We are trying to track down an issue with software updates not installing, but I think it may not be limited to software updates. On a client machine, we were looking through the SCCM logs, and found:
in DataTransferService.log
Error sending DAV request. HTTP code 404, status 'Not Found'GetDirectoryList_HTTP('http://<ServerName>.bdo.com:80/SMS_DP_SMSPKG$/287ac60f-34a5-4177-9862-000c29ae592c') failed with code 0x87d0027e.
We attempted to browse to that URL, and found that it was, in fact, returning a 404 / not found. We are able to browse to that location on other distribution point servers, however. We then looked further into that server, and found that there were dozens of applications and software updates missing in the SCCMContentLib folder. The logs we have do not go back far enough to determine the cause as to why they failed to copy.
The most concerning issue is that the Monitoring/Content Status in the SCCM console showed that the content was successfully copied out to that server. Running a "Validate" content against that server also did not resolve the problem.
On the DP server, we found in the SMS_DP$\sms\logs\smsdpmon.log:
CSMSDPMonitoring::ReportStatusMessage failed; 0x80004005This is repeated over and over throughout this log. We're finding the same error message repeated on all of the DP servers. The content status shows that everything is in sync, but a manual verification does not.
We're guessing that this error indicates that it's unable to communicate the 'failed' status of the packages, but I don't understand why the primary site server would indicate that the content distribution was successful without a status message indicating such.
Performing a Redistribute on the package has successfully copied out the missing files, but we're still concerned that this will be an ongoing issue, with failed packages, and monitoring not telling an accurate story.
Any thoughts?
