Hi All,
Suddenly today when enrolling new computers (running 10.11.4 and 10.11.5) we're seeing this about half way through our process in the jamf.log:

Fri Jun 03 11:15:26 asdf’s MacBook Pro jamf[6092]: Error executing command: ( "/usr/local/jamf/bin/jamfAgent", version
)
Fri Jun 03 11:15:26 asdf’s MacBook Pro jamf[6092]: Upgrading jamf agent...
Fri Jun 03 11:18:57 asdf’s MacBook Pro jamf[6092]: Error executing command: ( "/usr/bin/gunzip", "-t", "/Library/Application Support/JAMF/tmp/jamfAgent.gz"
)
Fri Jun 03 11:18:57 asdf’s MacBook Pro jamf[6092]: * -[NSConcreteTask terminationStatus]: task not launched

So why is this happening? We download a quick add.pkg for each machine we image - so the binary should be the latest and greatest right? After this error it continues on but nothing every happens - i assume the binary is hosed so no further tasks are actually able to complete.

I've got a ticket opened with support, but just posting here as well.

Thanks!
Matt
