PENDING Task Sequence Failed - 0x00000001

[Seppic]

Right after the end of the application install section of my Task Sequence, I get the below pictured message. If I manually close it or wait it out, the system reboots and it appears my task sequence was successful. All the software is installed, all the settings are there, bitlocker is enabled, it's on the domain, etc. Digging through logs on the client, I'm not seeing anything crazy wrong. So... what logs should I be looking at exactly on the client/server? I want to make sure I'm not missing something. With it "working" I guess it's not that high of a priority, but I'd like the sequence to finish successfully and not deal with this on every deploy.

Did you check smsts.log file to verify if there were any errors at the end ?.

That would be the smsts.log on the client correct?

One thing what you could do to quickly see the part that is causing the error is to drag that error window away from the middle and you might see a window lying under which might be the one causing the problem. If you are formatting a machine, the smsts.log might not be on the drive. You need to press F8 bring up the command prompt and type cmtrace
Then from there, you would have to scroll to the smsts.log which is under the smsts folder and in the X: drive.
