I loaded 4 captured images into SCCM via the Add Operating System Image Wizard 2 months ago.I have sincecaptured another image to the same location (which is the SCCM site server) and tried to add it to the server.I am getting errorthe specified UNC path does not contain a valid WIM file or you do not have permission to access it. please specify a valid pathnothing has changed on the site server that i can think of.i am domain admin and permissions have not changed.anyone got any answers?please help i am baffled

Might be a stupid question/answer.. You have not by any chance mounted that wimfile, because that would cause that exact message..Michaelhttp://kongkuba1.spaces.live.com

noi have tried adding the same wim files that are already imported.i have also re-captured new wim files and tried to add themi have tried to reload the image of an existing operating system image and that doesn't work either.i am also unable to add more wim files for boot images.it seems as though the server doesn't recognise Wim files or something...

sounds like your permissions are wrong so. verify that the network permissions are correct, check event viewer and see are there any failures for accessing that file, server 2008 will show the errors, server 2003 will have to be configured somy SCCM step by step Guides > http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1064

permissions have not changed since original install.i have created new folder and shared with everyone having full permissions.i have also tried loading the wim file from my local machine with no lucki have sccm server running on windows 2008

can you explain what you mean by this please ? "i have also tried loading the wim file from my local machine with no luck"my SCCM step by step Guides > http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1064

this means that i have copied the wim file to my local machine and i have a share setup there.then when i try and use the wizard and point to my share on my local machine it gives me the same error.

can you test with a new WIM file please, it's failing in two separate network locations which either means network permissions are bad or wim is bad, or bothmy SCCM step by step Guides > http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1064

i have tried with the existing wim files, and also 2 new ones. I am unable to add a new boot wim file as well.

if you try as Domain Admin what happens ?my SCCM step by step Guides > http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1064

i am a domain admin, still doesn't work

I have fixed the issues!!I contacted MS, and the first thing they told me was to try mounting the image to make sure the WIM files were valid----- Yes they were.then they told me to install the WAIK latest version.I uninstalled the Kit and reinstalled the latest and bingo bongo boingo!!works again.excellent!!thanks Microsoft

I am having similer issues. Win 2003 SP2 - SCCM2007 SP2 R2 single site with MDT2010 intergrated but can not get a MDT2010 TS Captured WIM to import into SCCM OS Images "Invalid WIM". allso i tried to mount the MDT WIM image without luck (Invalid Image). however a SCCM TS will Capture and I can Import it into OS Images. it seems like something is amiss with MDT or WAIK possibly.
