ConfigMgr 2007 Status: Distribution Manager failed to process a package

SMSv4_Status__Distribution_Manager_failed_to_process_a_package_1_Rule (Rule)

Knowledge Base article:

Summary

The Distribution Manager failed to process a package.

Causes

This condition could occur because the package source directory contains files with long file names, and the total length of the path exceeds the maximum length that is supported by the operating system.

Resolutions

Reduce the number of folders that is defined for the package, shorten the filename, or consider bundling the files by using a compression utility.

Review previous status messages for further clarification about this problem.
