SMS Web components are not removed when you remove all the packages from a Windows Server 2003 distribution point

On This Page

SYMPTOMS

When you remove all packages from a BITS-enabled Microsoft Windows Server 2003 distribution point (DP), some Web components are not removed. The components that remain are the SMS Distribution Points Pool, the SMS_DP Web extension, and the items that represent the individual DP, such as the SMS_DP_SMSPKGC$ node.

If you remove all packages and you remove the Distribution Point role from the server, the individual DP items are removed, but the upper-level Web components remain. The upper-level Web components that remain are the SMS Distribution Points Pool and the SMS_DP Web extension.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, you must use the Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) Manager and manually remove the SMS Distribution Points Pool and the SMS_DP Web extension. To do so, follow these steps.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other.
