Now i am running the pre req and i have done all that it wanted me to resolve but even after doing that i am still not passing. BITS and WebDav are installed but pre req tells me that are not Also have a .NET warning which reads This software update addresses a browse dialog box error that might occur when the Configuration Manager console is installed on computers with 64-bit microprocessors. This update should be applied only to computers experiencing this particular issue. More information about this update is available at: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=98350. Any ideas as to how i can resolve this as from what i can see everything is in place Thanks in advance

The webdav part can be tricky. You have to confiure it on the default website not at the top level. If you did that it should work. John Marcum | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jmarcum |

Thanks mate. Have you got any links for what i need to configure for WebDav? I am running R2 and see that WebDav is a role feature So i have BITS and WebDav installed but if you have any info on what i need to do extra that would be great. Cheers Craig

Hi, It is at this article http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc431377.aspx

Thanks mate its driving me mad as i have been through all the docs and still it does not want to work. I have been using SMS 2003 for years and its things like this that pissed me off. i was hoping SCCM would be easier grrrrrrrr

Check out this article - http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2010/10/26/error-the-webdav-server-extension-is-either-not-installed-or-not-configured-properly-in-configuration-manager-2007.aspxKent Agerlund | http://scug.dk/ | The Danish community for System Center products

I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling BITS and WebDav. John Marcum | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jmarcum |

Thanks guys. i am rebuilding my VM right now. I am going to install windows and SQL , full patch it and then create a VMWare snapshot so that if i need to roll back i can to a point where i can start again quickly. hopefully i will get it up and running but this will be my 3rd attempt

Ok so this is resolved. The issue was that i did not add IIS 6 WMI Compatibility Grrrrrr but at least now my pre req are now fine

Glad you solved it. I bet you never make that mistake again. It may have been a bit frustrating but you learned something so that's good John Marcum | http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/jmarcum |
