I've been slowly working on building out the different ConfigManager components over the past year...learning as I go, and started working on OSD a few months back. Back then my build and capture TS was working just fine, but recently I've started having issues with the Install Applications step. Since that time the only change I can think of that was made was upgrading to R2.
I use a VM to PXE boot and run the build and capture TS, which is set for unknown computers. All applications are distributed to the local DP, and have been made available for TS deployment. The network access account is setup. During the process it shows the applications are being installed, but appears quicker than it should. After the image has been captured, and I get into Windows, I notice that none of the applications actually installed. Everything else in the TS appears to be working correctly, including packages.
I've done a lot of searching through TechNet and other sites for advice, and I found some issues that sound familiar, but don't appear to be this particular case. These are the things I've tried so far:
- Updated the applications on the DP
- Tested all applications through the application catalog - all are successful
- Created a new TS - also failed to install applications
- Did a test with a VM in a different boundary, using a different DP, with the same TS - this works fine
- Removed the DP role from the server and re-installed it and all content, based on the TS working fine from a different DP - no affect
I've been ripping through log files, but nothing is standing out as being the root cause. Let me know if there is anything more I can provide via info or log files. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
I'll have links to log files up once I can get my account verified.
