Pull DP not installing - Pulldp.msi not executing

Question

I've been working on issues installing PullDPs for a couple weeks here. One thing that was confusing me is that pulldp_install.log wasn't present anywhere. I finally pulled the command out of the log and executed it manually on the server - R:\SMS_DP$\sms\bin\ccmsetup.exe /autoupgrade /upgradetolatest /postinstallmsi:"R:\SMS_DP$\sms\bin\pulldp.msi;R:\SMS_DP$\sms\logs\pulldp_install.log - Nothing happened. However, when I manually execute pulldp.msi the PullDP installs with no issues.

It seems like ccmsetup.exe postinstallmsi isn't doing anything. Does anyone have any idea why that would be? The logs are pretty bare without the pulldp_install.log:

Answer 1

Hi Lucas,

I found tags about SCCM.

Please remove the tag small-basic.

Answer 2

The tag "small-basic" id=s for Technical questions about Microsoft Small Basic, the only text-based language and IDE built for students to learn to code

Try to find a tag which is fitting for your program.

Answer 3

Hi, @Lucas Lichte
Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum and you have now attached the right tag.

There must be the SCCM client agent installed on the distribution point before you configure the pull DP.
Do you have the client agent installed in the pull DP?
