We are having trouble with the Config Manager client randomly getting corrupted during installation on new computers. We are currently rebuilding our image, but in the meantime, we are implementing a short term solution where we simply completely uninstall Config Manager Client, remove the computer object from the Config Manager console, and then reinstall the client.
In an effort to reduce the "clicks" that our help desk techs would have to preform, I would like to write a simple script/batch/program/whatever to just do it in one fell swoop. My only holdup is that I don't know how to invoke Configuration Manager via the command line or Powershell and remove a computer from our Devices.
Is this even possible? I can't find any documentation from Microsoft.
Found my answer. There is a wealth of Configuration Manager cmdlets available. I simply used "CM-GetDevice" to find a device, and then "Remove-CMDevice" to remove it completely.

I have installed CouchDB on my Windows machine but while starting the CouchDB service, I am getting a message like:
Windows could not start the Apache CouchDB service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error. This could be an internal Windows error or an internal service error. If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator.
As the service is not running, I am unable to access Fauxton too.
I am using Windows 7. CouchDB is 2.0.0. Port 5984 is not in use.
I don't think your question is a duplicate of https://stackoverflow.com/a/44107335/219187 because you are on Windows 7, and the problem described there is for Windows 10 with the creators update.
But maybe the solution fixes your problem as well? Here is the procedure:
Download the prelease build 2.2.4-101 from https://nssm.cc/download
Stop the CouchDB service through the Windows Services dialog (paused is not enough)
Overwrite nssm.exe in <CouchDbInstallDir>\bin with the one from the downloaded ZIP file (make sure you pick the right version 32 bit / 64 bit)
Start the CouchDB service
Issue it's happening since the last updates released by Microsoft. I'm not completely aware of what's causing it, but I think it's something related to CouchDB service not been able to start using Local Administrator rights.
However I've managed to start the service manually, by doing so:
Open Command Prompt - in the Search from the Start Menu or Task Bar type "cmd"
Run it as an Administrator - right click on the Command Prompt application and choose "Run as administrator" option /this is really IMPORTANT as it will allow the service to have administrator access/
Navigate to the folder where CouchDB is install - default path is "D:/CouchDB", but could be anywhere else; you have to find it
Go to the "bin" folder in there
Type "couchdb" as a command to start the service
You will see a message showing after this - "kernel-poll not supported; "K" parameter ignored"
If it adds some error messages after it or closes the whole terminal, you're making some things bad from this guide, so follow it strictly.
You can now open up the Fauxton application in the browser like normal from here - http://localhost:5984/_utils/
Keep in mind that you have to leave the cmd opened in order the service to be working as expected. As far as I saw no information was lost, so it's all good.
This is a temporary solution though, as we are waiting a relase from either Microsoft or Apache to solve the issue, or at least give us more explanation about it.
i just met the same problem.
the cause is space, you have to install CouchDB in a path without any space, even Program Files folder, because there is a space between Program and Files...
"Install and configure" radio button is disabled for me when installing Reportin Services. Can anybody explain why?
P.S. Using SQL Server 2012, Standard Edition.
The behaviour is explained in Reporting Services Configuration Options (SSRS), though it's really impossible to tell what the specific issue is in your case.
From the article:
Install and configure Installs a report server instance in Native Mode
using the default values for the report server databases, service
account, and URL reservations. When you choose this option, the report
server instance is ready to use when Setup is finished. Setup creates
the report server database using a local Database Engine instance, and
configures a report server to use default values.
This option is available only if the default values used in a report
server installation are valid for your system. This option is
recommended for developers who want to install all components locally,
and for users who are evaluating the software.
(Emphasis added)
So there is something in your environment that is preventing this option. To investigate, the article suggests:
To view information about the default Settings that Setup uses, or to
find out why the default configuration cannot be installed, click
Details.
It also suggests looking at What is the Default Configuration to help get more details.
You will need to review all this information in your own environment to get your specific issue.
This might be wrong place to ask this question.
I spent effort in setting up thr sharepoint 2010 2 tier farm. I have settled up the sql server databases required for sharepoint, installed on different machine. and sharepoint on another machine. it took around 6 days, but at the end i noticed that i have computer name with something "win43453-676" like this. where as my manager wants to to keep relavant name like "CentralAdminMachine" of central admin pc. if i changed the name of machine , i am unable to open even central administration site. is there any remedy to change this name in configuration database and all....?
There is both a PowerShell cmdlet and an STSADM command that allow you to change the server name. Both require that you first change the name through the standard Windows System control panel. After that (and a restart) you can use:
Rename-SPServer [-Identity] <OriginalServerName> -Name <NewServerName>
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263117(office.12).aspx
or
Rename-SPServer [-Identity] <SPServerPipeBind> -Name <String> [-AssignmentCollection <SPAssignmentCollection>] [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607556.aspx
There are some people who seem to recommend the STSADM (even though PowerShell is the Microsoft recommend way on SharePoint 2010) because it seems to work and not the give error that the PowerShell command does about feature dependency, but it looks like you can try either one.
And you may need to update your alternate access mappings to enable any custom URLs to work as well.
I've searched Google for days, but cannot come up with any answers. A week ago, we did a server migration. We have a clustered environment where the following code works on one server, but not the other (and I cannot get it to work on my local machine for our non-clustered development environment):
rootDSE = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://nonfullyqualifieddomain/RootDSE")
If I try the above, I get the generic error mentioned in the question title (Again, it works on one of the servers, but not the other).
However, when I do this the DirectoryEntry object is instantiated:
rootDSE = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://fully.qualified.domain", adUserId, adPassword, AuthenticationTypes.Secure)
Based on what I see online, my best guess is that it has something to do with permissions or configurations, but I'm not familiar with the server administration side of the application. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Every time I've got the "Server not operational" in one of the infrastructure I worked on, it was because I was trying to connect an LDAP server on a bad adress. This was due to :
Bad DNS resolution
Bad Netbios resolution
Firewall filtering
My advice it to use DNS resolution for production and test environment, and to use direct IP adress for development environment.
Be sure 389 (or 636) port is binded on the adress you use and you can connect to it. On Windows Server 2008 LDP.EXE is a good tool to test LDAP connexion (present in W2K3 ressource kit). On development computer I use Apache Directory Studio which is also a good tool to test Directory connectivity and content.
I have come across the same error in one of our legacy applications. This is a memory leak issue. To work around this, I made sure that the code was disposing of the Directory entry once done using it. Something like:
using (System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry OUEntry
= new DirectoryEntry(domain, userName, userPassword))
{
// your code here
}
I am having a problem when I try to browse WCF service (.svc file) which is hosted in IIS7 & Windows7. It throws following error.
HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found
The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.
I tried to run ServiceModelReg, but it say I should have admin rights in order to run this, although I am admin on this machine.
Does any one know how to resolve this issue.
FInally....
I am able to resolve this issue.
I ran following two command and it solved the problem.
aspnet_regiis -i & ServiceModelReg -i
Even though I am admin on the machine, I need to run this 2 commands by right click and select 'Run as Admin'.
Your issued is answered here. Trying to be short:
When you start the command prompt, can
you right-click on the icon to open it
and select "Run as Administrator"? I
don't know exactly what's the logic
behind that, but on Vista there are
two kinds of administrative users, one
"normal" administrator and one
"elevated" administrator. I'd guess
the tool needs the second kind.
and second
Also, Why do you need to run
Servicemodelreg.exe on VIsta?
Officially this is not supported on
Vista. Instead you can go to WIndows
features menu throught Add remove
programs and enabled Http Activation
under .Net framework 3.0 feature.
This will enable everything you might
want to do via Servicemodelreg.exe.
Edit
And also here.
If you go into IIS Manager and double click on Handler Mappings do you have *.svc paths listed?
