I am currently trying to distribute a package to a distribution point on a child primary site. The package was created at the CSS, and when I add distribution points on other SSS throughout the infrastructure the package copies with no issues. I have been able to copy packages to this distribution point before, but recently have had issues where the status hangs at "Install Retrying".
Below is the error message I receive:
SMS Distribution Manager failed to process package "5252 - MetaVance U30" (package ID = 000007E3).
Possible cause: Distribution manager does not have access to either the package source directory or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that distribution manager can access the package source directory/distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files with long file names and the total length of the path exceeds the maximum length supported by the operating system.
Solution: Reduce the number of folders defined for the package, shorten the filename, or consider bundling the files using a compression utility.
Possible cause: There is not enough disk space available on the site server computer or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that there is enough free disk space available on the site server computer and on the distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files that might be in use by an active process.
Solution: Close any processes that maybe using files in the source directory. If this failure persists, create an alternate copy of the source directory and update the package source to point to it.
Obviously I have checked all listed possible causes along with the typical delete, refresh, and update - I have also changed the DP to unprotected, as well as tried to add the DP from both the CSS and the Child primary site. The SMS_DESPOOLER component is giving successful return messages for the package.
Any info / ideas / help would be appreciated.
