Hi,
Can you please assists? I am distributing content to a secondary distribution point and its just stuck on processing.
I went through the Distmgr.log and it was full of errors mainly repeated error with this message.
Failed to get valid sitetype for this site

Then I went on to look at the sitecomp.log, this is what I found on the logs.
Failed to get top level site code
Current copy of the Site Control File is invalid. Not able to read SMS_SITE_COMPONENT_MANAGER section of sitecontrol file of top level site.

this is on the secondary site, please assist.
Regards
Oscar

Could you check the hman.log file and let me know if you find any error messages there ?

Hi, I get this error:
CheckParentSQLServerCertificate: Failed to get SQL certificate for site W01

You need to verify few things. First make sure you can telnet to 1433 and 4022 from Primary to Secondary and vice versa. If that's working fine, your sql port communication is fine.

Try removing the secondary site and adding it back. If the option to remove is not available in console, you will have to delete the secondary and then manually uninstall the secondary site. Try adding the secondary back again. Keen an eye on hman.log.

Finally i want to tell you that the secondary site issues are always painful to troubleshoot. It would be good if you get rid of secondary sites soon.
