If you get the following error in the deployment log file:

 

“Deployment failed with the following exception:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040208)
   at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo)
   at System.Management.ManagementObject.Initialize(Boolean getObject)
   at System.Management.ManagementBaseObject.get_Properties()
   at System.Management.ManagementBaseObject.GetPropertyValue(String propertyName)
   at Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.Deployment.Reports.SrsWmi.get_ConfigPath()
   at Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.Deployment.Reports.ReportLibraryDeployer.DeployBusinessLogicAssemblies(IEnumerable`1 businessLogicAssemblies, DeploymentLogger logger)
   at Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.Deployment.Reports.ReportLibraryDeployer.Deploy(IEnumerable`1 reportLibrariesToDeploy, IEnumerable`1 transitiveReferenceClosure, IEnumerable`1 cultures, DeploymentLogger logger, Func`2 connectionStringModifier)”

 

You just need to disable the UAC (User Account Control), or to run the Deployment tool with right-click “Run as administrator”. As it says in the Dynamics AX installation guide.

 

Duh…
