I created an installation script with this batch line: setup.exe -s -l1031 -f1".\Provi75inst.iss" This is put into a install.bat file that gets deployed with the software package. I tested it with admin-rights and the software installs fine. When I depoloy it through system center and run it in my softwarecenter, I get this error: 0xC0000094 (-1073741676) I researched that it is a "division through zero" error. What the heck. Does anyone know what is going on here? Is there a difference running the installation in SYSTEM context? Due to company restrictions I can't use PSEXEC to verify this. Any idea?285Views0likes0CommentsUnable to patch Windows Server 2025/24H2
Windows updates will not display in software center for 2025/24H2 clients. Currently running SCCM version 2503 hotfix rollup KB32851084. SCCM client version on test server is 5.00.9135.1013. Test server OS is 24H2 build 2600.2894. I have verified that the 24H2 product is enabled in the software update point configuration and within the ADR. ADR preview shows the 24H2 update (KB5068861). I see KB5068861 under the deployments tab of the test server device. I have a daily maintenance window on the collection, and this shows on the test client within "installation status -->upcoming" tab in software center. I do realize that this hotfix rollup included a fix for 2025 OS. Windows Server 2025 updates use the incorrect Maximum run time value in the properties for the software update component. The value can lead to update installations being incorrectly canceled. I did change the maximum run time for KB5068861 from 10 minutes to 60 minutes. Could this be a metadata related issue with the existing KB that is currently downloaded to SCCM (via WSUS)? I hope I'm not missing something obvious but do welcome an easy resolution if that's the case. Thanks for any suggestions or troubleshooting suggestions.1.2KViews0likes0Commentsneed help with a problem related to the system center
This problem started after the September database server update. I can't access the system center interface to view reports, see devices, check updates, track device status, etc. When I try to open it, I see the attached image.

Hi, I’m experiencing an issue in SCO 2025 that has occurred across three different installations. In the Text File Management and File Management IPs, I’m unable to save the security credentials information for the activities. In other activities, such as Get Service Status, it works as expected. If I enter the account information, click Finish, and then reopen the properties, the fields are empty. As a result, the activity runs using the service account specified for the Orchestrator Runbook Service. Has anyone else experienced the same issue, or could there be something wrong with my installations?

All of a sudden (2 weeks ago) all my MECM Clients (~ 4000) in MECM 2409 are showing with a question mark (?) in the console and no values in Last Online Time, Last Activity or HeartBeatDDR. Upon investigation in the statesy.log file on our single site server we see the following message for all clients: SQL MESSAGE: dbo.spProcessStateReport - The record for machine MYCLIENT (GUID:CF5413C8-1DA7-450D-9243-33DB539DE8FF) was not found in the database. SMS_STATE_SYSTEM 24/09/2025 10:36:45 15356 (0x3BFC) We then ran MS SQL profiler and see that this external CLR stored proceedure checks for the existince of the client in the SQL view vLocalSystemIDXRef. This view is defined as follows: create view [dbo].[vLocalSystemIDXRef] as select MachineID, GUID from MachineIdGroupXRef where ArchitectureKey=5 and MachineID between dbo.fnGetSiteRangeStart() and dbo.fnGetSiteRangeEnd() The issue is that all clients are actually in the underlying table MachineIdGroupXRef but due to the filter dbo.fnGetSiteRangeStart() and dbo.fnGetSiteRangeEnd() they are not part of the view. The reason is their ResourceID is only 4 digits and the value returend from fnGetSiteRangeStart is 16777216. Q: How could the clients be getting this 4-digit resourceID all of a sudden? We have made no chnagesto MECM (no upgrades, DB restores etc. ).275Views0likes0Comments
