RunWPI.exe error in 6.3

[koszopal]

hi

RunWPI.exe runned from cdrom via cmdlines.txt set registry key to C:\WPI\WPI.hta

as it should set to CDROM drive and then \WPI\WPI.hta

for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%~dp0") do set drive=%%i:
set wpipath=%drive%\wpi

SET KEY=HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnceEx

REG ADD %KEY%\WPI /V 1 /D "%wpipath%\WPI.hta" /f

Here is the current code run_wpi.exe uses I have changed nothing in it since i released it.

I have yet to encounter this error, but you are not the only one to report it.

i removed RunWPI.exe and used this which uses nlite.cmd

for /f "tokens=3" %%i IN ('reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup /v "SourcePath" ^| findstr "REG_SZ"') do set SOURCE=%%i

%SOURCE%\WPI\WPI.hta

and worked

Based on your very limited info and description i have to make a guess here

("%~dp0") Returns the drive letter that the script is run from

so if your script (this line --> "for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%~dp0") do set drive=%%i:") is run from the C drive which apparently it is... then DUH!

that script only works if it is run from the drive that WPI resides on

my guess is cmdlines.txt is calling a .cmd file on the c drive that contains this line

[BabisSougias]

i removed RunWPI.exe and used this which uses nlite.cmd

for /f "tokens=3" %%i IN ('reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup /v "SourcePath" ^| findstr "REG_SZ"') do set SOURCE=%%i

%SOURCE%\WPI\WPI.hta

and worked

Hey can you explain exactly what you did?

I deleted RunWPI.exe and replaced it with a RunWPI.cmd file that contained your script. Then on cmdlines.txt i changed the entry "RunWPI.exe" with "RunWPI.cmd". Is this correct?

Also about your order issues. Make sure when configuring an application on WPI that you set the order number on the top right box. I used full numbers meaning 000005 instead of 5, 000015 instead of 15 etc.... Also on the options menu uncheck the option "Install by Category".
