Servers EnterpriseWGM is not distributed with Server anymore, and hasn't been for some time (since Lion?)
However, it's still possible to download it, and old versions still work with Yoseimite (at least, it works for me). It may well be that some functionality has been lost, but as far as I know, the approved way to handle Home directories now is with the profile manager.

Servers EnterpriseI also got the same install fail message although I was expecting it.
The information I recall reading is that Workgroup Manager is not supported for use on Yosemite and hence also not supported on a Yosemite/Server 4.x Mac. However it is I believe supported on a Mavericks client connected to a Yosemite/Server 4.x machine.
It might be possible to either drag it in to the Applications folder on a Yosemite machine or have it on a Mavericks machine later upgraded to Yosemite but I would interpret these as also being unsupported configurations.
I would not expect a newer version of Workgroup Manager to be released.

Feb 16, 2015 7:10 PM in response to Sean Swayzeby Frost_y,Try installing Workgroup Manager 10.9 onto a Yosemite 10.10 base and if that then works upgrade to 10.10.1, rather than trying to install straight onto 10.10.1.

Feb 20, 2015 1:09 PM in response to Kevin Nealby theFerret,My experience is that it works fine to install on a 10.9 machine and continues to work fine if the machine is upgraded to 10.10.2. WGM also works fine against a 10.10.2 + Server 4.0.3 server.
