Helps if I look at the right version of the script ... Which account is being used to invoke the script on the remote host?
For whatever reason, that account does not have permissions to write to the system's event log.

I'm using version 1.68 per the script file itself. I'm running the script via remote Powershell Invoke Command: #SCCM Client Install Import-Module ActiveDirectory $DenServers = Get-ADComputer -Filter 'Name -like "XXX-API-SOAP*"' -Properties Name ForEach ($Server in $DenServers.Name) { try { Write-Host "Copying files to $Server...."

That would mean that whichever account you are using does not have permissions to check one of the services configured to be checked. So... - Which of the script are you using version? - How are you running the script on these systems? - Which services are configured to be checked? - Can you post the log file please?

Having a weird error though - there are 16 web servers that in theory are identically configured. However on half of them it works fine and on the other half I get this: C:\Windows\Temp\ConfigMgrStartup.vbs(497, 3) Microsoft VBScript runtime error: Permission denied + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (C:\Windows\Temp...rmission denied:String) [], RemoteException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError + PSComputerName : XXX-API-SOAP-06 This would appear to be not having enough permissions to write to the event log. After a quick look at basic registry permissions, machine permissions, local admins etc I can't see a delta between a working machine and a non-working machine. Probably missing something obvious but any ideas??
