Admin configuration compilation fails

Hi all,

I'm having problems trying to compile configuration from Casper Admin 9.3. I get the following error:

I have enough place on the local hard disk 125 GB.
It looks like the size of the temporary disk image created is not big enough..

Many thanks for your help ;)
kind regards

Hi @joe.farage,

Are you trying to compile on a SMB share?

Hi @bentoms, Thank you for answering. In the 9.4 release note there is still in Known Issues: [D-005612] Casper Admin fails to compile configurations if the master distribution point is a file share distribution point hosted on Windows Server.
I use a Windows Server with SMB. I hope they will fix it soon. Sometimes if the configuration has been modified, compilation could work.

in the mean time, perhaps you could use AutoDMG to compile your image?

I think alot of us are now using this instead of the compiling feature
