Setup was unable to compile the file DiscoveryStatus.mof



You start client Installation and realize that install fails with error code 80041002, even cleaning up install directories or repairing WMI doesn’t help

Symptoms: sms setup starts and finishes with error and clients will not be installed, the ccmsetup.log shows the error “Setup was unable to compile the file DiscoveryStatus.mof”

Applies to:  SCCM 2012

Troubleshooting Steps:
1.       Open CMD in the administrator command prompt
2.       Navigate to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Policy Platform
3.       mofcomp ExtendedStatus.mof
4.       Retry the CM client installation

Root Cause Analysis: Configuration manager 2012 clients will depend on the Lantern Services Microsoft Policy platform Processor
