SCCM2007 R2 tasksequence failed: "Content location request for PackageID failed. (Code 0x80040103)

Hi All
I have a lab setup with a single SCCM server configured. I am facing problem in executing a Task Sequence (this is my first TS) as and when i run it it throws below error: 
A0100002 is the boot wim.
<http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/getfile/438124>
The SMSTS log shows below error:
<http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/getfile/438126>
Also log has an entry as [Found 0 DPs in subnet, 1 DPs in local site, 0 DPs in remote location and 0 Multicast DPs] , the boundary has been set to AD site.
I have already tried to make another DP and distribute the wim, but it still endup with same error. But i am able to run normal s/w advertisements.
Please let me know what could be the issue.
Thank you
Regards Ram

Hi,
Have you configured a Network access account? Ohterwise it will fail to connect to the DP, Make sure that the password is correct as well.

  • Content Location request for PACKAGE failed (Code 0x80040102) - How to determine list of DP's returned from the MP

    Hi there
    So, existing SCCM 2012 environment, OSD functioning at other sites, been in use for a while.
    New location, new DP.  PXE boot system, choose the task sequence, and I get the error that the package is not found.
    Look at the SMSTS.log and sure enough I see the 0x80040102 error.  
    I have :
    Removed the offending package and redistributed it.  Verified it is present on the server.
    Verified the boundary has the server as a site system.
    Verified the boundaries have the correct IP range, and the correct Site.
    I have tried it with just a Site boundary and just a IP Range boundary.
    Created a copy of my TS, removed the offending package, deployed.  Same error, just with a different package ID (which tells me that it isn't the package, it is something on the server DP itself).
    Rebooted both the Site server and the DP.
    I'm kind of at a loss, as I would expect to see the DP show up in the below log as a DP, but I don't see it.  It looks like it gets policy, and it shows under the content location request Local: 1 (which I believe says it sees 1 local content location),
    but further below in the log it says Processing 0 Locations.
    Very confused.
    Thanks for any help...

    It was not just driver packages, it was whatever package was next in line in the Task Sequence.
    The issue got even more strange...I added a DP from my central location to the boundary group of the site that was failing.
    Now it pulls from the local DP.
    If I remove the DP from my central location (that is not local to the failing site), then it stops working again.

  • Request for sample ZXRSRU01 code-  pass to VKF

    Hello,
    I wrote an earlier mssg but I fear I may have been too complicated in my request.
    I would like to pull a BEx variable user entry in and use it to calculate a key figure.
    I have the virtual KF code working fine.
    I just need help pulling the user value in.
    The variable is a single value entry. So I am unsure about the high/low range that I see in most examples.
    My include is setup as follows-
    *how would I write the code to pull the user entry?
    DATA: L_S_RANGE TYPE RSR_S_RANGESID.
    DATA: LOC_VAR_RANGE LIKE RRRANGEEXIT.
    REFRESH e_t_range.
    *- Steps
    CASE i_step.
      WHEN '2'.
        CASE i_vnam.               " Variable name
      When 'VariableTech_name'.
         <insert code to pull here>
    ENDCASE.
    Additional questions:
    1) Is there a way to turn off the filtering of the user entered variable? I would prefer to only use it to just pass the info to CMOD rather than filter out data on the report.
    2) Do I need to create special BEx variable? (customer exit, etc) Or will any work with this?
    Thank you very much.
    - Brandon

    Hi KJ,
    Thx for the quick reply!
    In the code example-
    and 'MONTH' represents the variable tech name that we are pulling. And 'CUMMONTH' represents the place we are passing it to?
    Is this correct? Then calculations are done in BEx.
    I would like to do calculations in ZXRSRF02.
    If my infoobject is defined as <ZNEWEST> in my virtual KF code-  How do I get it passed to ZXRSRF02?
    I would like to take user entry and pass it to <ZNEWEST> infoobject in my VKF code.
    Here is my code as I translated it from the example:
      WHEN '2'.
        CASE i_vnam.               " Variable name
          WHEN 'ZNEWEST'.
          Loop at I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO LOC_VAR_RANGE
               WHERE VNAM = 'NEWTSK'.
            Clear L_S_RANGE.
            L_S_RANGE-LOW      = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW(4).
            L_S_RANGE-LOW+4(2) = '01'.
            L_S_RANGE-HIGH     = LOC_VAR_RANGE-LOW.
            L_S_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'.
            L_S_RANGE-OPT      = 'BT'.
            APPEND L_S_RANGE to E_T_RANGE.
            EXIT.
          ENDLOOP.
    Thx!

  • Request for C++ ExtractorProcessor code snippets

    Hi,
    Does anyone have any C++ code snippets of using the ExtractorProcessor?
    I'm trying to implement an ExtractorProcessor in C++ - I have created a ValueExtractor and I can create the ExtractorProcessor from that, but the compiler gives me an error when I try to invoke it
    Error     6     error C2665: 'coherence::lang::TypedHandle<T>::TypedHandle' : none of the 4 overloads could convert all the argument types     c:\dcs_systems\test\trunk\ThirdParty\Components\coherence_3_7_1_x86\include\coherence\lang\TypedHolder.hpp     205     D3ContextCache
    This is my call
    int CacheD3ContextRepository::getD3ContextState(int call_id) const
         Integer32::View vKey = Integer32::create(call_id);
         ValueExtractor::View vStateExtractor =
              COH_MANAGED_BOX_EXTRACTOR(Integer32::View, CacheD3Context, getState);
         ExtractorProcessor::Handle vStateFetcher = ExtractorProcessor::create(vStateExtractor);
         Integer32::View vState;// = _cache->invoke(vKey, vStateFetcher);
         return *vState;
    Essentially I have CacheD3Context object but I don't want to read back the whole object just the state field.
    I have been told that something called a 'ReducerAggregator' is a better way of doing this but I haven't been able to find this yet.
    Thanks
    Joe
    Edited by: 841803 on 09-Apr-2013 00:55

    Hi Joe,
    The invoke method returns an Object::Holder, which will need to be cast to the extracted type:
    int CacheD3ContextRepository::getD3ContextState(int call_id) const
        Integer32::View              vKey            = Integer32::create(call_id);
        ValueExtractor::View         vStateExtractor = COH_MANAGED_BOX_EXTRACTOR(Integer32::View, CacheD3Context, getState);
        ExtractorProcessor::Handle   vStateFetcher   = ExtractorProcessor::create(vStateExtractor);
        Integer32::View              vState          = cast<Integer32::View>(_cache->invoke(vKey, vStateFetcher));
        return *vState;
        }Note that when the extraction will be performed server side, the above extractor will be evaluated as a ReflectionExtractor in java, and will invoke the java getState method. This implies you'll need the CacheD3Context (or equivalent) java class in the classpath of your cache servers. If this is not an option then have a look at PofExtractor.
    thanks,

  • Internet or Intranet Clients - Content Location

    Our current Configuration Manager 2012 R2 environment is running with existing servers and clients in intranet mode. We are wanting to add a server in our DMZ to support internet only mode for our DMZ servers.  Additionally, we are contemplating leveraging
    this new server to support laptops in an "Internet or Intranet" configuration as described here: 
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/bb693755.aspx
    My question is regarding content location for these "Internet or Intranet" clients.  If the client is offsite (so the intranet servers are viewed as offline) and the content is available on the server setup to support internet clients, obviously
    the client will download the content from the internet server.   However, should we be distributing all of the content that is available to the intranet servers to the internet server?  If an "internet or intranet" client receives policy
    for a package who's source is only available from an intranet server does the deployment completely fail when the client is offsite....or does the client wait until the content is available from an intranet server?
    Also, if you have a link to documentation of this, that would be great.
    Thanks!

    There's no documentation describing this exact scenario. The client sends a content location request to its MP but if the necessary content is not on the Internet facing DP when the client is connected via the Internet, then the content location
    request will fail. The client will periodically retry the content location request including when the client sees that it has changed network locations and so this will eventually succeed once the client is on the Intranet again. So, effectively, yes
    the client will wait till its on the Intranet -- it doesn't really have a choice though.
    What implications are you worried about here?

  • Anticipating content lookup requests

    We're in the process of trying to roll out OSD to production. Too many content location requests can peg the MP.
    We're aware of CPU spikes related to large numbers of content lookup requests associated primarily with software update deployments. Of primary concern is when we make updates available to 20,000 computers.
    What we see is that even when we deploy the content to the collection off hours (say 1am) , the desktops will download content off-hours. Then, beginning around 8am we see a steady progression in the number of clients checking in. What we are trying to work
    towards is being able to predict how many content lookups we anticipate at any given points.
    We know that at any minute where we attempt to process more than 3,000 content lookups in the same minute, the SQL processor gets pegged, and the MP log states a timeout - which could potentially impact OSD.
    Has anyone else attempted to track when clients enter the environment, how many content location requests are placed per minute/hour etc?  <cough cough> GARTH JONES? </cough cough> We can attempt to archive the SQL table with the policy
    timestamp, and check for differences, but this is not necessarily a reflection of whether you needed content or not. I am not aware of any way to track content location requests short of trying to logscrape mp_Location.log..
    If this was possible, the next step would be to try and say 'collections X has 12,000 machines, Y has 3000 machines, and Z has 200 machines, so we expect 15,200 machines to request content on Monday morning. Based on historical averages, we expect x . minute,
    with the threshold of 3,000/minute being exceeded between 8:54am and 9:09am. '
    Thoughts?
    Will

    None if there are no active deployments for all clients ;-)
    You cannot really predict that as there are too many variable parameters. Plus it's not only content location requests that put load on the MP / SQL.
    Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de
    Funny guy.
    We are being asked to be able to predict when anticipated load will exceed the SQL ability to process all requests without any SQL timeouts, so we will patch something together - was just hoping someone else had already started trying to do something similar.

  • Safari crashes on launch -- but Request for Help fails to post...

    For a week, I've tried to post a message,to the "Safari for Mac" forum. But it fails to post.
    Instead, I get a message, advising "We'll be right back".
    Other people have been posting messages during this week -- so what's wrong with mine?
    My message is a request for a solution to my problem of Safari crashing immediately on launch.
    The message includes a Safari Crash Report, which is quite detailed (as a textEdit file, compressed Archive, it runs to 29KB).
    Hoping that this brief plea gets through. TIA.

    The problems are caused by third party input managers/enhancers that have not yet been updated by their developers to comply with the standards used by Safari 4.1.and/or Safari 5.
    In your case these are:

007f4000 /Library/InputManagers/Ecamm/Ecamm Plugin Loader.bundle/Contents/MacOS/Ecamm Plugin Loader

    You fill find them in one or either of these folders:
    Home/Library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/library/Input Managers
    Hard Disk/Library/Application Support
    although the exact location is indicated in your crash report as quoted above - look under 'Binary Images'.
    Close Safari and delete them, then restart Safari and it should be working normally. Alternatively drag them to the desktop and restart Safari. then add them back one at a time, restarting Safari every time, until you find the one (or more) causing the crash.
    Check with the developers of the plug-in/s in question for updates that are Safari 5 compliant.

Both Calendar and iCal for the Mac support the display of and interaction with multiple accounts and datastores, for example, iCloud, On My Mac, Exchange, Google, and so on.

    You can make the iCloud calendar your default calendar for all new events. In Calendar on OS X Mountain Lion, choose Calendar > Preferences > General, or in OS X Lion, choose iCal > Preferences > Generaland under the Default Calendar heading, select one of the Calendars under the iCloud heading. Close the Preferences window to save this change.
    If recent changes simply don't appear, try forcing Calendar or iCal to refresh by selecting Refresh All from theCalendar menu.
    Make sure your account was successfully created in Calendar on your Mac (or iCal). After upgrading to iCloud Calendar, you may need to quit and reopen Calendar (or iCal). To confirm your account is configured correctly in iCal:
    Open Calendar (or iCal).
    Open Calendar (or iCal) Preferences.
    Click Accounts. You should see an account with your iCloud member name entered.
    Turn iCloud Calendars off and back on

    Open System Preferences and choose iCloud.
    Replace the checkmark next to Calendars.
    Close System Preferences.
    Open Calendar (or iCal) and test to see if the issue has been resolved.
    Restart your computer. This may sound simple, but it does reinitialize your network and application settings and can frequently resolve issues.
    Take care,

  • ICal error "400" the request for account fail!!

    iCal on my Macbook keeps on popping up with the following:
    The server responded with an error.
    The request for account “myemail (at) yahoo.com” failed.
    The server responded with
    “400”
    to operation CalDAVCalendarSplitDualTypeCalendarQueueableOperation.
    I don't even have a calendar account with my yahoo account, since I use my gmail and iCloud calendar. I went into system preferences and made certain the "calendars" option was unchecked for my yahoo account in the Internet Accounts page. Nonetheless, iCal pops up with the same error message multiple times within the hour. I'm not sure why iCal is even requesting for my yahoo calendar, since I have never used it in iCal since day one. Any ideas?

    Just out of curiosity, did you install FileZilla recently? The install comes with malware called Speedial. You may have noticed that your default search engine in all browsers is set to Yahoo, and furthermore impossible to override via the normal course of action.
    Removing Yahoo from local apps is easier than resetting them. All I had to do was delete the (added without my consent) Yahoo account from System Preferences, and the iCal Yahoo calendar disappeared momentarily.
