Hi Everyone

I have to admit, SCCM is keeping me on my toes with regards to all the funky errors I'm getting. This time, with the client install.I have to add that we have an old SMS 2003 server which is only used to remotely access the clients until our sccm server is up & running. I have extended the AD schema, tried to install the client on the primary site, but it was unable to automatically discovery the site. I got quite a few errors in the locationservices.log (see attached file). I also checked under the Systems Management container in AD and it still shows the old SMS 2003 server site details (CEN). The new site server and site code for SCCM is GKL.

So, it looks like there are other leftover published data from a previous or SMS 2003 site in AD overlapping with the client's new AD site or the client is finding a match on an SMS 2003 site publishing into the domain where of course the version would be missing. Can I delete the old CEN details in AD? Or how do I resolve this issue?

Any ideas please? I would really appreciate it!

Ok...I found this thread and it actually helped me resolve this issue of the client discovery the site code automatically:
