“ERROR: Upload transmission d3a29650-b117-4fd1-b1f5-45af089198e4 blockID 1 failed with status code ABORT and error code NoError”

I’ve just tried to add my Microsoft Intune subscription to ConfigMgr, but it’s failing with exceptions between data transmissions when the first upload to Microsoft Intune starts.

If I look in the Dmpuploader.log on my Primary I’m seeing the following sequence of errors:

StartUpload for replication group CloudDmp last sync version 0 …
StartUpload for replication group CloudDmp last sync version 0 …

Followed by the following error when the data transmissions is aborted:

ERROR: Upload transmission d3a29650-b117-4fd1-b1f5-45af089198e4 blockID 1 failed with status code ABORT and error code NoError

After this I see a series of errors when the upload process continues to fail:

ERROR: StartUpload exception: [The server was unable to process the request due to an internal error. For more information about the error, either turn on IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults (either from ServiceBehaviorAttribute or from the configuration behavior) on the server in order to send the exception information back to the client, or turn on tracing as per the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 SDK documentation and inspect the server trace logs.]
