Facing Issue "Sending with winhttp failed; 80072f8f. retrying" while performing OSD.

Question

Hi everyone,

I have SCCM 2107 installed in my environment. I have the MP configured as HTTPS and I have provided the necessary certificates in the IIS. Along with this, I have also included a DP certificate in the DP properties. Along with this, the site communication protocol is set to HTTPS only in the environment. All the settings can be seen as shown below:

I am trying to perform OSD using this SCCM server but it is throwing me the below-mentioned error.

What could be the cause of this error?

Answer 1

Check the time on the device you are trying to image. A time difference can result in errors while attempting to communicate with MP to pull down the policies. You will need to sync it WinPE. Look it up.

There is an error related to incorrect certificate. However, it doesn't appear to be repetitive. Let's fix the time on the device first and then if need be we can come back to fixing the cert.

Answer 2

Did you fix the time sync?

Answer 3

If you are not going to respond to what I am asking then I can't help you. Maybe someone else can help you here..Good luck.

Answer 4

Hi, @Garima Das
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

80072ee7 means The server name or address could not be resolved.
You may try to check the scope option 006 DNS Servers in DHCP to see if the IP configured correctly.
