Some interesting App Install Problems -ADVICE PLS-

[xtremexxx]

Ok so I tried my latest unattended build ...

Install went fine and it got to the RunOnceEx.cmd

I will post only the stuff that aparently didn't do anything ( double checked in Add/Remove Programs ):

REG ADD %KEY%\025 /VE /D "IrfanView 3.91" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\IrfanView\iview391.exe /silent /folder="C:\Program Files\irfanview" /desktop=1 /group=1 /allusers=0 /assoc=1" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 2 /D "%systemdrive%\install\IrfanView\all_plugins.exe /silent" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\030 /VE /D "K-Lite codec pack 2.10" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\030 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\KLiteCodec\klcodec210f.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- /COMPONENTS=& "#34;bsplayer,divx,divxdec,xvid,xviddec,3ivx,wmv,dvd,mpeg2ligos,indeo,indeo4,indeo32,i263,mp3audi
o,wmaaudio,ac3audio,oggvorbis,musepack,vsfilter,oggvorbissplitter,matroska,fourcc,gspot,disg400,disf
fdshow"" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\050 /VE /D "PowerQuest PartitionMagic 8.0.1242" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PMagic\setup.exe /s /v/qn" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\050 /V 2 /D "REGEDIT /S %systemdrive%\install\PMagic\register.reg" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "TweakUI 2.10 Powertoy" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PowerToys\TweakUI.msi /qb" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "Task Switcher Powertoy" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\PowerToys\TaskswitchPowertoySetup.exe /s /v/qn" /f

What do the experts say ?

Thanks in advance.

For the first one, you need to enclose the folder location with \'s -

/folder=\"C:\Program Files\irfanview\"

since there is a space in the directory name - Program Files

or even like this

/folder=\"%systemdrive%\Program Files\irfanview\"

For the Partition Magic install, put the REGEDIT line ahead of the install line.

7/30/2004 - 23:46:15: Can't create destination directory!

Please check your write permissions and system policies!

Try to create the destination folder manually and restart.: \"C:\Program Files\irfanview\

Surely that's not the correct way as you said

for klite codec pack use /LOADINF="put path here/name of file.inf" to make inf <-- (don't this with ur unattended, setup in os u currently are using) and (do this with ur unattended cd) --> /SAVEINF="put path here/name of file.inf" instead of listing all the components.

%systemdrive%\install\KLiteCodec\klcodec210f.exe /SAVEINF="%systemdrive%\install\KLiteCodec\klite.inf"

Like this ? And can you show me a correct inf file ?

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "TweakUI 2.10 Powertoy~~~~~~~~

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%~~~~~~~~~~~~

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /VE /D "Task Switcher Po~~~~~~~~~~~~

REG ADD %KEY%\065 /V 1 /D "%~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can't!

This is what I'm saying about the /f usage. If we don't use /f we can be informed if there is a duplicate.

You're right, I guess that should fix my problem, but what shouldn't they install same time still ? Anyway I changed it and I will test, thanks !!!

This is the correct syntax for 025-->1:

REG ADD %KEY%\025 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\IrfanView\iview391.exe /silent /folder=\"C:\Program Files\irfanview\" /desktop=1 /group=1 /allusers=0 /assoc=1" /f

But if you still have problems with directory creation, try placing a MD command above the syntax.

For 030-->1, just keep one quote:

This fdshow"" /f must be fdshow" /f

[xtremexxx]

"%systemdrive%\install\KLiteCodec\klcodec210f.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- /COMPONENTS=& "#34;bsplayer,divx,divxdec,xvid,xviddec,3ivx,wmv,dvd,mpeg2ligos,
indeo,indeo4,indeo32,i263,mp3audio,wmaaudio,ac3audio,oggvorbis,musepack,
vsfilter,oggvorbissplitter,matroska,fourcc,gspot,disg400,disffdshow"" /f

"" is needed one from "codecs" and one for syntax

And MD how to be placed in runonceex?

CMD /C MD %programfiles%\IrfanView

Correct?

EDIT : there is a bug in post, pasting long lines... It doesn't show the " for instance and even adds new stuff .... I'll segment the line

[mazin]

You can have the directory created directly by RunOnceEX.cmd without importing it to the Registry.

I mean to use this line: MD "%systemdrive%\Program Files\IrfanView" without REG ADD %KEY%...

Also, in your first post, you said COMPONENTS=& & #34... and now you say COMPONENTS=&"#34...

Which one do you mean to be right?
