Quickpost:
\nToday I installed the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager R2 Console on another Windows 8.1 machine. I already deployed my package on my Workstation, so I didn’t expect to get any issues. But after the Installation, I wasn’t able to connect to my SCCM hierarchy, the well-known error “Configuration Manager cannot connect to the site (….”:
\n\"SCCM<\/a><\/p>\n

Because I was sure, everything is Ok with my account, I knew it has to be something with the Network\/Firewall or with the Installation. I then uninstalled the console, and Installed it again, but I had no success. I then uninstalled it again, deleted registry Keys and installed the console, still no success. I then disabled the Firewall on the Client to check if there is a network issue, still no Connection possible.
\nAnd now? I then began to compare the registry entries from the Windows 8.1 machines, and found out, that the Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\ConfigMgr10\\AdminUI\\QueryProcessors\\WQL<\/code> was missing.
\nThis Key has on the machine where the console is functional three String Values:
\n\"SCCMConsole_connect-error02\"<\/a>
\nTake this registry Export as example:
\nWindows Registry Editor Version 5.00<\/p>\n

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\Microsoft\\ConfigMgr10\\AdminUI\\QueryProcessors\\WQL]
\n\"Assembly Path\"=\"C:\\\\Program Files (x86)\\\\Microsoft Configuration Manager\\\\AdminConsole\\\\bin\\\\AdminUI.WqlQueryEngine.dll\"
\n\"Depends On\"=\"\"
\n\"Type\"=\"Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider.WqlQueryEngine.WqlConnectionManager\"<\/code><\/p>\n

After adding those values on the other machine, the console started working.<\/p>\n

Hope this helps, Martin<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
