Window Server 2012 R2 Job Scheduler Failing.
Hi,
Currently, my company's Window Server 2012 R2 job scheduler having a problem.
Then i found out the solution at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2617046, so i download the hotfix to fix the problem. However, i get another error as below.
Please, what can i do?
Thanks
Best Regard
Vincent.
Amy,
Thanks for the tips, I follow the settings. I checked the condition and troubleshoot according to the lists you provided.
The task was configured to run only when a specified network is available. (Not set this)
The configured expiration time for the task has passed. (no expired time set)
The task is configured to ignore or queue a new task instance if a previous instance is still running. (not set this)
The task is configured not to run when the computer is on battery power. (yes, will not run when computer on battery power. will not happen because is a server all the time running AC power).
The task is configured to run only if a specific user is logged on. (must select this, if not, the scheduler will not run at all)
The task was disabled by a user. (is enabled)
The previous task instance might have been running longer than expected because a component is busy processing data. If the task is normally expected to run for this length of time, consider modifying the task triggers to take this run-time length
into consideration, or configure the task to be terminated after a preset time. (already set "Stop the task if runs longer than 3 days" and "If the running task does not end when requested, force it to stop". and "Do not start
a new instance " had been set)
Frankly, for the moment it run normally, somehow, I don't know when the incident will happen again. It seem randomly happen, and not by default. That is why kinda need the fix to fix this bug. Cannot trigger email when this incident happen.
And the schedule we run is highly critical.
Thanks.

Windows Server 2012 R2 - Join Domain fails (Active Directory)
Well guys - I don't know what to do about this problem anymore...
I set up a DC for my home network - Windows Server 2012 R2 Foundation. Everything is set up fine - DNS, AD - I suceeded joining the domain with other PCs in the network.
Problem:
When I want to join the domain "lionnet.at" it tells me that it cannot find the network address after I typed in the domain admin password.
The dns entries are fine - checked it with nslookup. The DC name is lionhead.
nslookup:
set q=srv
> set q=srv
> _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.lionnet.at
Server: lionhead.lionnet.at
Address: 10.0.0.150
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.lionnet.at SRV service location:
priority = 0
weight = 100
port = 389
svr hostname = lionhead.lionnet.at
lionhead.lionnet.at internet address = 10.0.0.150
I tried several solutions: editing the lmhosts/hosts file, deactivating IPv6, setting a static IPv4
Any ideas on this?what the hell...it was an external soundcard preventing the join...i installed it a week ago - unplugged it - "Welcome to the domain lionnet.at!"
Hi CloneBraveB,
Glad to hear that you have solved this issue and thanks for sharing in the forum. Your time and efforts are highly appreciated.
Would you please let me know the complete error message that you get when failed to join the problematic client computer to the domain?
In addition, for a test, please select another computer and install the external soundcard again, then attempt to join the computer to domain. Did you reproduce this issue?
By the way, would you please let me know more details of that soundcard?
If any update, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

In-place upgrade of Windows Server 2012 RDS to R2 fails
Hi All
I have a Server 2012 Standard RDS virtual machine (vmware) on which I have tried doing an in-place upgrade to 2012 R2 but it constantly fails.
It sits at the "Collecting files, settings and applications" process for quite a while - always on 0% and then says: Installing Windows was Canceled "Setup can't continue. Restart the computer and restart Setup. When prompted, try getting
the latest updates."
I have tried combinations of all the settings during setup to look for updates, not look for updates, etc., rebooted several times, even disabled the RDS services and still the same result.
As a test, I tried doing an in-place upgrade on the base OS installation that was used to create this VM and it works perfectly. The only difference between the servers is that the live has RDS role installed.
Is there any Microsoft documentation on the 2012 RDS in-place upgrade process to R2?
Can anyone offer any suggestion as to why the in-place upgrade might be failing with the RDS role installed?
Thanks heapsAs I stated I have already tried an in-place upgrade on the base 2012 vm that I used to create the production RDP server and it worked.
It seems that the RDS role may be preventing the upgrade?
Ideally I want to go down the in-place upgrade on the production server as we have alot of users using this machine. I would rather not have to build an R2 RDS server from scratch.
if you really think the RDS is preventing the upgrade, how about stopping the RDS service then do an in place upgrade.
check how it goes.. :)
Every second counts..make use of it. Disclaimer: This posting is provided AS IS with no warranties or guarantees and confers no rights. -
Windows Server 2012 R2 RAS Install Fails
I have a server 2012 Essentials R2 box installed and running at a client site, however when trying to configure the VPN for the client I receive an error. 'The referenced assembly could not be found. Error: 0x80073701
To narrow down the role that was causing it to fail I started to install the roles and features separately so that I could find which role was causing the error. I installed IIS and a few other bits, and when I got to installing the Remote Access
feature it fails with the above error, I have done some research on the web and found the windows update readiness tool, so I ran the elevated command 'DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth'. Upon completion this returned: 'The restore operation completed
successfully. The component store corruption was repaired. The operation completed successfully.' I also found this point in the CBS log, however the summary on there reported no errors were found?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get the installation to finish successfully? And can anyone shed any light on why this might've occurred to avoid it in future installs.
Many Thanks
Sam PadgettYou can get a free SSL Cert from Microsoft, and the VPN on Essentials uses SSTP by default which is better than PPTP.
You can always enable PPTP afterwards if you really want to, but there is no reason not to setup Essentials with the SSL considering it is free, and a lot less hassle to get other things working the way you want them.

ProClarity 6.3 PAS install fails on Windows Server 2012
We are trying to install PAS 6.3 on Windows Server 2012 and the install fails with the following error
The following requirements are missing:
Windows Server 2003 SP1
We have successfully installed on Windows Server 2008 R2, so it really isn't a Windows Server 2003 SP1 issue.
Has anyone successfully installed on Windows Server 2012? Is there a way to force the installer not to check for the OS?
Thanks.
KevinI have a PAS server running in Windows 2012, by doing exactly the same pre-requisites that you do in Windows 2008 r2 (iis, Framework, SQL ADO 2005 / 2008). With the Windows Server 2003 SP1 message you can avoid it by doing a really simple thing that
is right click the setup file --> properties, and head to the "Compatibility Tab" and run it with compatibility mode Windows 7, also run it with Admin permissions. This let you pass by the message and let you install the product. Remember, after the
installation, you need to check all the IIS config, folder permissions, that you did in Windows 2008 x64 installation. Also, the App pool needs to work with .NET 2.0 not 4.0.
Good luck!

VMM Agent install fails on Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V
Hi,
We are unable to install VMM 2012 R2 agent on Windows Server 2012 R2 server either from VMM console or manually on the hyper-v server.
Error on VMM Console:
Error (410)
Agent installation failed on chsicoecdh03.casper.com.
Fatal error during installation (0x80070643)
Recommended Action
Try the operation again. If the problem persists, install the agent locally and then add the managed computer.
==================================================================
Error on Hyper-v server:
MSI (c) (E8:D0) [16:53:24:726]: Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager Agent (x64). Product Version: 3.2.7510.0. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation. Installation success
or error status: 1603.
Also, I suspect may be issue with WMI then checked WMI repository and it is in consistent state. winmgmt /verifyrepository.
Please help on this issue.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Kumaresan LakshmananSo, I've managed to research this some more since Thursday and I've come to the conclusion that Hyper-V does a horrible job of supporting Qualcomm NIC cards. That's the only thing I can conclude as far as where the issue is originating. I've read many
post and walkthroughs but nothing that has helped. The issue wasn't with any settings in the domain controller. The issue was that there really is a slow connection originating at the domain controller that is a VM and has network connectivity through the
virtual switch from Hyper-V. So, next question is, how do I get the DC to have better connectivity through the NIC that Hyper-V won't give it? If hyper-v would allow passthrough, this would be so much simpler. VM-ware is looking really good at this point.
Im disappointed in MS right now. -
Hi,
A backup job has been setup on Windows Server 2012 (Platform: Win32NT; ServicePack: ; Version: 6.2.9200.0; VersionString : Microsoft Windows NT 6.2.9200.0) via Windows Backup Software UI (Local Backup 1.0).
It is appearing as a scheduled task "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup" belonging to user 'nt authority\system' in task scheduler.
The problem is that the Backup job never start despite the scheduled task running and completing successfully (when run automatically or manually)!
Would you be able to explain why and assist in resolving that issue?
Here is what we know:
When the backup is run manually via the Windows Backup Software UI, it works fine.
When the backup is run via command line (as set in schedule task) in a cmd command prompt (as local/domain 'administrator' or as 'nt authority\system' which is possible by running command prompt via 'PsExec.exe -i -s cmd'), something like "%windir%\System32\wbadmin.exe
start backup -templateId:{f11eb3aa-74e7-4ff4-a57b-d8d567ee3f77} -quiet", it works fine.
If you manually run the preset scheduled task while logged in as administrator, the task run and complete successfully but the backup job does not start.
Idem if you schedule task is run automatically at scheduled time.
The schedule task run and complete successfully but the backup job does not start.
It is confirmed by running the following in a command prompt as 'nt authority\system':
schtasks /run /tn "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup"
SUCCESS: Attempted to run the scheduled task "\Microsoft\Windows\Backup\Microsoft-Windows-WindowsBackup".
Despite success result, the Backup job does not start running...
No errors or warning appears anywhere in Event Logs (Microsoft > Windows > Backup or Task Scheduler) nor in the scheduled task History tab. The schedule task complete successfully but no Backup job is run...
If scheduled task automatically set by Windows Backup software is duplicated (copied) and set manually it runs fine as 'administrator' and as 'nt authority\system' (subject that 'nt authority\system' is added to the 'Backup Operators' AD group).
Here is an export of the current pre-set schedule task, is there any settings that need to be changed to make it works?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.Once again, the issue is not to run the backup manually from the command line but to have it run via the scheduled task setup by the Windows Backup software.
By default, the schedule task is to be run as NT Authority\System, and when run under this account, the backup does not start (even though account is member of Backup Operators) and job can manually be run via elevated command prompt. This is not a normal
behavior and constitute a major bug in Windows Server 2012.
From my understanding the NT Authority\System account is a built-in account from Windows that should by default be part of the Administrators group (built-in) even though it does not explicitly appears like it in AD by default.
This account shall have by default Administrators rights and Backup Operators rights (via the Administrators group) without being explicitly added to those groups (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/windows/desktop/ms684190%28v=vs.85%29.aspx). By design
it is supposed to be the most powerful account which has unrestricted access to all local system resources. If that is not the case (as it seems) then this would constitute a major bug in Windows Server 2012 edition.
As said previously and as you confirmed, currently by default NT Authority\System on Windows 2012 server cannot start backup manually via an elevated command prompt unless it is manually added to Backup Operators (or Administrators) group. But wouldn't that
constitute a bug of Windows Server 2012?
Our server has not yet been restarted since I added NT Authority\System account to the Administrators group explicitly manually so I cannot yet confirmed it would sort the issue. Indeed it is heavily in use so cannot easily be restarted. Will confirm when
done.
We also have an additional problem where after a while of last reboot, part of the Exchange ECP can no longer be properly loaded in the web browser due to compilation error (compilation is done via NT Authority\System account which seems to no longer have
sufficient right to compile .NET code). What is strange is that it works at first and then stop working at some point... I am hopeful that adding NT Authority\System to the Administrators group would sort this issue as well but once again, that shall not be
needed!!!
Could a Windows Server 2012 update introduced some security policy changes or else that prevent NT Authority\System to have full power? -
The Volume Shadow Copy service initially was running under the context of System, so we thought that ‘System’ doesn’t have permissions to access network shares.
When the Volume Shadow Copy service was running under the context of System, this was the error logged:
“failed with following error code '0x8078014B' (There was a failure in creating a directory on the backup storage location.).”
Which is likely due to not having permissions to write to the network location.
This is a scheduled backup trying to write to a network location, so we changes the service to run under the context of an account that does have permissions to write to the network share.
Then the error changed to this:
“failed with following error code '0x8078006B' (Windows Backup failed to create the shared protection point on the source volumes.).”

We aren’t really seeing anything that gives any hint on what the issue is.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!We are trying to back up folders/files from 2 local drives (C: & D:), both of which have only 10% space used, and 100 GB free.
We are attempting to back the files up to a Remote Shared File (and there is 100+ GB free space out there).
If we try another network location, we receive the exact same error.
This is Windows Server 2012, not running Hyper-V and is a physical server not a VM.
Thank you for the link.

I am attempting to distribute Adobe Flash updates using SCUP 2011, SCCM 2012 R2, WSUS ver4 and Windows Server 2012. Everything installs without error. I have acquired a certificate for SCUP signing from the internal Enterprise CA. I have
verified the signing certificate has a 1024 bit key. I have imported the certificate into the server's Trusted Publishers and Trusted Root CA stores for the computer. When I attempt to publish a Flash update with Full content I receive the following

TIAHi Joyce,
This is embarrassing, I used that very post as my guide when deploying my certificate templates, but failed to change the bit length to 2048. Thank you for being my second set of eyes.
I changed my certificate key bit length to 2048, deleted the old cert from all certificate stores, acquired the a new signing cert, verified the key length was 2048, exported the new cert to pfx and cer files, imported into my Trusted publishers

Is there a chance this content was already created and signed with the old cert, so installing the new cert has no effect? In ConfigMgr software updates I see 4 Flash updates, all marked Metadata Only (because they were originally published as "Automatic."
No Flash updates in the ConfigMgr console are marked as downloaded. I can't find any documentation on how the process of using SCUP for downloading content for an update marked Metadata Only actually works.
Comments and suggestions welcome. -
CryptDecrypt function failing on Windows Server 2012
Hi,
I have a sample program which does encryption / decryption.
This program works on Win7 and Win8.1 but fails on Windows Server 2012.
Please can somebody help me on resolving this issue?
const char KEY_FILE[255] = "C:\\key.txt";
In Constructor:
dwResult= 0;
hProv = 0;
hKey = 0;
hSessionKey = 0;
cbBlob = 0;
pbBlob = NULL;
cbBlob = file_length(KEY_FILE);
pbBlob = (BYTE*)malloc(cbBlob + 1);
memset(pbBlob, 0, cbBlob + 1);
FILE *fp = fopen(KEY_FILE, "rb");
if (fp) {
fread(pbBlob, 1, cbBlob, fp);
fclose(fp);
} else {
free(pbBlob);
pbBlob = NULL;
if (!CryptAcquireContext(&hProv, NULL, MS_DEF_PROV, PROV_RSA_FULL, 0))
dwResult = GetLastError();
if (dwResult == NTE_BAD_KEYSET)
if (!CryptAcquireContext(&hProv, NULL, MS_DEF_PROV, PROV_RSA_FULL, CRYPT_NEWKEYSET))
dwResult = GetLastError();
MessageBox("Error [0x%x]: CryptAcquireContext() failed.", "Information", MB_OK);
return;
} else {
dwResult = GetLastError();
return;
if (pbBlob) {
if (!CryptImportKey(hProv, pbBlob, cbBlob, 0, 0, &hSessionKey))
dwResult = GetLastError();
MessageBox("Error [0x%x]: CryptImportKey() failed.", "Information", MB_OK);
return;
} else {
if (!CryptImportKey(hProv, PrivateKeyWithExponentOfOne, sizeof(PrivateKeyWithExponentOfOne), 0, 0, &hKey))
dwResult = GetLastError();
MessageBox("Error CryptImportKey() failed.", "Information", MB_OK);
return;
if (!CryptGenKey(hProv, CALG_RC4, CRYPT_EXPORTABLE, &hSessionKey))
dwResult = GetLastError();
MessageBox("Error CryptGenKey() failed.", "Information", MB_OK);
return;
//{{AFX_DATA_INIT(CCryptoEncryptionDlg)
m_cipher = _T("");
m_clear = _T("Encrypt me");
When I click on Encryption Button:
UpdateData();
unsigned long length = m_clear.GetLength() +1;
unsigned char * cipherBlock = (unsigned char*)malloc(length);
memset(cipherBlock, 0, length);
memcpy(cipherBlock, m_clear, length -1);
if (!CryptEncrypt(hSessionKey, 0, TRUE, 0, cipherBlock, &length, length))
dwResult = GetLastError();
MessageBox("Error CryptEncrypt() failed.", "Information", MB_OK);
return;

unsigned long length = m_cipher.GetLength() +1;
unsigned char * cipherBlock = (unsigned char*)malloc(length);
memset(cipherBlock, 0, length);
memcpy(cipherBlock, m_cipher, length -1);
int retVal = CryptDecrypt(hSessionKey, 0, TRUE, CRYPT_DECRYPT_RSA_NO_PADDING_CHECK, (BYTE*)cipherBlock, &length);
if (!retVal)
dwResult = GetLastError();
MessageBox("Error CryptDecrypt() failed.", "Information", MB_OK);
return;
dwResult = GetLastError();
m_clear = cipherBlock;
m_cipher = "";
free(cipherBlock);
UpdateData(FALSE);
The source is from http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/11578/Encryption-using-the-Win-Crypto-API
I just got the source code from above link and compiled in VS2012. The same code works as-is in Win8.1 but fails in loading itself in Windows Server 2012.
Thanks in advance.

I use 7-zip for backups, and the SDK is open source which means it can be used in another project such a specialized backup or other tool
7-zip has the AES in the SDK which is been checked as solid.

Windows 8.1 SOFTWARE registry hive load failed on Windows Server 2012
Hello,
I am participated in custom Windwows Software backup/restore project development that requires load of Windows SOFTWARE/SYSTEM registry hives from target OS system drive connected to Windows system.
On all Windows version except Windows 8.1 program works correctly but when host system (on that programm run on) is Windows Server 2012 or Windows 8 and target system is Windows 8.1 registry hive load failed with following error:
Failed to load f:\Windows\System32\config\software: [1009] The configuration registry database is corrupt.
After run of 'chkdsk /r' error still remained. All requred security privileges (SE_BACKUP, SE_RESTORE) are applied. All systems are 64-bit.
Generally even system registry editor (regedit) could not open SOFTWARE hive from Windows 8.1 with following error:
Cannot Load f:\Windows\System32\config\software: Error while loading hive.
But when host system is Windows 7 or Windwos Server 2008 then SOFTWARE hive loaded without any problem.
So is there some Windows 8/8.1 registry hives validation mechanism or additional security checks tha prevents load of registry hives fromother OS instance?Sorry for later response. I was busy with other tasks.
The procMon tool shows RegLoadKey is failed when it tried to load the hive on Windows 8.1 (8.1 based WinPE also). On Windows 7, I didn't see the error (Shows Success instead of REGISTRY CORRUPT). Once the hive is load & unloaded on Windows 7 OS, the
check sum of the hive is changed, and I can load the updated hive with regedit in Windows 8.1 OS.

Windows Server 2012 R2 - ALL HF's Failing to install as "Does Not Apply to this computer"
Hi,
A general question about hot fix installs.
I have multiple servers that are all Windows 2012 R2. They do not have internet connections, so I have to install the Hotfixes manually. I download the HF's from the ISO download page (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/913086) every month. I collect them and install in a bulk install during a release cycle ( a couple times a year). I just realized that NO HF's have installed since JUNE 2014. Every HF that shows up in WindowsServer2012R2 directory fail to install with a message of "The update is not applicable to your computer". Which is fine if that was true, but.... I get this message for every HF from the ISO's since June 2014. NOT one HF thinks it is applicable to my computer. Could that be the case? No HF's apply to my Server 2012 systems since June of 2014?
This is my system info, and below that is the results from attempting to install 95 HF's.

My msi is a 32 bit setup.
When I install it on a 32 bit machine with Windows XP it works fine .
I tried to install it on a 64 bit machine with windows server 2008 and it succeeds
While running my setup on a 64 bit machine with Windows server 2012 R2 it failes and I get the folloawing message:
"Registry object reference not set to an instance of an object"
Then the setup exits and leaves the app partially installed
I tried searching for known problems over the net, but found nothing
I will be happy to get some advice
Thanks
LioraSounds like you are trying to update a registry object that is not there.
Is this your own msi, or is it from a third party application? If third party, check with them to see if they support it on 2012 or if they have a known workaround.
If it is your own msi, sounds like it is time to debug it.

SQL Server 2008 R2 & 2008 R2 SP1 installation fails in Windows server 2012
Hi All,
I have a strange issue here. I have a Windows server 2012 VM where i want to deploy SQL 2008 R2 Enterprise edition.
When i Run the setup every thing goes fine and during the installation wizard i get this error " The Folder path Program files contains invalid characteristics. I get this error 3 - 4 times during the installation wizard and the installation fails.
Below is the screenshot for the same.
So i checked few articles regarding the compatibility issue and found the below article and upgraded my setup to SQL 2008 R2 SP1 using the below article.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/petersad/archive/2011/07/13/how-to-slipstream-sql-server-2008-r2-and-a-sql-server-2008-r2-service-pack-1-sp1.aspx
Again i still see the same above errors and with that a new error related to a MOF File.
Below are the contents of the error logs. Can some one assist on this issue.

Gautam.75801Hi Alberto,
Still the same issue.
I installed the SQL 2008 R2 without SP1 and changed the service accounts to system account and repaired the .NET using the .NET Repair tool
Also changed the installation directory to D:\ Drive this time. Still same issue.
