I finally found the issue. Our local domain policy locks down the regkey HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SvcHost After stopping the GPO applying to my SCCM server the Management Point installed fine. It looks as though ScvHost is used by IIS to create virtual directories, and the Management Point (MP.msi) was failing to install due to this. It's a good lesson to learn, that I should have created a proper test enviroment for testing SCCM, rather then going the easy way of using the production domains resources. Cheers for your help.

Yeah, I came across that post. And I did install webdav 7.5 via add/remove features - then set it up as per the instructions in the doco. The reporting services components are working fine, it's just the management point causing problems. Perhaps I should start from scratch using Windows 2008 Std?

Hey Anyweb, I've doubled checked "C:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\Logs\mpMSI.log" and the log I attached is the correct log. Are we perhaps after "C:\Program Files(x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\Logs\MPSetup.log"? I've attached that log incase that's what we need. Cheers MPSetup.log

I've attached the mpMSI.log file as it's faily large (1.88MB) It seems to install the MSI partly, but then at the end of the log it says; MSI (s) (7C:14) [14:45:25:043]: Note: 1: 1708 MSI (s) (7C:14) [14:45:25:043]: Product: SMS Management Point -- Installation operation failed. MSI (s) (7C:14) [14:45:25:044]: Windows Installer installed the product. Product Name: SMS Management Point. Product Version: 4.00.6487.2000. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation. Installation success or error status: 1603. Also I only have two critical components in "Component Status" - SMS_MP_CONTROL_MANAGER and SMS_MP_DEVICE_MANAGER Any ideas? Cheers mpMSI.log

Hello There, Did we manage to resolve this issue as it appears I have the exact same issue. I have followed the guides on the website to the letter, but am still getting the same error as the OP. My setup is as follows: Windows Server 2008 R2 SQL 2005 SP3 SCCM 2007 SP2 R2 MDT 2010 This is the error: MP Control Manager detected MPsetup has failed to create the CCM_Incoming Virtual Directory. Possible cause: The IIS IWAM account has expired, been disabled, or has invalid or too restrictive logon hours. You may verify this information by running the net user command line for the IWAM account. (i.e.: "net user IWAMMachineName) Solution: Use the output to verify that the account is enabled, and logon is possible during the time of installation. Note: You can use "net user" to modify the account properties. Possible cause: The IIS IUSR account has expired, been disabled, or has invalid or too restrictive logon hours. You may verify this information by running the net user command line for the IUSR account. (i.e.: "net user IWAMMachineName) Solution: Use the output to verify that the account is enabled, and logon is possible during the time of installation. Note: You can use "net user" to modify the account properties. Possible cause: The designated Web Site is disabled in IIS. Solution: Verify that the designated Web Site is enabled, and functioning properly.
