Error: Distribution Manager failed to install distribution point ["Display=\\server.domain.com\"]
Possible cause: Distribution Manager does not have sufficient rights to the computer.
Solution: Verify that the site server computer account is administrator of the computer
Solution:
1. Open "distmgr.log" in \Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\Logs
2. Search for """"CWmiDpRegistry::WmiOpenEx: Failed to connect to WMI namespace root\SCCMDP on machine""" and if you see that within the log then most likely this is the solution for you.
3. Please copy smsdpprov.mof file from \Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\bin\X64 to remote DP server c:\ and in CMD run ‘mofcomp.exe c:\smsdpprov.mof’ .This will create the WMI name space and the DP role installation will continue without errors.
please wait for few minutes and refresh distribution status under monitoring ..you will see a green tick mark.....
