Configuration Manager The legacy package does not have exactly one content.

“The legacy package does not have exactly one content”

When you encounter the error message “The legacy package does not have exactly one content” while connecting to a System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) distribution point with Content Library Explorer (CLE), it indicates that the package you are trying to access has issues with its content.

In SCCM, a package typically contains one or more files and resources required for the package to function correctly. Imidlertid, some legacy packages may not have exactly one content, which can cause issues with package deployment and management in SCCM.

To resolve this issue, you can use CLE to view the contents of the package and identify any discrepancies or missing files. CLE allows administrators to explore the content library and view the package contents, including the files, resources, and dependencies associated with the package.

Using CLE, you can identify any missing or duplicate files in the package and take the necessary steps to resolve the issue. This may involve re-packaging the software using modern tools or acquiring a pre-built package from the vendor.

Derudover, you may need to check the package source files, verify the package configuration settings, and ensure that the distribution points are correctly distributing the package content to the devices.

In conclusion, the error message “The legacy package does not have exactly one content” indicates issues with package content in SCCM. You can use CLE to identify and resolve the issue and ensure smooth and consistent package deployment in your environment.

To resolve this issue run the following Power Shell script (don’t forget to change the path to DataLib as you need):

$PathToDataLib = "E:\SCCMContentLib\DataLib" # Path to DataLib

####################################
# Get Legacy Package Folders
$folders = Get-ChildItem -LiteralPath $PathToDataLib | Where-Object { $_.Name.Length -ge 9 -and $_.Name.Length -le 11} | Select-Object -Property @{Name="Name";Expression={$_.Name.SubString(0,8)}}
$uniqueFolders = $folders | Select-Object -Property Name -Unique

# Display Statistics
Write-Host "Count of Folders found: $($folders.Count)"
Write-Host "Count of Unique Folders found: $($uniqueFolders.Count)"
Function Get-Duplicate {
param($array, [switch]$count)
begin {
$hash = @{}
}
process {
$array | %{ $hash[$_] = $hash[$_] + 1 }
if($count) {
$hash.GetEnumerator() | ?{$_.value -gt 1} | %{
New-Object PSObject -Property @{
Value = $_.key
Count = $_.value
}
}
}
else {
$hash.GetEnumerator() | ?{$_.value -gt 1} | %{$_.key}
} 
}
}

# Display Duplicated Packages
Get-Duplicate ($folders | Select -ExpandProperty Name) -count

When the script is complete – you get a package ID that has trouble. A better choice is to delete and create again this package.
