Desktop Background Config Not Working

We've replaced our lab computers with M2 MacMinis running Ventura and the package I set up to install the desktop background for the old computers is installing, but the config policy is not applying the image.  Do I need to replace the spaces with %20?  I didn't before.

not seeing that.. maybe test by setting an included desktop pic.... if that works its something funky with your pics.

the package and config profile was working fine on the mac's that we're retiring. But they were Intel chips. Wondering if its something to do with the M2 chip.

it looks like the package that was distributing the images only works on intel.  I rebuilt it in composer on a M1 Mac Studio and it works now. Strange thing is I checked and didn't see any Rosetta error. But it works now.
