I’m having the same exact issue with the updates. It’s been bugging me all morning. Let me know if you find a solution and I’ll do the same if I figure out what is going on.

 

Hi,

I'm finally able to devote myself to building a new CM 2007 R2/MDT image and I've made great leaps and bounds but am stuck again...

General (stupid?) question: how does one review logs like smsts.log in PE when they are still "in use" by the TS? I know I've been able to at some points in the past, but lately when I get stuck on something I can't always access the logs I want to see. Do you just kill all the TS processes after the TS errors out?

Specific question: I know I have network connectivity (ipconfig/ping) and client/server communication (Install Software tasks work OK), but I can only get Software Updates to install on my reference image if I set the Site Code and join the domain. I have smsslp and smsmp specified in the setup properties (tried with FQDN and with short name), and Software Updates were still timing out until I specified the Site Code and set it to join the domain. That would be OK with me, but then sysprep fails at capture, I think because of our complex password requirement from Group Policy, so I guess I need to get it working with joining a Workgroup. The only other chatter I can find about this issue is the need to set smsslp and smsmp... what else could I have messed up?

Thanks.
