Source to find OTA Install Error Codes and their Descriptions

We are using the profiles command to install the MDM enrollment profile and we see a few instances of this error in our log

Profiles command /usr/bin/profiles with arguments ["-I", "-F", "/var/folders/jw/qctd9mg519x7qfkj4zdcqnz80000gp/T/profile.mobilconfig"] failed. profiles install for file:'/var/folders/jw/qctd9mg519x7qfkj4zdcqnz80000gp/T/profile.mobilconfig' and user:'***' returned 101 (The operation couldn’t be completed. (OTAInstall error 101.))

Is there a document we can use to lookup us the error code and what it means ?

Based on this https://www.osstatus.com/search/results?platform=all&framework=all&search=-128 the OSStatus is User Canceled , we are trying to understand what 101 and 100 mean.

I have created a bug report @ https://bugreport.apple.com/web/?problemID=34207835 but havent heard back.

As it says.... 101 is an otherwise generic "The operation couldn't be completed" face palm error, loosely interpreted as 'something happened - don't ask me what - I gave up as a result, dilly dilly'.


Specific underlying causes behind that something vary case by case, so it's up to you to suss them.


I would want to know what percentage of total installs the 'few instances' actually represent, then decide if you're faced with something actionable.


I wouldn't bother with a given single event example until it exceeds 3 retries. I wouldn't bother at all if the installs are via Wi-Fi w/less than 4 retries where any yield over 75% is a good day.
