SCCM 2012R2 Distribution Point Transfer/Setup Error: 0x80040154

While troubleshooting package transfer failures for a Distribution Point in a customer’s SCCM 2012R2 environment, I came across the following errors:

After researching the issues and checking installed components on the Distribution Point, I noticed that IIS had been manually configured and the RDC (Remote Differential Compression) feature wasn’t added to the server.

After installing this and triggering a distribution to this DP everything kicked into life.
