Uninstallation of SCVMM2012 SP1 fails with error 1603

Hi all,
I have the following situation - a single box with SQL2012, SCOM 2012 SP1 and SCVMM2012 SP1 (connected). As I am upgrading to VMM 2012 R2, I had to uninstall the VMM 2012 SP1. The issue is that the SP1 setup fails with error 1603. Before uninstalling
I removed the VMM rollup update (there was only one installed). Here is part of the vmmserver.log file I think is somewhat relevant:
MSI (s) (40:F4) [21:33:23:983]: Invoking remote custom action. DLL: C:\Windows\Installer\MSI12C7.tmp, Entrypoint: DisableWsmanCredSSP
Action start 21:33:23: DisableWsmanCredSSP.
CustomAction DisableWsmanCredSSP returned actual error code 1603 (note this may not be 100% accurate if translation happened inside sandbox)
I tried the following cmdlet - disable-wsmancredssp -role server and
disable-wsmancredssp -role client but setup still fails with the same error.
I hope someone can enlighten me regarding this as now I don't have any VMM working :D
Thanks in advance!

I too am seeing this error. I was using Windows 2012 Server with SQL2012 installed locally. I had installed SCVMM 2012 with SP1 included, then applied Update Rollup 2. No further URs had been installed. The SCOM 2012 SP1 console was
installed on this system for SCVMM/SCOM integration.
I was attempting to upgrade to VMM 2012 R2, so I chose to uninstall VMM server but retain the database. I too had to uninstall UR2 due to experiencing problems described here:

The Error 1603 usually occurs due to insufficient privileges.
Try the following steps:

> Disable all Non-Microsoft Startup Services. (Ref : http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/disable-startup-items-services-windows.html )
> Disable all the Antivirus softwares like CA, Norton,Mc Afee etc. temporarily from the computer.
Reboot and try installing in the new enabled Admin user account and check.

ConfigMgr 2012 Agent Installation permanently failed with Error 1603

We have some clients, where the agent must be reinstalled. But it fails permanently with Error 1603. I have tried the following steps allready:
Delete the CCMSETUP and CCM Folder and start from scratch
Repair WMI by deleting root\ccm
Recreated the WMI Repository
Register all *.dll and *.mof in WBEM
Cleaned up with the ccmclean Tool
We use SCCM 2012 SP1 CU3
The error happens on Vista and Windows 7
From the logs, it looks that something went wrong with the ccmexec service, but I'm not sure. In the Eventlogs are some entries from the Search Service that the Service unexpectly stopped. But not much more.

Has anybody came around this behavior?
Kind regards Stefan Somogyi

CCMClean.exe is not supported for ConfigMgr 2012, but I guess that you know that :)
Have you tried 'ccmsetup.exe /uninstall', wait for it to complete and then install again?
Perhaps the steps taken in the last comment from this thread can help you:

SCCM 2012 - Project 2010 Standard deployment failed with error 1603

Hi everyone,
I’m in the progress to roll out a software deployment via SCCM 2012, it’s to remove the current Project 2010 Professional we installed and reinstall the Standard version. We got a task sequence for the job, which is Reboot>Un-install Project 2010 Pro>Reboot>Install
Project 2010 Std.
The Un-installation process uses this command: setup.exe /uninstall PrjPro /config "PrjPro.WW\uninstall.xml"
The Installation process uses this command: setup.exe /adminfile project_silent_install.MSP
But the deployment result is quite random, some of the PCs would succeed without any issue, some of them with fail at the installation process with 1708/1603 error. As far as I know we use standard Win 7 64bits SOE across the environment, so everyone should
have same system baseline.
I reviewed some of the failed Project 2010 Standard installation logs as it shows the following:

Can onyone enlighten me what's went wrong, and why did I get this inconsitent installation behaviour?
Thank you very much!!!

1603 means there is a fatal error during installation process.
Take a look at the article below. It may help on finding cause.
Hi Juke,
I did do fair a bit of Googling before I started the post. I have increased the logging level on one of the machines failed on the installation. Apparently Project installation log doesn't throw the "return value 3", I think it's pointing to a particular
updating item, anyone knows what is it?

Adobe Acrobat XI Standard 11.0.10 silent install failing with error 1603

Hello
I just updated my AIPs for Adobe Acrobat Pro 11 Pro and Standard. The Pro silent install is working fine. But I cannot get the Standard install to run on Windows 7 or WIndows 8. I have gone over every detail that I can think of or find on forums.
I use the Adobe Customization Wizard XI and choose the basic stuff to create my transform. I don't generally enter a serial number in the customization setup but I tried that and the installation did appear to complete successfully. But when I tried to open Acrobat it did not work. Processes like PDapp.exe where running in a loop but never stopped. Without a serial I get the errors below and the install fails almost immediately. I have recreated the API and transform a few times hoping it would help.
Installing with the following line msiexec /i "%~dp0AcroStan.msi" TRANSFORMS=AcroStan.mst /qb /L*v c:\acrobat.log I get an error message that just says "error".
Application Event logs
Product: Adobe Acrobat XI Standard -- error.
Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: Adobe Acrobat XI Standard. Product Version: 11.0.10. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Adobe Systems. Installation success or error status: 1603.
When I run the AcroStan.msi by itself the installation completes successfully so it would appear the issue is in customization process or the .mst file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

I'm assuming that verbose logging is accomplished by adding /L*v c:\acrobat.log ? No, I do not have CustomAction AAMIU_Install.196A45B3_0387_4DF9_9420 in my log file. The only items referencing 1603 are below.

Hi,
How about MicrosoftPolicyPlatformSetup.msi.log ?
There is a similar problem in the blog below. You could have a look.

Installation failed with error code 1603

Hi all,
while installing the configuration manager clients on a system manually, we came across this ERROR:
installation failed with error code 1603
Do anyone has any idea how can this be resolved. Several posts suggest its a problem related to client push installation method, but since I am installing the configuration manager clients manually, so I mush not be affected by anything related to Client Push Installation. However, be noted that client push installation is well configured on the server, there are certain computers where the client is not getting installed so we are installing the clients MANUALLY to those systems,
Any help and suggestions would be higly appreciated.
Regards,
Naveed

I have encountered the Error 1603/1602 while installing the HCKInstall\Client\Setup.exe on several machines. It appears to be generic at first, but it's not. The error code is being passed from the Service back to the MSI. It means that a service failed
to start. The key is that it happens at the very end of the installation and then does the rollback. The solution is to figure out which service failed and then remove it and the directories.
Here is what I did.
I created batch to kick off before I install the client now. It basically checks for installed HCK products and if there uninstalls them. Then checks for the state of each service and if running stops the service before attempting to remove the HCK/WLK leftovers.
Then it removes the sticky directory.

SCCM software installation failed with error for 1603

Dear all
I was trying to deploy Open Office 4.1.0 using SCCM.
As per many threads the issue might be with the MSI. but I could not figure out.
Please help me.
install fails with error code 1603
-sumeet

is this application failure or client installation failure ? with just one error code,difficult to find the exact issue. 1603 is generic error that refers to Fatal error during installation. Are you sure that the command line what you have used is correct
and is working manually ?
Check the logs for additional information that might help to trace the problem.

SCOM 2012 SP1 "Task invocation failed with error code -2146232576"

Hi,
I`m trying to discover a Linux RHEL 5.9 Server which is in another untrusted domain and from the Discovery wizard I receive the following error:
Task invocation failed with error code -2146232576. Error message was 0x80131700.
Any ideas ?
Greetings.

Hi,
@Simon, I restart the SCOM services and I also verify the UAC and it's disabled.
@Mai Ali, thank you for you reply. I don't have a "&" symbol in my password, but only a "$" ..I hope it's fine.
If the SCOM discovery doesn't work, I installed the agent manually on the Linux server.
BTW I also use a "monuser" account configured using this procedure:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/7375.configuring-sudo-elevation-for-unix-and-linux-monitoring-with-system-center-2012-operations-manager.aspx
I also verify the ports 22 and 5723 and are opened, but I also noticed that if you restart the scxadmin, is listening on HTTPS on port 1207.
Now..if I try to re-discover the Linux server from SCOM, I receive the following error:
"The pool managing the instance is not available or the location monitoring object cannot be found"
Regards.

Office 2013 SP1 fails with code 17302 - SCCM 2007 R2

Hi,
I am trying to deploy Office 2013, along with SP1, in the following order:
1. Prompt to close all office apps and continue (vbs)
2. Installation of Office 2013, using modified msp.
3. Restart
4. Installation of SP1 with command line /passive /norestart.
I am doing this all through a package I created in SCCM 2007 R2.
The first few programs works well. However, when the installation of SP1 starts, SCCM launches the program, then SP1 fails with code 17302.
Manual installation, through command prompt, with the same switches works fine.
The error is only when remotely deploying.
The system is Windows 7 X86 with latest SP.
Please help!

Hi,
Have you checked the log file? Does it say anything there? Also, where is the SP1 installation file stored? Since this only happens while remotely deploying, check the network or the setting of your filewall.
By the way, you can slipstream Service Pack 1 with your Office 2013 installation media, Office 2013 will be directly installed at Service Pack 1 level, saving you the trouble of applying it afterwards. For the details, please refer to this article:

It's recommended to download and install

SSIS 2012: SSIS Error Code "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009.

Hi,
This is kind of weird issue that I am experiencing with excel connection manager in SSIS 2012. This issue occurs sometimes but when I close and re-open SSDT (SQL Server Data Tools - newer BIDS) then this issues goes off temporarily.
Just FYI, through SSDT environment I executed the package successfully with both settings Run64bit runtime setting to Yes and No when error does not occur.
So far I have installed
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255 (Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable).
I still remember for older versions of SQL Server (2005 & 2008) that I have executed Excel connection SSIS packages with Run64bit runtime = false i.e. in 32-bit mode. As far as I know I think Excel 64-bit issue has been resolved with SQL Server
2012 release.
Here is the detail of error message:
TITLE: Package Validation Error
Package Validation Error
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Error at Data Flow Task [Excel Source [2]]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection
Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
Error at Data Flow Task [SSIS.Pipeline]: Excel Source failed validation and returned error code 0xC020801C.
Error at Data Flow Task [SSIS.Pipeline]: One or more component failed validation.
Error at Data Flow Task: There were errors during task validation.
Error at Package [Connection manager "Excel Connection Manager"]: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft Access Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Unspecified error".
(Microsoft.DataTransformationServices.VsIntegration)
Here are my environment details:
SQL Server 2012 {Microsoft SQL Server 2012 (SP1) - 11.0.3368.0 (X64) } , Excel 2010 (32-bit). I am developing SSIS code on Virtual desktops with Windows 7 32-bit OS.
Also it occurred to me that since Virtual Desktops are on Shared Infrastructure, the source files and SSIS packages (code) can be on Shared drives for e.g. \\<Corpnet>\userdata\<Corp_Users_Grp>\<Username>\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\Integration
Services Project2\Integration Services Project2\Package.dtsx.
Does this kind of Shared drives have any impact to give this issue?
Thanks in advance!
Ketan
P.S.: I had look at this forum question -->
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/903bbe1d-e070-4c43-9d3b-0a5193550029/64bit-error-in-excel-connection-manager-in-ssis

Hi Arthur,
Thanks for your response.
Yes, it looks like SSIS still has bunch of issues with Excel files like as follows:
1) Some times excel source files cannot be parsed by excel source connection manager.
2) For derive column conversion, we can't replace the existing column. rather, we have to add the derived column as " add as new column" which is tough to manage while destination mapping.
3) If an column in excel contains a data which is not of the data type assigned for the column in excel, the excel source reads that data as "null". For the same, we can't validate the data and redirect the erroneous data in reject file. <-- For
this we tried IMEX setting also
4) In multi-tab/sheet excel file, excel source is unable to detect a tab and identify the metadata of the excel.
I am also checking Microsoft connect for Excel issues with SSIS 2012(https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/SearchResults.aspx?SearchQuery=excel#&&PageIndex=22
As worst case scenario, I am thinking of converting Excel to CSV file or Flat text file. (http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2772/importing-data-from-excel-using-ssis--part-2/).
Do you think it is advisable to convert Excel into CSV or Flat file.
Thanks,
Ketan
