SCCM 2012 SP1 CU4 Client Update fails on Windows Server 2003

Hi –  It’s me, Alain
A quick post: Today I was running into a problem upgrading Windows Server 2003 with the CU4 SCCM SP1 Client.

The Server startetd to install the Client but faild after a few minutes with following errors in the application eventlog:

.NET Runtime Optimization Service (clr_optimization_v2.0.50727_32) – Failed to compile: C:WINDOWSCCMSCClient.exe.config . Error code = 0x8007000b
.NET Runtime Optimization Service (clr_optimization_v2.0.50727_32) – Failed to compile: C:WINDOWSCCMSCNotification.exe.config . Error code = 0x8007000b

Solution: Make sure you have .net 4 Framework installed. Uses this patch KB982671

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982671/en-us

No reboot is required after installing the KB. Just make sure you’re refresh the maschine policy to install the client.

And please: Keep your systems patched :-).

Cheers,
