Good Afternoon!
In need of some assistance from you more experienced SCCM admins. Let me quickly run down the steps of what I've done:
1) Created a network share for CRM 2015 that everyone can see
2) Ran the EXE from Microsoft and followed the instructions from them to create the CrmClient_32.msi
3) In SCCM, created a new application, and linked the shared folder. SCCM auto-populated the install command, publisher data, etc. The only thing I added was "/s" for the MSI package to install
4) Created a Device Collection with one test PC that already has CRM 2013 installed
5) Deployed the application to the device collection with the following options:
Under Content Tab:
Content Location: \\networkshare\Installs\CRM2015
Persist content in the client cache is NOT checked
Allow clients to share content with other clients on the same subnet IS checked
Deployment options: Do not download content
Under the Programs Tab:
Installation program: msiexec /i /s "CrmClient_32.msi"
Installation start in: blank
Uninstall program: msiexec /x
Run installation and uninstall program as 32-bit process on 64-bit clients IS checked
Under User Experience Tab:
Installation Behavior: Install for system
Logon requirement: Whether or not a user is logged on
Installation program "margin-bottom:9px;padding-right:0px;padding-font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:21px;word-wrap:break-word;color:#333333;">Maximum allowed run time ( 120 minutes)
Estimated installation time (0 minutes)
6) I schedule the install (for most applications I've seen this works best)
Now when I go to Monitoring, all I see is the deployment is "In Progress" and the category is "Waiting for content"
I'm frustrated because I don't understand why this won't work. It seems so painless and the method I've described above works for almost any other application I've pushed out.
I'm all ears - is there anything you see that isn't correct? Any ideas or suggestions? If you've successfully pushed out CRM 2015 some how (even if it's not through SCCM), could you please share your solution?
Thank you so much! -Nick
