Hello, I am having a hard time trying to install applications via my WDS server. I have no problems whatsoever in installing, capturing and deploying images but somehow so far I have not been able to install applications during an unattended instalation of Windows 7 x64. I have the applications in the same server share as the images and I am trying to run Synchronous Commands to do silent instalations of Acrobat Reader and SQL Server Express 2008. The commands syntax is correct but I had no sucess. I tried running the commands in the deployments stage but I always got an error. Now I am trying to run them in the audit stage but so far I achieved nothing; the OS install perfectly but none of the applications will. I have to admit that I don't fully understand the audit passes but I believe this is possible. So far I have been doing this using VMware with a Win2K8 R2 server as WDS server but I really want to do this in the production scenario This is my ImageUnattend.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend"> <settings pass="specialize"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <ComputerName>*</ComputerName> <RegisteredOrganization>X Corp</RegisteredOrganization> <RegisteredOwner>XXX</RegisteredOwner> </component> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-TCPIP" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <Interfaces> <Interface> <Ipv4Settings> <DhcpEnabled>true</DhcpEnabled> </Ipv4Settings> <Ipv6Settings> <DhcpEnabled>true</DhcpEnabled> </Ipv6Settings> <Identifier>Local Area Connection</Identifier> </Interface> </Interfaces> </component> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-UnattendedJoin" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <Identification> <Credentials> <Domain>x.corp.local</Domain> <Password>Pass</Password> <Username>Administrator</Username> </Credentials> <JoinDomain>x.corp.local</JoinDomain> </Identification> </component> </settings> <settings pass="oobeSystem"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <UserAccounts> <AdministratorPassword> <Value>QQBrAGUAbgBhAHQAbwBuAEEAZABtAGkAbgBpAHMAdAByAGEAdABvAHIAUABhAHMAcwB3AG8AcgBkAA==</Value> <PlainText>false</PlainText> </AdministratorPassword> </UserAccounts> <RegisteredOrganization>X Corporation</RegisteredOrganization> <RegisteredOwner>XXX</RegisteredOwner> </component> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-International-Core" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <InputLocale>pt-pt</InputLocale> <UILanguage>en-US</UILanguage> <UserLocale>pt-pt</UserLocale> <SystemLocale>pt-pt</SystemLocale> </component> </settings> <settings pass="offlineServicing"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-LUA-Settings" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <EnableLUA>false</EnableLUA> </component> </settings> <settings pass="auditSystem"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Deployment" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <Reseal> <Mode>OOBE</Mode> </Reseal> </component> </settings> <settings pass="auditUser"> <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Deployment" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <RunSynchronous> <RunSynchronousCommand> <Credentials> <Domain>x.corp.local</Domain> <Password>Pass</Password> <Username>Administrator</Username> </Credentials> <Path>\\NAT-SRVW2K8-DC1\REMINST\sql-2008-express.cmd</Path> <Description>SQL Server 2008 Express</Description> <Order>1</Order> </RunSynchronousCommand> <RunSynchronousCommand> <Credentials> <Domain>x.corp.local</Domain> <Password>Pass</Password> <Username>Administrator</Username> </Credentials> <Description>Adobe Reader</Description> <Order>2</Order> <Path>\\NAT-SRVW2K8-DC1\REMINST\"AdbeRdr910_en_US.exe /sALL /rs /msi /qn"</Path> </RunSynchronousCommand> </RunSynchronous> </component> </settings> <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="catalog:d:/sources/install_windows 7 ultimate.clg" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" /> </unattend> What am I doing wrong?
