Anyone out there have any luck pushing Desktop Central agent via Jamf? I get the error below trying to push the client I download from Desktop Central.
Installation failed. The installer reported: installer: Package name is ManageEngine DesktopCentral Agent
installer: Installing at base path /
installer: The install failed. (The Installer encountered an error that caused the installation to fail. Contact the software manufacturer for assistance. An error occurred while running scripts from the package βDesktopCentral_MacAgent.pkgβ.)

@ray.henry , I also use Manage Engine's DC and always run into issues using the agent. The only way to fix this issue is by re-packaging the agent on your own, here is what I normally do to package it via Composer:
1- Download the agent from the DC site
2- Open Composer and drag your package from step 1 into it
3- Create a folder structure as you see in the screenshot above
4- Package it 5- Copy the package to to your DP and create your policy
If this is a machine with an existing agent on it, you might want to configure Files and Processes in your policy so that the Agent restarts after the upgrade
And this is how the package looks like in Composer
Hope this helps
