I'm trying to distribute the SCCM 2007R3 client to our Windows 7 (64-bit, although issue may exist with 32-bit platform) computers. The GPO installs ccmsetup.msi as expected, and there is a CCMSETUP service running, and the ccmsetup is able to determine its site code. The tail end of the C:\windows\ccmsetup\ccmsetup.log file: <![LOG[Downloading file x64\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe]LOG]!><time="17:10:33.123+300" date="06-09-2011" component="ccmsetup" context="" type="1" thread="560" file="ccmsetup.cpp:5162"> <![LOG[Downloading C:\Windows\CCMSetup\x64\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe to C:\Windows\ccmsetup\WindowsUpdateAgent30-x64.exe]LOG]!><time="17:10:33.123+300" date="06-09-2011" component="ccmsetup" context="" type="1" thread="560" file="ccmsetup.cpp:5259"> <![LOG[Failed to access source file (3).

I can start a shell running as nt authority\system and view files in \\SERVER\sms_csd\Client\x64 (CSD is the site code).

Could you please check if the file is not corrupted on the site itself? Does it install when kicked off manually from that share?Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de

Ok, that's half the problem...the file was indeed corrupt and would not install properly. I downloaded a new copy of that component from Microsoft's download website that was able to install. Now I can install the client when running msiexec /i \\SERVER\sms_csd\bin\i386\ccmsetup.msi Unfortunately, the GPO distribution doesn't seem to work. There is an entry in HKCR\Installer\Products for the SMS Client Bootstrap product, which tells me SOMETHING got installed...but unfortunately there is no c:\windows\ccmsetup directory or ccmsetup service to kick off the client installation. There is a record of the msi installation in the Windows->Application eventlog exiting with error code zero. Any suggestions for where to look into why the GPO is failing to install this product? John

More on this issue: I found where enable MSI logging for applications being installed via GPO at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc775423%28WS.10%29.aspx Here's a snippet of the InstallFinalize stage. It appears to be failing to install via GPO because (from what I can make of this) ExecuteCCMSetupEXE is failing during the install process (go down to [15:22:42:846] for that error message), perhaps due to Am I having trouble with ccmsetup.exe not being copied over to the client computer here? The following have already been done: - add SMSSITECODE=<site> in Active Directory Group Policy, as documented at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb632469.aspx - create a GPO to install \\SMSSVR\sms-<site>\bin\i386\ccmclient.msi as detailed at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb633010.aspx MSI (s) (2C:68) [15:22:41:979]: Invoking remote custom action.

This I don't understand. I was trying to *install* the product--why would it report a successful uninstall? I'm concerned the initial MSI is installing, can't find ccmsetup.exe or another file, then uninstalls something. John
