Management Point/Distribution Point mofcomp issue

[drewz99]

We are having a very difficult time locating any posts, forum topics, or ms bulletins in regards to the attached distmgr.log file. If anybody of you knowledgeable helpful users on the forum can assist in ANY way, please feel free to offer any suggestions. We currently are unable to distribute any new data, sync dp's, etc...

We have performed a site reset. We have removed MP role. We have removed and replaced the mentioned file. Kind of at a loss. Short of rebuilding the main site server, I'm not too sure as to our next step. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Manually compile this modified Configuration.MOF file using MOFComp.exe

 

 

^{You should use mofcomp.exe -check Configuration.mof}

^{This will check the syntax of the MOF File.}

Unable to locate configuration.mof. syntax returned is as follows: File 'configuration.mof' not found!

[drewz99]

Was able to locate the configuration.mof file and run the command mentioned above. Output was:

Parsing MOF file: configuration.mof

MOF file has been successfully parsed

Syntax check complete.

(followed by a warning regarding #PRAGMA AUTORECOVER)

 

Next step....

sorry I write somting wrong about 'configuration.mof'

 

You should Compiling E:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\bin\x64\smsdpprov.mof.

Path for MofComp.exe : C:\Windows\system32\wbem

Please copy smsdpprov.mof file from \Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\bin\X64 to remote DP server c:\ and in CMD run ‘mofcomp.exe c:\smsdpprov.mof’ .

I hope this will help you.........

[drewz99]

Yes, ran as administrator and we have tried reinstalling BITS as well.

[ludi2014]

Try this

 

In an elevated Powershell window, run this:

Get-WMIObject -namespace “root” -query “SELECT * FROM __Namespace where name = ‘ccm’” | remove-wmiobject

 

last solution will be is unistall MP role and install MP.

I know it's an OLD post, but it did come up when I searched for the resolution of the same problem. 

I had spent almost 2 days troubleshooting this issue by myself and with MSFT CAS rep. 

After running Process monitor I noticed that MOFCOMP.exe is trying to access C:\Windows\Temp folder to write some temp file. I examined that folder and found that it has over 74,000 files in it dating as far back as 3 years ago.  I deleted all files in it (it had some files in use or locked, but MAJORITY of them have been removed), then restarted SMS Executive service and it all started to work. Next morning I validated packages and it all was distributed and re-validated successfully. 

 

Later on, I found that user Rbaker0 had the same solution on the TechNet forum:     https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/574a9a72-1276-4500-94f3-12b0a31f1364/mofcompexe-failed-delete-the-classes-and-retry-compiling-0x8004400a-unexpected-token-at-file?forum=configmanagergeneral
