Problem creating new MSI file for Officexp

[legnireb]

Hi guys

I followed the guide to create an unattended officexp guide.

I installed the orktools.

I ran the Custom Installation Wizard and at the Finish i received this error:

"Buffer passed to Getrecordfield/Getnextline is too short.The MSI file is corrupt."

any ideas why this happens?

I copyed all the files from the cd to E:\xp_isos\xp_sp2\$OEM$\$1\INSTALL\Officexp"

I used PRO.msi.

hi guys

Solved the problem.

Wrong version of orktools.

Glad that you solved the issue. Just a small advice, why not simply install Office XP straight from CD-ROM instead of copying the installation files to your hard disk first and then installing it? Instead of using $OEM$-folders, you could use RunOnceEx to install Office XP straight from CD-ROM.

hi guys!

Arie ths for your advice...

But i am integrating officexp sp3 and the updates after sp3..

i already did it..

and now i made the new MST following the unattended guide... i would like to crete a multi boot dvd...with a part of unattended apps and nornal part without them...i think you will understand..

Now i need to code my runonceexc.cmd and i'am stuck here..

Here is my runOnceex.cmd with some code lines i entered..already with the code for some apps silent installers i made..

@Echo Off

SET PP=%SystemDrive%\INSTALL\

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

REG ADD %KEY% /V TITLE /D "Installing Applications" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /VE /D "K-Light Codec 2.5.0" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\000 /V 1 /D "%PP%Klcodec250f.exe /s" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Ahead Nero Burning Rom 6.6.0.6" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "REGEDIT /S"%PP%nero6606.reg" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 2 /D "%PP%nero6606.exe" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\003 /VE /D "Dvd Decrypter 3.5.4.0" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\003 /V 1 /D "%PP%dvd_decrypter3540.exe" /f

I am thinking doing like this..

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /VE /D "OFFICE XP WITH SP3" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\002 /V 1 /D "%PP%config.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-" /f

I wrote "config.exe" because in officexp folder i don't have a setup.exe.

What do you think about it?

ths in advance...
