This is what setuperr.log says:

Warning:
Setup was unable to invoke external program .\$1\Install\XPlode\XPlodelog.cmd because of the following error:
CreateProcess returned error 2 (2).


***

Error:
Setup was unable to execute the commands in $OEM$\OEMFILES\cmdlines.txt.

***

Will try what alanoll says, that is indeed easier than messing around with those .cmd files

December 27, 2005

cmdlines.txt file:

[COMMANDS]
".\XPlode\XPlodelog.cmd"

XPlodelog.cmd file:

@echo off
FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\CD.txt SET CDROM=%%i:
start /wait %CDROM%\$OEM$\XPlode\XPlode.exe /log:"C:\XPlode.log" /console
pause

XPlode dir is in the $OEM$ folder.

Nothing wrong in my eyes ...

it doesn't do anything

C:\Windows\Setuperr.log, is that a log file from the windows installation or something? Will see it when it's completely installed

oh, btw, i'm installing Windows 2003, there is no difference with the Windows XP installation is there? (eccept for those lines in winnt.sif)

Strange,

it seems I can't install from any other folder than $OEM$\$1\Install\XPlode.

I edit both the cmdlines.txt and XPlodelog.cmd file to the new directories (and replace the XPlode folder to that directory) but it doesn't seem to work!

I think it is something in cmdlines.txt, as I have seen it doesn't do anything if there are any mistakes in it (tested it by giving some folders etc. that don't exists).

strange thing!

December 27, 2005

Didn't think about that immediately! Better to do that as it hans't got any sence to copy those files to the hard drive.

Will see later to install everything from the cd.

jeroen.

December 27, 2005

It finally worked!

It installed via XPlode from the cd

this is my cmdlines.txt flie:

[COMMANDS]
".\$1\Install\XPlode\XPlodelog.cmd"

This is my XPlodelog.cmd file:

@echo off
FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\CD.txt SET CDROM=%%i:
start /wait %CDROM%\$OEM$\$1\Install\XPlode\XPlode.exe /log:"C:\XPlode.log" /console
pause

Hope it works for you too!

EDIT: By installing from the cd, you can test out your XPlode file, looks verry handy to me! When my XPlode file is correct, I will try to install from the HD like you said before!

greetz,

jeroen.

I was just thinking, is it possible to install from cd using the cmdlines.txt method? This saves me a lot of time because otherwise I always have to wait for about a half an hour to test something out.

I would do it using the CD.txt method:

FOR %%i IN (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%i:\CD.txt SET CDROM=%%i:

K, thanks anyway

I just did what Bi0haZarD told me to doe, but it still didn't load.

cmdlines.txt file:

[COMMANDS]
"Install\XPlode\XPlodelog.cmd"

XPlodelog.cmd file:

@echo off
start /wait %SystemDrive%\Install\XPlode\XPlode.exe /log:"C:\XPlode.log" /console
pause

I think the problem is in one of those two files!

December 27, 2005

is XPlode even being copied over to the harddrive?

Yeah, XPlode is being copied over to the harddrive.

@Bi0haZarD, I will try it later today, will let you know if it has fixed the problem,

@ Wraith, What's it with those pre- and post-execute errors? Should I fix something? And about it's running too fast, what do you exactly mean ?

I have to say that XPlode works like it should when Windows is started and I run XPlode manually (by the batch file)! (BSPlayer is installed like it should be)

Thx,

jeroen

December 27, 2005

It doesn't say anything, because the file isn't there. XPlode isn't even opened.

If I run XPlode manually after install, then it says this:

I have been searching all day for this.

XPlode 4 won't load from my cmdlines.txt file. When Win2003 is installed, nothing happened. But if i start xplode after Win2003 install, it installs my programs, like it should do in the installation.

This is my cmdlines.txt file (placed in the $OEM$ directory):

[COMMANDS]
"%SystemDrive%\Install\XPlode\XPlodelog.cmd"

This is my XPlodelog.cmd file (placed in $OEM$\$1\Install\XPlode\):

@echo off
start /wait %SystemDrive%\Install\XPlode\XPlode.exe /xml:"#XPLODE#\XPlode-GFXinstall.xml" /log:"C:\XPlode.log" /console
pause

This is my XPlode-GFXinstall.xml file (placed in $OEM$\$1\Install\XPlode\):

<XPlode4>
	<config>
		<!-- include the standard config stuff -->
		<include file="#XPLODE#\include-StdConfig.xml" />
		<!--
			Block containing all settings for the current display plugin.

			This will be dependent on which plugin used, so check 
				documentation for that specific plug.
		-->
		<display plugin='#XPLODE#\XPlodeGFXInstall.x4d'>
			<show total='16' after='8' subcount='true' />
			<font face='Verdana' antialias='true' small='8' large='13' />
			<!-- note the position attribute - it is listed in 'x,y' positions. -->
			<!-- 0..8 still may be used. -->
			<window width='420' height='410' position='5' /> <!-- background="#XPLODE#\images\gfxinstall.png" -->
			<windowmode border='true' ontop='false' />
			<colours>
				<!-- the text colour and position for the header text -->
				<header x='4' y='27' fore='#FFFFFF' />
				<!-- the text colour and position for the footer - 
					width tells XPlode how wide the footer is (including progress) -->
				<footer x='4' y='380' width='400' fore='#FFFFFF' />
				<!-- standard progress bar colours -->
				<progress border='#000000' back='#FFFFFF' fore='#526FA3' />
				<!-- text colours, position and width for the items listing -->
				<main x='16' y='65' width='388' fore='#FFFFFF' current='#FFFF00' description='#FFFF80' overlay='#FFFFFF44'/>
			</colours>
		</display>
	</config>

	<!-- include the items list -->
	<include file="#XPLODE#\include-Items.xml" />
</XPlode4>

This is my include-Items.xml file (placed in $OEM$\$1\Install\XPlode\):

<XPlode4>
	<pre-execute>
		<hidewindow>
			<title>ConsoleWindowClass</title>
		</hidewindow>
	</pre-execute>
	<post-execute>
		<showwindow>
			<title>ConsoleWindowClass</title>
		</showwindow>
	</post-execute>

	<items>
		<item display="BSplayer 1.37.826">
			<execute display='Programma'>
				<program>%SystemDrive%\Install\Apps\BSPlayer_1.37.826.exe</program>
				<arguments>/S</arguments>
			</execute>
		</item>
	</items>
</XPlode4>

At the moment I have only BSPlayer as an app because I want to make XPlode work before adding all my apps etc.

hope someone finds what I'm doing wrong!

thanks in advance!

jeroen.

I'm kind of having the same problem,

My folders aren't copied too. OemPreinstall=Yes is inside my winnt.sif

I'm trying to install via XPlode, but it doesn't seem to work because of my folders aren't being copied.

Anybody thinks he knows the problem ?

thx in advance!

jeroen.

EDIT: Believe it or not, but it does work now :-S, I didn't change anything, only retried in VMWare. No need for searching anymore ;-)

thx :-)
