MECM console crashes when opening Hierarchy Settings

Question

MECM console crashes when opening Hierarchy Settings

Maralok 46

Since recently, if I click on "Site Configuration" -> "Sites" -> "Hierarchy Settings", the console crashes and closes. When that happens, I get the following three events in the "Application" event log:

Faulting application name: Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.exe, version: 5.2207.1049.1000, time stamp: 0xea37ccd4

The interesting part of those events is probably the line "The page of type Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.AdminConsole.SiteHierarchy.AutoUpgradeClientSettingsPageControl was not found in the assembly AdminUI.SiteHierarchyProperty" which seems like the DLL is missing parts of what's needed to create the Client Upgrade page of the dialog. I've been trying to think about anything we've recently changed in the client upgrade settings but we really haven't done anything there. The only thing that recently happened is we installed the NTLM hotfix, but that doesn't include a console update.

Oh, another interesting point is that in the console, the menu point "Console Extensions" is missing: https://i.imgur.com/XrdonSi.png (there's supposed to be a "Console Extensions" under the "Features" in the left hand menu but it's gone).

This is with MECM 2207 and all hotfixes installed. If I go on "Updates and Servicing", I am not offered any additional updates. The console is version 5.2207.1048.1000. .NET is on 4.8.03761.

The crash happens whether I start the console on the site server itself or on a remote client. Also, I tried installing an old version of the console (2203) on a remote client, then point it to the new server and accept the "this console version is too old" warning, but the crash also happens on that old version. I've googled the error messages above and there are indeed two hits on the Technet forums, but they're quite old and the most appropriate one of them just says to upgrade to version 1906 which we're long past.

Did you ever get this resolved? We are having this exact issue now too.

When I updated the site to 2211 the error went away.

Bummer, I'm already up to version 2303 and still have the problem. Thanks

Hi,

Maybe you can try the latest KB 14959905 to see if it can fix the Configuration Manager console crashing issue. Refer to:
Update for Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager version 2207, early update ring

After upgrade, the Configuration Manager console version will be 5.2207.1048.1700 and Client version will be 5.0.9088.1010.

Hope it helps. Have a nice day!

Best regards,
Simon

That update doesn't seem applicable to us because we don't have the package GUID 91959D25-96B7-47FA-A36E-E958F2454CE3 as per the web page, but instead have 1C02A325-C78B-438B-8A08-B9D0D45E136E. I cannot get it to show up in Updates and Servicing, even if I enable the 2207 early release consent (it wasn't enabled before).

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Please try below:

1,If possible, do a site reset to have a try.

2,Check the SMSAdminUI.log to see if there is any useful information.

3,Please submit a product feedback. Refer to:
Product feedback for Configuration Manager
Admin Console crashing after upgrade to 2203

Thanks for your time. Have a nice day!

Best regards,

I was able to do a site reset, but it didn't improve the situation, the same issues exist afterwards (Console Extensions menu isn't visible, and console crashes when opening Hierarchy Settings)

The SMSAdminUI.log shows the same error that's in the event log:

System.TypeLoadException: The page of type Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.AdminConsole.SiteHierarchy.AutoUpgradeClientSettingsPageControl was not found in the assembly AdminUI.SiteHierarchyProperty, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35.

Interestingly, the product feedback feature also doesn't work on this site. If I click one of the smile/frown buttons, I don't receive the familiar feedback window, but I am instead sent to the website https://aka.ms/configmgrfeedback

By the way, I did originally have the suspicion that maybe an extension is at fault here, however if I look in "AdminConsole\Extensions" there is only one extension visible and it's the default WebView extension that's on every MECM environment. I also used a few PowerShell commands to try and modify settings in the client auto upgrade page in case one of them was corrupted:

Set-CMHierarchySetting -AutoUpgradeDays 12 Set-CMHierarchySetting -EnableAutoClientUpgrade $false Set-CMHierarchySetting -EnablePreProduction $false Set-CMHierarchySetting -ExclusionCollectionId SIT00018 -EnableExclusionCollection $true Set-CMHierarchySetting -TelemetryLevel Basic

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

It is really a strange issue. I will do more research, if there is any update, I will let you know. Thanks for your understanding.

For development purposes I’m running two more or less identical labs; after upgrading both to 2207, one lab is having this exact issue, the other one is working as expected.

The problem appeared directly after upgrading to 2207, before any hotfix.

It might rule out the console that copying the setup binaries from the working site and installing them in the degraded didn’t make any difference, crashes with same exceptions.
