7Customizer - a Windows 7 Customization and Deployment tool

[TripNRaVeR]

this new version (0.1.4) works like charm thumbup.gif

i keep testing this tool, thnx for creating this thing, i'll keep you informed

Glad it worked for you. please note that there is a slight problem with the unateended part .It still does not auto logon to the administrator account

So I recommend you DO NOT skip user creation until I resolve this issue.

Regards

the only thing i have done is trying to integrate language packs in dfferent ways, so that i can say, at least for me, the integrator is working

but i had a slight problem with the language packs, i did get it to work to manual delete "batch" on every step

so basicly i did;

- extract tool (tried many different maps, partitions, disks)

- run as admin

- disable uac (just to be sure)

- select imagex, dism

- select source

- with version 0.1.4 it reads the image with no problems and i can select a version

- with version 0.1.3 it gave the error i've mentioned before that batch is in use or something like that

- than i go to language tab

- select my lp.cab

- go to apply

- i got error about batch

- deleted batch

- clicked apply once again and the tool is working

i dont have a clue what this is all about but i keep testing and trying and help you to fix all the bugs

maybe this is not your fault but is it my computer that f***ed the thing up

btw are you working on, or are you planning to make options for component removal?

cheers

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

<configuration>

<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Get the latest version and post your log file.

Updates still not working here, running W7 x86 running Customizer.exe as Admin.

Regardless if I install one update or several they do not inject into the wim. I proved this by opening up the install.wim with windows 7 wsim & sure enough no updates found.

When I press the apply button programs executes & closes promptly saying it's finished? See the cust. log attached.

I do hope you can iron these bugs out cause W7 is proving to be a tricky UA installing updates & injecting drivers into the wim. I put this down mainly to elevated permissions.

Thanks MAVERICKS CHOICE for the feedback. I looked into the log file and it seems that everything went OK. However, I think I know where is the problem. I think that the dism did not work for you so I suggest, for know, you reinstall WAIK and try again.

I will update the logging feature to be more informative. Wait for the next release. Until than we will wait for other members feedback.

No worries, I'd be surpised if Dism.exe is the root problem cause I have been using this recently with no issues?

[Guest Jatinx]

Using 0.1.7 I got the following error. By the way where is the log?

@patelsiraj1

From your log, it seems that imagex did not get the information for the images OR 7Customizer did not start imagex correctly.

Is the image already mounted? If yes unmount the image. Is the image in a writable drive? If the image is in a cd I think it will not work.

If these did not work for you wait for the next release.

No worries, I'd be surpised if Dism.exe is the root problem cause I have been using this recently with no issues?

If that is the case, then I think 7Customizer did not start dism correctly.Check my suggestions to @patelsiraj1. It might work for you.
