Open task sequence log with cmtrace on error

Hi,
Is there a way to make an SCCM 2012 R2 task sequence automatically open the smsts.log (with cmtrace) when an error occurs?

I would agree with Torstren. The difficult piece would be determining where the smsts.log is, based on where its at in the task sequence. Once you have that it wouldn't be too difficult to place those steps in the
Gather Logs and StateStore on Failure group. The catch will be, even if CMTrace is open, the machine will still reboot after 15 minutes unless the cmd prompt is also open.

i had this happen on two of my dp's the other day. It drove me nuts, I ended up removing the DP Role, removing the server from SCCM
I then deleted all files on the 'D :' drive
after everything was deleted, I re-added the Server to SCCM and gave it the DP Role back.
I then added the DP Back to the DP Group to receive all packages that was on it before. then finally once everything was re-uploaded my users were able to pxe boot again

SCCM 2012 Export Task Sequence fails with generic error message

We have a complex task sequence comprising of more than 50 applications\packages, 1975 drivers, 18 driver packages etc etc. Its long, it's big and it will not export with it's content.
We have several environments for development test and live. I am attempting to export the primary task sequence with all it's dependencies from live so that I can port it over to a new development environment.
I can export the zip file without content and it comes to 92Mb in size. The entire task sequence software set is 50Gb+. When I attempt to export with all dependencies and content the process gets about 60% of the way through and fails with the error
"Error: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect"
Googling the error roughly defines the problem as 'the export process cannot access the defined source path for one of the dependant items'
I wrote a PowerShell script that looks as every application, package, driver, driver package, boot image, os image and software update package in the entire SCCM software library and verifies that each and every package has a valid UNC source directory
that can be reached using test-path.
I also wrote another tool that parsed the entire source software library on the server looking for permissions errors (permissions on the structure set at a directory level rather than inherited), directories that were too long, inaccessible or otherwise
blocked, nothing was found.
It will take a very long time to go through and check each and every dependency by hand - time I do not have at present.
I looked in the TaskSequenceProvider.log as that is supposed to contain messages from the export process and found the messages in there far too high a level to use

====================
Is there any way of increasing the log verbosity? I need to see what item is causing the export to fail.
Is there another log containing the information about the export & what it is doing?
All out builds that use the task sequence complete successfully, we can edit the sequence fine, make changes etc. so no internal corruption we can find.
Any ideas?

Torsten, smsprov.log did indeed prove useful, I could see every package as it was validated. Unfortunately the log was wrapping about every 4 minutes and it takes 3+ hours for the task sequence to reach the fail point so I still cannot see the offending
package as it wraps before I can get to the log.
I will increase the size of the log and see if I can maintain some details to investigate.
There was nothing of note in the event logs, certainly nothing leading me to suspect that WMI might be reaching its limits.
I will keep looking for the cause and will post here when I find it <= positive thinking :)

OSD Task Sequence Fails with Error 0x80091007

Hello Everyone,
I have a bit of a weird hash mismatch problem. The issue is only occuring on one laptop. The laptop was imaged successfully, new out of the box. Computer started "acting craptacular" according to the tech, so he tried to reimage it,
assuming one of the applications he put on the computer while setting it up for the user may have messed it up.
From that point forward, the computer couldn't image anymore. I can image the same model, TS, and even other models without issue. The error logs are pointing to a hash value mismatch on the OS WIM.
Here are the log files - I wish there was a way to make them cleaner. I ran some hardware tests with IBM's PCDoctor, and it came back clean. I'm starting to run out of ideas.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Guys,
My WIM is currently sitting at 1.8 GB, so I'm not sure it is the 4 GB bug you were referring to.
I haven't tried a re-import/update DP yet mainly because the problem is occuring on only
one computer at this moment. In fact, I have deployed several computers already with the same DP, same WIM and even the same model of computer. That makes me think it isn't an issue with the WIM as
much as it is an issue with the computer itself.
Can you guys think of anything on the computer that would cause the failure?
Thanks again,
Sean

XP to Win7 Upgrade Task Sequence failing with the error 0x800700C1 (Already applied the Hot Fix KB 2910552)

Hi all
I'm having the same error that is described in this article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2910552/en-us
So i have applied this hot-fix to the SCCM 2012 server and update the distribution points of all boot images. and also i have deployed the hot-fix client package to my XP machines. client's Task Sequence component is now updated to 5.00.7958.1104.
Still i'm getting the same error in SMSTS.log
Please help me on this.
Asitha

Which boot image are you using? It has to match the architecture (x86 / x64) of XP if I am not mistaken.

OSD Task Sequence fails with "There are no task sequences available for this computer"

Let me preface this by saying that I have read at least 100 forum posts with people having similar issues. However, none of the solutions in those
posts have worked for me.
The Problem: SCCM 2012 R2 will not image unknown computers.
The task sequence gives the error "There are no task sequences available for this computer." As soon as that error occurs, SCCM places an Unknown entry into the All Systems collection. I have been imaging unknown computers, without fail, for
4 months and no environmental changes have been made. NOTE: I am using USB media, not PXE.
What I've Tried:
Checked for duplicate SMSBIOS GUIDS in the console, none.
Checked for duplicate MAC Addresses in the console, none.
Checked for expired certificates, none.
Recreated Boot Media, twice.
Deleted the Unknown entry and retried, SCCM just recreates the Unknown entry.
Deleted all of my task sequence deployments, and then redeployed them each to All Systems (Only Boot Media and PXE) and to Unknown Systems (Only Boot Media and PXE)
I have also ran the following in the SQL Server Management Studio;
SELECT
* FROM
ResPolicyMap WHERE
machineid = 0 and
PADBID IN
(SELECT
PADBID FROM PolicyAssignment
WHERE BodyHash
IS NULL)
No result
Select
* From
vMacAddresses Where
MacAddresses = '00:00:00:00:00:00'
This displays an entry for every time that I have tried to image the unknown machine attached to the MAC Address with a different ItemKey and SMS_Unique_Identifier for each entry.
Added the machine manually using Import Computer Information, immediately recognized the Task Sequences that I have advertised to the All Systems collection.
Any and all assistance is welcome, I am going on the third straight day of dead ends. Below I have tried my best to post the entire SMSTS Log;

Post Upgrade to R2: Task Sequence Fails with 0x80070057

one SCCM 2012 server for a while now (June/July of 2013) and have had no issues with OSD's and software deployments. Today I decided to upgrade to R2 from CU3 and I thought the upgrade process went really well. But after the upgrade
I attempted to perform an OSD & it failed with error 0x80070057 before the Task Sequence selection.
I had that problem ages ago when I first started using SCCM, but that was due to a missing boundary group. I got that straightened out in June/July of 2013 and, OSD's & software deployments have been working fine since.
All the boundary groups are still defined
All the boundaries are still defined
The specific boundary this machine is in has a site system defined
The specific boundary group this machine is in has both an assigned site as well as a site system server defined
Verified server has full control over System Management

Could this be an IIS problem?

I've had problems after the R2 upgrade and had to reinstall PXE/WDS on Distribution Point to resolve.
Also ensure that you apply this hotfix after R2:

Win 7 x64 OSD Task Sequence BSOD with SSD

Hello,
I have recently rebuilt my OSD Task Sequences into ConfigMgr 2012 R2 and consistently experiencing BSODs on machines with SSDs after the machine boots after the "Setup and Windows ConfigMgr" step. When the machine reboots and starts Windows
Setup, it Blue Screens immediatley after attempting to Update System Registry with the Stop Code 0x000000f4
To validate the health of the SSDs, I am able to successfully build the same machines using bootable media from the (still standing) 2007 environment. Also, replacing the SSD with a standard HDD builds the machine successfully which makes me question
my driver packages less than when I first saw this. I am unable to see any steps in the Task Sequence that appear different between the 2 environments.
I have captured the logs from WinPE as well as the system drive before the crashes have occured - can anyone suggest where I should be looking to help flush out why this is occuring? For what it's worth, the drives are Crucial m4 SSD 2.5 128GB SATA
6Gb/s with the most current firmware.
Thanks
Scott

Here is a quick update as I continue to struggle with the same issue on a few different models in our environment.
I have made attempts with multiple different combinations of drivers in packages and continue to see BSODs when the TS reboots after configuring the ConfigMgr client. I have deployed the captured Win 7 image using a basic Task Sequence and have also
brought the Win 7 image from the 2007 environment into 2012 and replaced it in the MDT Task Sequence and the results are all the same.
Given that I can build machines using a Task Sequence with SCCM 2007 but not with ConfigMgr 2012 R2 points at this being a Task Sequence and\or Driver issue. I am appreciative of any suggestions or ideas.
Thanks
Scott

Multi-task data logging with DAQmx

I was wonder is it possible to use 'DAQmx Configure Logging' VI and 'DAQmx Start New File' VI for multiple tasks? I'm doing synchronized high speed DAQ with NI PXI-6133 cards. Each card (there are 16) must have its own task. Although the DAQ is continuous, the user (software trigger) determines when data is saved to the disk and for how long.
In my scenario the test length could be up to an hour with various test events scatter throughout. The users want to display the data during the entire test length. However they only want to write the data to disk during an event. The event could last from 10 sec to 1 min. That is why the users want to control when data is written to the disk.
DAQmx Logging seems to work for a single task only, but I need to do multiple tasks.

I've attempted to implement your suggestion, but I still do not acquire data for all channels for all tasks. I've enclosed my VI.

The error log for yesterday (sharpui.log.2011-03-03) has a size of 372000 bytes, mostly with thoses errors. The error number is not consistent : 10, 5, 6, 4, 12, 7, 14, 16.
My laptop is a ThinkPad T60 with originally Vista but upgraded to Windows 7.

Hi,
this might be related to the installation folder of PC-Doctor.
Please reinstall this application and reboot the machine. It might be possible, that on your system was other application installed (probably MS KB Update, or antivir update) and this interfered with the source files of PC-Doctor.
Also please let mek know, how often you see this message in the Windows event log.
Please do this as first and let me know, if this changes anything.
Cheers

Download content locally when needed by running task sequence functionality with Windows PE.

I am trying to understand what happens when the "Download content locally when needed by running task sequence" option in chosen on a task sequence deployment. My assumption is that any needed packages would not be identified
and downloaded until task sequence is kicked off.
Using task sequence boot media, it looks likes a package has been obtained before any task sequence has been selected. I am assuming the package was acquired during the WinPE boot process. Can anyone confirm that this is
the correct behavior when using the "Download content locally when needed by running task sequence" option? If not, how would WinPE be obtaining the PS100292 SCCM package?
This specific package contains and HTA file. Only one of several task sequences deployed to the All Unknown Computers make a call to the HTA file. The one that does, the HTA call is the very first step of the task sequence.

Hi everyone! I figured what was going on here. I was using an ESX VM and the package was stored on the c:\ from previous attempts and troubleshooting. Long story short, I had to rip the HDD from the VM and add a new one to set every thing back.

Creating Open Directory Replica fails with Server Admin Error Value 1127

Hallo,
I have seen a lot of similar threads here and they were helpful up to a certain point, but in the end, they did not solve my problem.
Currently, it comes down to this. The Server Admin Error message ist really meaningless and I could not find a single for the error value on the whole wide web. As such, I switched to the command line versions of the tools involved to geht more meaningful results. It worked. Specifically, creating a replica of an openldap master means using slapconfig.
When executing
slapconfig -createreplica master.ourdomain.com diradmin
as root on the prospective replica machine, I get the following error message:
ssh command failed with status 127
That command is not allowed with the root account via public key authentication.
That makes perfect sense to me, but how is it meant to work then?
Executing slapconfig as admin tells me that this tool is to be executed as root. On the other hand, root login via ssh is not allowed in Mac OS X by default, which seems fine to me. I even changed /etc/sshd_config on the Open Directory Master machine to "PermitRootLogin yes". However, neither reloading ssh using launchctl nor restarting the whole server made this setting operational. Trying to login from command line as root still tells me:
root login is not permitted to this machine via public key authentication.
While this is the current state where I need help urgently, I changed some other things before. I tell about to exclude these issues as possible reason of failure. I got this message for quite a while:
Replica Setup failed : This machine does not have a valid computer name
I was sure, this machine meant the target machine, the open directory master, because the domain had changed there once before I had taken over responsibility as an admin in this environment. And in fact, changeip disguised an issue there. The command proposed by changeip to fix the situation did not seem appropriate because this machine is multihomed with a public and a private IP adress. Proper name resolution is available for both interfaces including reverse lookup. I dont like this setup, but it was the only way to get mail service running smoothly. Running changeip on the machine itself using these arguments
changeip /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 internalIP internalIP old.ours.com current.ours.com
reported success in updating password server, open directory, both interfaces, hostconfig (which in fact did not change) and samba. It reported an issue with kadmin which is related to Kerberos (we dont use Kerberos yet).
Changing the hostname of the server using changeip did not solve the issue. I then found the hint to check with scutil. This showed that the Hostname was not set on the prospective replica machine. (A question aside: in how many place is the hostname stored? The traditional /etc/hostname has gone, but seems to be replaces with several other configuration files and databases. I cant see this as an advantage). Setting the hostname using scutil worked fine. However, it did not solve the problem either. At least, slapconfig now started to complain about not being able to log in as root instead of failing from the start.
I also checked all log files on bboth machines that might have to do with openldap, as there are /var/log/slapd.log, /var/log/system.log and /Library/Log/slapconfig.log. I also checked the log of th layer on top of openldap which is /Library/Log/DirectoryService.server.log. None of them revealed anything noticeable beside a lot of of entries that I have googled in the last few hours and which all dont seem to be associated with the problem in question.
I will take a break now, but I have to fix this until tomorrow and I hope to get the ultimate hint from you, dear reader.
Thanks and bye, Christian Völker

ssh command failed with status 127
That command is not allowed with the root account via public key authentication.
Initial OD replication takes place via 'ssh'. If you have 'sshd' configured on the OD Master to authenticate with public keys then the OD replica will not be able to communicate with the OD Master via 'ssh'. You must configure the OD Master to use 'ssh' with password authentication and root login enabled.
Demote the replica back to standalone. Stop any services that you may have running on the primary network interface. Then stop any services that you may have running on the secondary network interface. In the 'Network' System Prefpane remove the IP number from the secondary interface then deactivate the secondary network interface.
Assign the private IP address and hostname that you wish to use for the replica to the primary network interface. Assign the 'public' IP number to the secondary interface. Check the DNS to see that the IP address and hostname for the primary network interface resolve both forward and reverse for the hostname of the replica that you have chosen. If it does not, fix your DNS before proceeding.
In the 'Sharing' System Prefpane, change the name of the machine to the hostname (server.domain.tld) of the replica that you have chosen. Then use 'changeip -checkhostname' to see if the IP/hostname matches. Fix it if it doesn't.
Then configure the /etc/sshd_config file on the OD master like this:
\# Authentication:
PermitRootLogin yes
PasswordAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication no
and the /etc/ssh_config file on the OD replica like this:
PasswordAuthentication yes
PubkeyAuthentication no
Then from the OD replica as the 'root' user issue:
slapconfig -createreplica <ODMasterIPorFQDN> <diradmin user>
Make sure that the 'diradmin' user's password contains only alpha-numeric characters -no 'option-characters' or symbols, change it first if it does. Once the process completes, reactivate the secondary interface for the 'public' IP and check the configuration of services that will be using that IP, then start your other services. Secure the 'ssh' service on both machines to disable password authentication and 'root' logins.

Just had Javascript update done and now Firefox won't open,,,keeps coming up with XML Parsing error not well formed. how can I get rid of this?

also awindow pops up NS error XPC Bad convert JS cannot convert JAVASCRIPT argument arg 4 (NSL window watcher open window)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== just today ==
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; (R1 1.5))

There's a lot there, so I'll start with the parts I can answer quickly.
The "ACL found but not expected..." messages can be safely ignored, so says this article
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306925
(look below all the "SUID" examples)
I had changed my Desktop image earlier but when the "Installing 1 item" window came up it changed back to the back ground that you first see on your desktop after installation.
Leopard installs updates a bit differently. If it's simply an application that does not change system files, it installs them like before, without having to restart. If the update is to the system, then you must immediately "restart," It then goes to that stars and purple screen to perform the installation. Before, it would do the installation while you still had control of the Mac and would prompt you to restart when it finished the installation. This change probably make things more secure and reliable, because you aren't allowed to do other things on the Mac while system updates are being installed.
Please post back with the remaining point of concern.
