Has anyone been successful in creating a package to deploy Microsoft .Net 4.6.2? It is not available via WSUS so it has to be done another way. I figured a custom package via PM would be the ticket. However, no matter what I try it still comes back as not applicable.

Happy B-day THWACK!!!

It would be great if you could share some screen shots. I have a mixed environment of 32 bit and 64 bit clients. I have been working on this, but it keeps showing as not applicable. Any help is appreciated!

Just one question....I can get the BIOS update to push, but the client workstation will not reboot. I tried adding the /r switch in the command line in the package and then changed the reboot code to 3010. But it just won't reboot. : (

whiteerict, You are a Godsend! Dude, I fought with this and even had a ticket open with SolarWinds support. I followed your instructions and BAM! The BIOS updates worked like a charm. Thanx so much for responding to this post! Have a great day!!

This is from the details of the Java packages. Both Upgrade and Stand Alone.

Sure. I am running version 2.1.5.6002.

I tested the 'Upgrade' version and it did not remove the older version (8.144)

Any idea when the new SW Dameware client (12.0.5) will be available on PM? It has been available from the SW Portal since August.

Will the Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Classic catalog contain Acrobat Reader DC 17 soon? So far, I just see 15 available.

When will the new version of Google Chrome (Version 60.0.3112.113) be released?

So the issue with Java 8.144 continues with Notepad ++ 7.5. It shows as 'Not Applicable'. I found the applicability rules as having the 'NOT' statement in them. I am unable to rely on PM at this point and have had to resort to using PDQ Deploy. Can someone at SolarWinds look into this?

Well, I am going to use teiresias post and modify the Java package. I did however test the PDQ Deploy and it worked great. I had to get this out and the Java package kept failing with 'Not Applicable'.

Thanx teiresias this is exactly what is happening. I don't deploy the upgrade versions, I only deploy the versions that do not require an earlier version installed. Helps with new builds. Anyway, can you share what you changed? Like stcain said, I was starting to look at PDQ Deploy as Java and Google Chrome were just not…

Just for reference, I did not use the Upgrade version. If anyone else has used the stand-alone version, please let me know your results.

Did you push the (Upgrade) version or the stand-alone version?

Let me know how it goes if you don't mind.

Java 8 144 has been published, but after approval, it fails to install. The package shows as 'Not Applicable'. Has anyone else had this problem?

Any idea why a package would successfully install via Windows Update, but when you query the package to see if it is installed, it shows as failed?

Thanx! I was able to successfully create and deploy a package for the Dameware MRC client. : )

Well, the Dameware MRC client version 12.0.4 is working, what I am referring to is the actual Mini Remote Control service deployment. I can download it from SolarWinds, and I can also connect to a workstation and force the service upgrade. I was just wondering if it will be available to deploy via PM.

Will we ever see a Dameware Mini Remote Control service package? We have updated the client on our machines we use to remote control other workstations, but now the service needs to be upgraded on all workstation clients.

The PM WMI provider update seems to only be metadata. Are they being re-released? * Patch Manager WMI Providers 2.1.5.6002

Will the Dameware packages be available before the end of this week?

Thank you!!! 

I noticed that the Dameware Mini Remote Control packages have not been updated in awhile. I logged on to the SolarWinds portal and a newer version is available for download. Any idea when version 12.0.4 will be available in the PM catalog? Thanx!

Sorry for the late response. Thank you, I have already deployed this.

Adobe Flash player is up to 26.0.0.131 now. How soon will PM be updated with the new package? Thank you!

Thank you. I manually up with the synced up with the PM catalog and now both of these are showing. Weird, but it worked. Thanx again!

Any idea when the new Google Chrome installer ( Google Chrome 58.0.3029.81) will be released? It is not showing up in Software Publishing. Also, Java 8u131.
