So I have a meeting later this afternoon to train our Service Desk on how they should be imaging machines in our environment and being the good engineer I am I setup a test yesterday to just "make sure" things were still working. As you can tell, they aren't...
I noticed my task sequence was hanging on installing an application that normally installed without issue... Frustration to say the least. So, I tried to see if I could just deploy the application, like I did when I originally created it and it worked, but it would stay stuck at "Downloading 0%"
Long story short and after some digging, I took a look at the ContentTransferManager.log and see the following entries:
Quote
Error sending DAV request. HTTP code 404, status 'Not Found'
GetDirectoryList_HTTP('http://servername:80/SMS_DP_SMSPKG$/Content_8eb0121e-4964-4641-a1a8-697c76ac623e.1') failed with code 0x87d0027e.
Non-recoverable error retrieving manifest (0x87d0027e).
CAS logs shows this:

The application source files live on another NAS/storage server, and I've checked the permissions so that Everyone has access to them just to get that out of the way but I need to stress that it was working and now its not... No idea when it could have broke either.
I have validated the application, I have removed it and re-added it, and I have even removed the distribution point role from the server and re-added it to no avail (pain in the but btw). Distmgr.log shows the application as being successfully distributed and GUI shows that application in the green.
I can still deploy updates and I can deploy packages, but NOT applications now. Boundaries are set correctly as this worked in the past! Maddening!
