Hi
I'm trying to deploy Office Communicator 2007 with the MSI-File, the patch with the msp-file and the mui also an msi file.
I do this with a task sequence.
I tested the deployment a couple of times and it worked all the time.
Now I deployed the package to our clients this are xp sp3 and vista sp1 clients.
The deployment worked for about 2 hours. The notebook who where online at this time they received the package.
So I was able to update approximately the half of all clients.
But now every notebook who receive the deployment will get the same error massage:
1. The program for advertisement has not yet startet -> that is normal
2. Advertisement was received -> that is normal
3. Progarm started for advertisement (Command line: "C:\Windows\system32\CCM\TSLauncher.exe") -> also normal
4. The program for advertisement "XXX" failed ("BMA0014D" -"*") -> Then the advertisement has finished and no software is installed.
Here the error message:
The program for advertisement "BMA202BD" failed ("BMA0014D" - "*"). A failure exit code of 257 was returned. User context: AUTORITE NT\SYSTEM Possible cause: Systems Management Server (SMS) determines status for each program it executes. If SMS cannot find or correlate any installation status Management Information Format (MIF) files for the program, it uses the program's exit code to determine status. An exit code of 257 is considered a failure. Solution: For more information on the exit code, refer to the documentation for the program you are distributing.
BMA0014D is the ID of the Task sequence.
So I was searching on the internet but I didn't found anything about the "exit code of 257"
Why does it worked for 2 hours and now I receive the error message?
I tried to update the software packages on the distribution point. But I still get the same error.
Then i tried to create the advertisement new. But it still doesn't work.
The advertisement run time is set to "as soon as possible". The expire time isn't set.
Where is the problem?
I have no idea.
Thanks for your quick respond.
