SMSCACHEDIR location
Hi all
in my
client push installation properties -> installation properties
we have SMSSITECODE=MCS SMSCACHEDIR="D:\SCCM" SMSMP=https://sccmserver.com
whan i t try to install it manually ,no matter what i put in the command it ignore it & try installing the SMSCACHEDIR in drive D
example
ccmsetup.exe /MP:https://sccmserver.com SMSSitecode=mcx SMSCACHEDIR="C:\SCCM"
in the ccmsetup.log
we get MSI: Invalid Drive: D:\
in the command line section i see it referring to right command
but also FromAD: command line = SMSSITECODE=MCX SMSCACHEDIR="D:\SCCM"
any idea ??
needless to say i don't have drive D in this computer
and the installation fail

takoroni Have you tried specifying just the MP FQDN (without the https:// prefix) for the /mp command line parameter? According to the documentation, you should only include the https:// prefix when specifying a CMG for the /mp parameter. I wonder if the inclusion of the prefix "breaks" ccmsetup.exe, causing it to revert to the installation properties published in AD.
In the SMSMP client.msi property, the https:// prefix does need to be included. So what you could try for your manual installation is something like this:
ccmsetup.exe /MP:sccmserver.com SMSSITECODE=MCX SMSMP=https://sccmserver.com SMSCACHEDIR="C:\SCCM"
For details, see CCMSetup.exe command-line parameters: /mp and Client.msi properties: SMSMP .
For what it's worth: for domain-joined computers, it's usually not necessary to specify the /mp parameter and/or the SMSMP property, as they will retrieve these values from AD anyway.
