Package won't install on Distribution Point, others will.

[gregzielinski]

I created a new package, which contains only one program.
When I go to distribute the package the site shows 1 "targeted" but install stays at 0 and has stayed at 0 for 4 days now. If I go to update the package the source version will increment but it always remains, TARGET=1, installed=0.

I have 4 other packages I’ve made and have run when I go to update them the source version increments, the Target goes to 1 and Install goes to 0 as well. 10 seconds later install goes to 1. So I can update existing packages but cannot update or install others.


Any ideas? I have full admin rights.

Make sure that the SOURCE patch is correct. Also, check your SMS logs. You should see a problem in the SMS_Distribution_Manager components logs. This should detail your problem... Joseph L. Poandl

Well, the source is correct.
In fact, If I add my EXE as a program under an existing package it works fine. It'll distribute and work just fine.

If a do a new package with a new program it won't dist.
Logs show this.

No errors. It just skipped the start of the Dist, the copying, and success of the dist. Yet the whole thing still says it processed successfully when it didn't. It still shows it's targeted and not installed.
