Hi there,
I installed the Dell / Symantec / Altiris Client Manager the other day.
Unfortunately I cannot get ANY form of task to run. I have pushed out Altiris agents successfully.
However, when I try to run a task, say a BIOS task or an Inventory, I ALWAYS get exactly the same non-descript error.
This is the error I get:
Status: Failed
Return code: -1
Start time: 21/11/2008 12:52:00
End time: 21/11/2008 12:58:10
Total run time: 6 min 10 sec
The agent for this task type is not installed.
Show raw exception message
Error 0x800401f3 creating instance handler. CAtrsException exception, error = "Failed to execute task", OS error = 2147746291, at line 298 re-throw at CTaskExecutionEngineBase:
nExecuteTask
Does anyone know why it is failing? The agent is installed, I even set it to manually receive tasks and I seemed to be doing something but then just fails. It does this on every machine I try with.
I'm running sql 2005 xpress all on the same box.
The version details are:
Symantec Mangement Console
Version 7.0.3876
Altiris Notification Server Version 7.0
Hope you can help me as I'm not getting anywhere at the minute!
Thanks,
Jonathan.
