SOLVED New distribution point not deploying packages but able to deploy applications

[Sukhjit]

Datatransfer.log shows below error when try to run deployment through Software Center
Successfully queued event on HTTP/HTTPS failure for server 'SMV-DS.interfor.net'. DataTransferService 5/12/2021 7:00:15 PM 19032 (0x4A58)
Error sending DAV request. HTTP code 401, status 'Unauthorized' DataTransferService 5/12/2021 7:00:15 PM 19032 (0x4A58)
GetDirectoryList_HTTP('http://SMS_DP_SMSPKG$/SC1002A9') failed with code 0x80070005. DataTransferService 5/12/2021 7:00:15 PM 19032 (0x4A58)

No issues deploying applications. For packages Install would get grayed out and %age won't move. It would stay there unless i close it. Restarting the computer doesn't help. All machine at this site shows the same results.
All other sites are fine.
Any suggestions

Can you upload some screenshots. I am not able to think of any solutions here.

This solution has helped me in fixing a similar issue. Also, knowing that the WebDAV is not required anymore puts the icing on the cake.

I recently deployed SCCM 2403 server at work to manage only Servers and it runs on a windows server 2022.
Everything "I mean the configs" checked out okay except that my software update deployment package fails to install after an endless wait. The Software Center on the client side (both Windows Server 2019 & 2022) would show the status as "Downloading (0% complete)".

After 2-3 days, I searched and checked through several CCM log files but I noticed the errors in "DataTransferService.log" - {GetDirectoryList_HTTP Error sending DAV request. HTTP code 401, status 'Unauthorized'} and {GetDirectoryList_HTTP Error sending DAV request. HTTP code 405, status ''} were consistent and then I found this article;

So, I did the following;

- I removed the WebDAV module from IIS Modules on my SCCM Server and rebooted.
- I triggered against the device collection that I deployed the software update package to, "Download Computer Policy" and "Software Update Evaluation" via Client Notification from SCCM Console

BOOOM! in less than 30mins the windows updates were installed on all the servers.
