SCCM PXE boot failed after unintall WSUS.

Device management

Setup my test lab in this weekend to test SCCM TP 1609, and my PXE boot failed. SMSPXE.log shows:

RequestMPKeyInformation: Send() failed.
Unsuccessful in getting MP key information. 80004005.
PXE::MP_InitializeTransport failed; 0x80004005
PXE::MP_ReportStatus failed; 0x80070490,
PXE::CPolicyProvider::InitializeMPConnection failed; 0x80070490

 

mplist-failed

When tried to open MP list, http://my_sccm_server/sms_mp/.sms_aut?mplist, it gave me HTTP Error 500.19

Error Code 0x800700e, unable to load DLL.

So what happend? Well, because I uninstalled WSUS (not ask my way, I had my reason. 😀 ), applicationHost.config files didn’t updated itself.

How to fix it:

Open “C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\applicationHost.config”, search “suscomp.dll”, and remove the whole line.
After that problem sovled.

<scheme name=”xpress” doStaticCompression=”false” doDynamicCompression=”true” dll=”C:\Program Files\Update Services\WebServices\suscomp.dll” staticCompressionLevel=”10″ dynamicCompressionLevel=”0″ />

iis

Well, you can also install WSUS back, it will fix the problem for you. 🙂

  1. OMG I was banging my head against a wall for hours on this one! It fixed things straight away thanks!

  2. I know this is an old post but wanted to express my thanks
    Great find, this saved me so much time!
    I had removed the WSUS role from my primary server and moved it onto it’s own server and came in the next morning to find PXE wasn’t working. All the posts I had seen with similar errors suggested either reinstalling WDS or reinstalling the MP roll in SCCM. Neither of those sounded too appealing.
    Your scenario fit mine perfectly so I was able to simply remove the offending line and get everthing up and running!
    🙂

  3. Thank you very much, help pxe problems that have been bothering for a long time, avoid reinstalling the system, install iis and net plugins, install the sccm server, it is very painful.

  4. I could hug you, thank you so much for this, had me pulling my hair, and your post helped. Direct fix, saved me hours of work.

  5. Excellent Post Sandy. I have encountered this issue so many times. The same issue could occur if there are issues with management point. So, an MP repair should also resolve this issue.

  6. Thank you very much indeed. I cannot believe that the moment I removed the said line and saved the file, everything started to work again.

    1. Hello. I am so happy it help you. Your comment totally made my day better. I was sure anyone still reading my blog, or even worth to keep my blog. 🙂
