SOLVED Failed to run task sequence (0x80004005)

[ronvanloo]

Hello

Since last Friday we can't provide any image to our devices anymore.
The error occurs when I do a PXE boot and when I select the desired task sequence I see a screen (for 30 seconds) Resolving selected taks sequence dependencies.....
After this I got the error screen.

All tasks sequences have this error. I also created a new one with no actions in it, same error.
Error 0x80004005 can occur on many errors as I can find on the internet.
I also checked the certificate and there is 1 certificate blocked but this one already expired in 2014.
I examined the smsts.log and this is the error:
Failed to download policy {d4b89af7-b174-45bc-ad9b-c457ad2a22d9} (Code 0x80004005).
Before this error I first got 5 messages: BOM not found on policy reply

Is here someone who had an idea?

Regards,

Ron

Hereby I send you the log file.
I also pressed F8 when the error occurs. When I do a ipconfig I get the correct IP settings.
There is also a NetSetp.log file on the device and in this file I can see the MININT..... name and that this is attacht to the workgroup: WORKGROUP

I solved the problem.
I deleted the policy that is mentioned in the SMSTS.LOG that could not been found. The policy can be found in 3 tables of the MSSQL database:

• policy
• policyassignment
• deppolicyassignment

Before this action I first made a snapshot of the SCCM VMware server in case of.....
After I deleted the policy i tried a new installation of a machine and the TS reported no error. After a while the machine was ready and there were no errors in the logging.
The only strange thing is that the deleted policy returned in all 3 tables. But we installed a couple of machines after I noticed this but the TS starts and ends without any problem.
I think this is a case for Mulder and Scully because I don't have a clue what was causing this problem.
Thanks for all your relpies and ideas.

Ron
