    Here’s a problem which we’ve seen a couple of times which can be caused by bad packages in software distribution.  This problem can arise when Software Distribution is being used, and you notice that devices don’t seem to be getting packages, nor getting updated in the Software Distribution console.  As well as this, the following message is logged in the MDM event log on the Device Management Server:

    Event Type:        Warning
    Event Source:    Device Manager
    Event ID:              8041
    Description:
    Software Distribution service received insufficient query results from device {DeviceSID}.
    Missing LocUri ./Vendor/MSFT/SwMgmt/Download?list=StructData.

    Steps for resolving this issue are at http://blogs.technet.com/mdm/archive/2009/11/02/software-distribution-8041-warning.aspx

    Thank you very much for this!  We are just coming into the tail end of a 300 device deployment and it is giving me time now to go back and clean up errors, fix issues, etc, and this is one of the first I found.  I've run this process on several devices and it worked like a charm.  Thanks again!
