https://www.systanddeploy.com/2020/04/error-with-oma-uri-in-intune-always-be.html

In this post I will show you a quick feedback about a stupid and annoying issue that everyone may occur with deploying OMA-URI.

Context
We wanted to manage Google Chrome with Intune.
For that you have to first create an OMA-URI to “ingest” Chrome ADMX.
Then we plan to set some policies like Home page, bookmarks…
The issue that the home page was not apply .


Our first step
To manage Chrome settings you have to use OMA-URI in Intune.
As mention previously the first step is is is to add Chrome ADMX .
For that proceed we is proceed will proceed as below .


Download Chrome ADMX 
1. Go tothis link.
2 . Go tothe part Chrome ADM / ADMX template
3. Click on Download
4 . Go topolicy_templates\windows\admx
5. The file we will need is Chrome.admx


Import ADMX in Intune
1. Go toIntune> Device Configuration
2. Go toprofile
3. Click on Create profile
4. In Platform, select Windows 10 and later
5. In Profile, select Custom
6. Click on Create
7. In the Name field type Import ADMX
8 . In the OMA – uri setting , click onAdd
9 . In theName field type Import ADMX
10. In OMA-URI field type the below one:
11. In Data type, select XML
12 . In the value field type the content of the chrome.admx




The issue
The next step is was was to configure the Chrome page .
Chrome is has has many policy available to configure its browser .
See here the list of all policy .  
To configure home page, we will use homepagelocation.
The OMA-URI part to use is the following:
Our issue was the policy has been created by following all rules.
However the home page was not applied.


Check Intunestatus
In the Intuneportal the CSP profile returns -2016281112 (Remediation failed) that can be translated to error code 0x87d1fde8.

Not very well explain .


Check on the the computer
Go toevent log
Go toDeviceManagement-Enterprise-Diagnostics-Provider
You can find the below event:


What the hell is going on.


A stupid issue
The issue was really stupid.
When you copy something from website or in the portal some characters may be wrong.
To configure the home page you have to use the value below:
In our case after copy this one the follow charater ” has been replace with ” .
See the overview :
This fuc.i.. character was the issue, what the helllllllll.


Now after changing this one the OMA-URI has been correctly applied.
On the computer type: chrome://policy then you should see the policies.
