Hey there!  I recently ran up against an issue with the “Configuration Manager 1702 Hotfix Rollup (KB4019926)” getting stuck after upgrading SCCM to 1702.

[br]

SYMPTOM

As expected, after the upgrade, the new hot fix package appeared in the console as “Available for Download.”

[br]

After clicking the Download button, the button went gray and I waited…and waited…and waited however it was just stuck still showing “Available for download” with no ability to click the download button again.

[br]

[br]

A lesson I believe we all learn very quickly when working with SCCM is that patience can be your friend so I let it sit overnight with the hopes that when I came in in the morning all would be right with the world and I could install the update.

[br]

I am betting you have guessed already that this wan’t the case when I came in or I wouldn’t be here typing away on this post right now.  😉

[br]

So like any good admin, I start digging through the CMUpdate.log and the DMPDownloader.log.  Unfortunately I didn’t turn anything up there.  My next step was to see if it actually did download the content so I navigated to Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\CMUStaging and discovered a GUID based folder with the date and time stamp of just about the time I clicked that Download button.

[br]

After some quick Bing searches, I came across an old article from Microsoft about an issue where Current Branch Tech Preview 1509 would get stuck in a state of “Installing” and the fix was to execute a Stored Procedure in the database to correct it.

[br]

From the article, the query to run to fix that particular issue was:

EXEC spCMUSetUpdatePackageState N'dcd17922-2c96-4bd7-b72d-e9159582cdf2', 262146, N''

THE FIX

As you can see there is a GUID that is being passed to the SP.  Being the the daredevil that I am, I decided to replace the GUID from the article with the GUID that comprises the CMUStaging folder discussed above.

Actual SQL query I used:

EXEC spCMUSetUpdatePackageState N'DBEF803D-D936-46B3-88FE-A5BDD7A03168', 262146, N''

[br]

Happy days ensued as a quick refresh of the update in the console now shows “Ready to install.”

[br]

[br]

Hopefully you don’t run into this issue, however if you do now you know how to unstick those pesky SCCM updates. If I can be of any further assistance to you on this, don’t hesitate to get in touch!
