the new application to not install on demand?
Hi,
We are creating/deploying Applications using SCCM powershell module...
It runs ok but I can not find how to get Content Distribution (between SCCM DPs) status
regarding a specific SCCM Application using powershell - sccm 2012 r2.
Has someone did this programatically (Get-WMIObject …. or SCCM Powershell Module) ?
I can't find powershell commandlet from the sccm commandlet reference that does that.
The closest thing I can get to my need is this :
(Get-CMDistributionPointGroup-Name'RDS_Distribution_Group').ContentInSync
… returns the number of apps that are not yet in sync between the DPGroup members
(Get-CMDistributionPointGroup-Name'RDS_Distribution_Group').OutOfSyncContentCount
… returns true or false

Dear All,
I have an issue with an application discovery in SCCM 2012 R2. I need to know if a licence file is already in place. Therefore i created an application discovery which uses in the folder path the parameter %ProgramFiles(86)%\application.
is this kind of discovery working or do i need to use hard coded pathes like C:\Program Files (x86)\application.
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Best Regards,

Hi all,
I'm looking to find the best way to update java on desktops. Unfortunately if I only run the last java exe/msi version I will have two java versions. I've tried to create a package and push java latest version with a option run a program first witch is a vb script to uninstall all java versions. Unfortunately vbs script is crushing with sccm. If I run this script manually is working.
Any other approach for this task?
Thanks.

Hi,
I've created an application deployment for .Net 4.6 with simple installation: "NDP46-KB3045557-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe" /q (for system, run wether user is logged on or not).
Detection method is to check if registry HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full
"release" is equal to 393297.
I've deployed this as required and everytime device discovers this deployment and tries to install the application it instantly fails with error:
Device: xxx
User: (system)
Error Code: 0x4005 (16389)
Error Description: Unknown Error (16389)
Description: Action failed
When I click on "retry" in software center it always proceeds to downloading and installing it successfully.
What could be the reason of this failure on first try?
Hello,
I was hoping that it would prove easy to remove the above but it's not the case.
I thought I would find the GUID linked to the Skype msi and perform removal this way via command file.
However, I have not found the GUID for Skype. Neither does an entry appear in Add/Remove programs.
I reckon that Skype is installed as an application and I see the tile icon on startup.
Browsing on a client I see a directory under C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.SkypeApp_3.1.0.1016_x86__kzf8qxf38zg5c and a whole load of stuff in there.
Can anyone offer me any guidance ?
Thanks...
Hi experts.
I have made this a discussion rather than a question as I am really after other experts opinions regarding the removal of retired applications from ConfigMgr 2012.
The scenario we have is a list of some 150+ retired applications and a lack of space on the source location to keep them with new apps being added weekly. Obviously, some of these apps would be superseded by others and may be still installed on some devices, especially if they had only been retired a couple of months ago with no remediation work to remove the apps from the devices.
I'm really after some helpful tips that could provide assistance for me and anyone else who reads this thread and is tackling the same or similar scenarios, so that we don't fall into some obvious potholes during the process.
As i see it, the following is what I would consider the process:
One step I haven't included as I believe it should have been included as part of the initial retiring process is:
Is anyone able to provide some additional helpful steps that they feel have been overlooked or missed off of the above list? Any "things to avoid" or "be careful when doing this" comments?
Thanks

Hi All,
I have a number of machines that show they have deployments against them in the management console but but they do not display in software center. If i delete the deployment and then deploy it again then they show in software center. How can i find out why deployments are not displaying on some machines?
The apps are not displaying in Appdiscovery.log.
There is no OS detection against the applications.
I have deleted a couple from SCCm and rediscovered them and they produce the same result.
The client has been reinstalled / repaired and same result.
Any ideas?
