I've tried restarting a few times, no change. I do not use SCCM for Windows Updates, so it's not waiting for software updates. It seems like it's downloaded everything and ready to go, but it's waiting for something to finish before starting to install. If I open C:\Windows\CCMCache, I can see all of the programs, files, and installers listed there. I made a new copy of the Configuration Manager Client and deployed the new version with the clean image. I even went so far as to make a new image, completely devoid of any installed programs.

We had it on, but were not using it (we only have one server, which is also the distribution point). I've turned off pre-staged content in the distribution settings. I've redistributed all of the applications (90+) to our distribution server. Even weirder - if I uninstall the client and reinstall it, and then wait for a while (usually overnight), I'll come back to all of the applications installed normally! I've dug through the logs, and can't seem to find much, although there are quite a few logs to look through. Sure enough, as soon as the client installs and finds applications, they are stuck at "Waiting to Install". However, I decided to try imaging a test machine to see if I could replicate the problem. I messed around with some settings in my IIS (I originally couldn't reach the application website, and thought that may be part of the problem), uninstalled and reinstalled the client a few times, and suddenly everything started installing again. Everything was sitting at "Downloading 0%". I installed the image, and came back the next day to find no software was installed. No changes to the workflow were made since this process last worked.

Previously, we would deploy an image to a computer, and the Client would automatically install, and within about 45min - 1.5 hours all of the software would install automatically.Īfter the R2 install, we had a new computer that needed to be imaged. We recently upgraded our server from 2008 to 2012, and then to R2 and SCCM 2012 to R2 as well.

I have a very strange problem that I can't seem to find an answer to.
