PENDING SCCM CMG distribution failing out of the blue with error: 0x800704c8

[TheAzzy]

Hi fine community,

I'm struggeling for the past hours trying to find out why my CMG isn't receiving new packages.

Environment:
SCCM 2309 latest hotfix installed
Server 2019 across the board.

Analyzer no errors:

Secret key still valid
CMG Certificate got updated today just in case
Root cert still there
PkgXferMgr.log:


BranchCache service isn't running on the MP.

My search-fu on the internet came back pretty much empty.

Anyone else had this issue before or someone know how to fix this? Same packages distribute perfectly to other DP's.

Sometimes the issue isn't SCCM...

Worked for years without a problem. Suddenly our AV started blocking things without reporting it to the console.

Ticket opened with vendor...

Feel free to set to resolved.

Hi, We started with this issue on Friday also, can I ask what AV Vendor you have?

Hi Azzy,

i have the same Problem, look at

Problem: Configuration Manager 2309 Hotfixrollup (KB25858444)​

i think, maby sure is not an AV Problem... read in my Post what i have ready done...

Installing the hotfix tonight will let you know how I get on

 

[miller_jam1982]

Same issue while installing the hotfix, so not able to install the hotfix either

Hi, just jumping on this one here. We just started having the exact same issue with our CMG today. Any package or application fails to distribute to it and we get the same error messages. Nothing has been changed on our side at all.

 

[miller_jam1982]

Just wondering what AV you are all using?, Just in case we are all using the same one and a definition update has caused the issue

 

[pingpongitore]

we use CrowdStrike, we haven't gotten approval to disable it yet to see if that resolves the issue for us or not.

Yes us too, will try the disable tomorrow

Removed Crowdstrike and same results

 

[miller_jam1982]

Hmm interesting, Crowdstrike updated to version 7.12.18207.0 on the 09/04/2024.

Hi Azzy, If the AV was not reporting the blocking in the console how have you found out it is that causing the issue?

 

[miller_jam1982]

Update: Removed Crowdstrike and packages and hotfix started working. Going back to previous version of crowdstrike 7.11.18110 also looks to have worked so update 7.12.18207.0 seems to be causing the issue.

So just to make sure I understand, you removed CrowdStrike, and were able to distribute to your CMG? Reinstalling a prior version also kept the issue away?

Yes correct

 

[pingpongitore]

Yes correct

OK, We will try the same thing today and I will be sure to update this thread for posterity sake. We currently have CrowdStrike 7.12.18207.0 installed
