SBS 2008 migration: Error ClientDeployment.RedirOUTask

July 1, 2010 by jer0dh

Received in Installation Issues dialog after migration mode install of Windows 2008 SBS SP2. It reported “An error occurred while installing or configuring a Windows SBS application”

Found in C:program filesWIndows Small Business ServerlogsSBSSetup The following:


Beginning of task ClientDeployment.RedirOUTask
[5244] 100701.061103.7553: Task: Error, unable to modify the wellKnownObjects attribute. Verify that

the domain functional level of the domain is at least Windows Server 2003:
Busy
Redirection was NOT successful.

I know I changed the functional level of the domain to 2003 before. I just confirmed it.

In the SBS Migration document from Microsoft, you don’t have to raise the functional level of the domain if you still have a Windows 2000 domain controller..but with SBS, could you? So it does say that you can perform this same command using C:Windowssystem32redirUsr.exe to redirect the default user container and rdercmp.exe for the computer container.

Microsoft talks about it here:

This doesn’t stop the migration at all and we can look at it further later if need be.
