SCCM 2012 Client Package waiting for prestaged content

Image
During DP installation on CM 2012 some of my friends are getting this error like “Distribution Manager is waiting for Package XXX00001 content to be prestaged on the distribution point” in DP details view .isn’t it ? So where is the issue then, very strange...? Think about package distribution in SCCM 2007 there is error in package source version mismatch right!  This error is quite similar in CM 2012 and in troubleshooting of this part which I have noticed just redistribute the package again or the last option update the DP which is strongly prohibited in all DP’s infrastructure. Please see below the screenshot hope it will help. 1. First of all check the DP is having Prestage option enable or not. If yes then disable it for short term. 2. Now locate the package and redistribute the package. And the last option is update the DP, which is update the all DP (might be a bad suggestion)
