Hello

Platform | Windows 2003 Standard x64

I am a bit new to WPI but have found it intuitive none the less and very useful.

However I have one problem so far, after the install has finished the WPI window stays open with no option to close as seen in the screenshot.

Is there an option I can use to display a Close button?

How is this handled normally?

I also have the option for the server to restart once installation is complete but this does not seem to work.

Any help would be appreciated

I can only surmise that "Start2003.bat" does not have a proper "exit" entry in the last line.

WPI has always exited on its own. In your case it is not seeing the last command finish.

I do have an exit and the script does execute and then exit fully.

Here is the code with the exit in it

@ECHO OFF
TITLE AMS Install
COLOR 0F

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:\WIN51AS.SP2 (SET CDROM=%%I:& GOTO DONECD)

Looks fine. Put

CMD \C

in front of the script and see what it does.

Its not only this script it doesnt close down on its even after a software install i.e. acrobat 6 etc..

I can try CMD \C if you still think it will make a difference

I will confirm the version of WPI as well when I am back in work on Monday but it was very recently I downloaded it.

Since you are on Windows 2003, it may be a permission issue.

And I meant

CMD /C "D:\WPI\Install\AUTO\START2003.BAT"

Edited June 6, 200917 yr by mritter

I mean its not a big deal as I know it works perfectly on XP, Vista and Windows 7.

I am logged on as the local admin so permissions shouldn't be an issue.

Which command closes WPI? Maybe for my 2003 disks I can force it to be called any time an installation is done through WPI?

Change this in WPIScripts\core.js

function Pause(secs,milli)
{
 position="core.js";
 whatfunc="Pause()";

 var duration, sleepCmd;

 duration=(secs*1000)+milli;
 sleepCmd='"'+wpipath+'\\Tools\\Sleep.exe" -m '+duration;
 SleepShell.Run(sleepCmd,0,true);
}

to

function Pause(secs,milli)
{
 position="core.js";
 whatfunc="Pause()";

 var duration, sleepCmd;

 duration=(secs*1000)+milli;
 sleepCmd='cmd /c "'+wpipath+'\\Tools\\Sleep.exe" -m '+duration;
 SleepShell.Run(sleepCmd,0,true);
}

It may work, it may do nothing. Something to try.

Changing that line actually breaks WPI with the following error, nothing happens after this
