SOLVED component (bgbisapi.msi) could not install

[DavidBrookes]

I am getting the following error on one of the SCCM servers that I manage 'Site Component Manager failed to install this component, because the Microsoft Installer File for this component (bgbisapi.msi) could not install.'. I found the article https://www.prajwaldesai.com/fatal-msi-error-bgbisapi-msi-could-not-be-installed/ and attempted to implement the fix but was unable to modify the InstallUtil.exe .config file. Do you know what process would be accessing this file that I can stop or kill so I can modify the file?

What do you see when you edit installutil.exe ?.

Try this :-

1. Copying InstallUtil.exe.config to desktop

2. Edit the original file's Security to deny everyone to access

3. Change the permission for the original file back

4. Replace with the edited file

Unable to do so modify security permission steps - what services should I stop to allow me to do so?

Try

1. Uninstall MP
2. uninstall IIS , BITS and Remote differential Compression
3. restart the server
4. Install IIS (Caution: Install all requied components of IIS for SCCM, don not proceed with default options ).
5. Install MP again from sites
6. restart SCCM console

It should be good.

Have you solved it? I see the same behaviour in 2403.

I found this solution on another feed to elevate the permissions on the InstallUtil.exe.config file and take ownership. Run these commands in an elevated CMD.

TAKEOWN /F "C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\InstallUtil.exe.config"ICACLS

"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\InstallUtil.exe.config" /grant "<Enter the account username which will take ownership":F
