Main Topics
Browse All TopicsOur system was working fine up until recently.
I removed a DC, that really should not have affected anything, and now any time I try to add a driver to a boot image it fails, and gives unable to insert OSD Binaries into the mounted WIM file. It doesn't matter which driver I use, they all fail. I have also tried multiple boot images, to no avail.
I am using SCCM.

How to Add a Boot Image to Configuration Manager:
==========================
http://technet.microsoft.c
additionaly you can check the following solution to know How to replace Windows AIK version 1.0 with Windows AIK version 1.1 when you use System Center Configuration Manager 2007:
http://support.microsoft.c
When I follow that, I use a boot image that is clean, and has not been used for anything other than copying from, and it errors out.
At the end of the wizard, it tells me -
--------------------------
Error: Data Source Information
Source location: \\Av-lab-sccm01\sms_lab\OS
Boot Image: 1 - Microsoft Windows Vista PE (x86)
Error: Package Information
Name: Test Boot Image
Error: Errors
The specified file can not be imported. Please make sure the file is not read only and you have read and write access to it.
--------------------------
I have double checked the folder, and the files are NOT read only, but the folders above it are, and I can't seem to change it.
Ok, so I uninstalled 1.0 and have installed toolkit 1.1.
I followed the steps laid out to convert the boot image.
It failed saying
--------------------------
Error: Data Source Information
Source location: \\av-lab-sccm01\test\boot.
Boot Image: 1 - Microsoft Windows Vista PE (x86)
Error: Package Information
Name: Test x86
Error: Errors
The specified file can not be imported. Please make sure the file is not read only and you have read and write access to it.
--------------------------
So, what I did at this point was I copied the boot.wim file to a new directory, one that I created and opened it wide up, no restrictions whatsoever on the folder. I then ran the wmi stuff and tried importing it again and it failed again.
For some reason, and this may be something I hadn't known about server OS's, all folders are set as read only, but the files are not. After looking up online, it seems that most programs ignore read only flag on a folder.
Can you please do the following and try again:
1- Verify the user rights for your logon user account.
2- Use domain admin account.
3- check ConfigMgr Security Rights permissions and check if ur account have the right permission.
4- go to AD and add SCCM account to domain admins security group.
I think you have permission issue, plz try to remember what u had change in ur system before this issue occur.
Regards
1) The logged on user is a domain administrator account.
- the Network access account is a member of domain administrators
2) The account that I am using is the same account that was used previously, to successfully build Boot images before. I have tried my personal admin account, the SMS administrator account and the domain admin account.
3) The administrator account as well as my personal account have full access to SCCM, which I just double checked.
4) The SMS administrator is a member of domain admins.
5) The location is where it was when it worked previously. It is located in the osd/boot/x86 folder.
I moved one to a temp folder and tried to import it also, but it didn't work.
did u test add boot image to configuration manager or u only tried to upgrade AIK v 1.0 to AIK 1.1, if u didn't test and follow the steps in Microsoft Technet plz try it now.
I'll send the link again:
http://technet.microsoft.c
Please send to me the following logs:
Most Configuration Manager 2007 site server log files are located in the <InstallationPath>\LOGS folder
1- Compsumm.log.
2- Inboxmgr.log
3- Sitecomp.log
4- Sitectrl.log
5- Sitestat.log
6- Smsdbmon.log
7- Smsexec.log
8- Srvacct.log
9- Statmgr.log
In in SMS_CCM\LOGS folder
1- MP_GetAuth.log
also
1- CCMSetup.log
2- DriverCatalog.log
3- MP_DriverManager.log
4- MP_Location.log
What this ended up being was the fact that I had renamed winpe.bmp to something else as a backup, and did not actually name a file back to that.
After I copied over the file and used it, I was able to create new boot images, but my old boot images were actually still corrupted, so I had to start fresh with boot image.

I tried mounting the wim, well, any wim that previously worked in windows AIK, I get There was an error generating a catalog file for image Microsoft Windows Vista PE (x86) in Windows image file.
Details: The location does not contain a valid Windows image or contain files that cannot be opened with read/write privileges. If (location of share) is a shared location, verify that you have read/write access to the location.
I checked out the folder, and the folder structure for \\server\sms_lab\OSD and its derivatives are read only, but the files contained in the read only folders are not read only......
I actually tried to unset the read only flag, but it keeps resetting itself back instantly.
