Unknown Error (4294901760)

Hey,
So here is an interesting little bug. I am deploying round about 3000 Adobe Acrobat installs and i have like 160 deployment fails.
The clients will keep failing to launch the install skript with the error above as long as it runs from Config Manager. (i cant even run PS-session from sccm client center that runs in my admin context …)
If i lets say open a fresh PS session towards the client as my admin user the script works just fine …

Anyone stumbled upon this one?

This is not a PSADT error code.

according to this: Powershell terminating with exit code 4294901760 - Stack Overflow

you might have old Windows 10 1809 machines.

Google doesn’t pan out, try DDG: Error 4294901760 at DuckDuckGo

I agree its not a PSADT error in itself. But none the less it’s a relevant issue as it is directly tied to application deployments using PSADT (PowerShell)

Not a case of outdated Winver 10.0.19045.3086 sadly

What does the PSADT log file say on those failed installs?

BTW: no PSADT log file = Not a PSADT issue.

I am not arguing wheter it is a toolkit issue. (its not) If you are here to start something then just keep scrolling.

Your install command is wrong. it should be:
Deploy-Application.exe -DeploymentType 'Install'
or
Deploy-Application.exe Install

Are you using a custom Deploy-Application.ps1? What is the content of the Deploy-Application.ps1 script? Maybe the path is not defined correctly on those systems and it can’t build the full path from the relative script name.
You need to give more details.
Not everyone knows Norwegian. But if we translate the message it says “Exact path information is required.” So most likely powershell or the Deploy-Application.exe can’t find the full path of the script.

His Deploy-Application.ps1 has a different name for each script.

Meanwhile I know the Deploy-Application.exe is a bit flaky / nitpicky with launching scripts not called Deploy-Application.ps1

Maybe if the PowerShell script didn’t have spaces, DanOne could drop the double quotes and Deploy-Application.exewould let it work.

Sadly the naming back to Depploy-Application.ps1 had no effect.
The troubleshooting continues :slight_smile:
