"bitstransfer.format.ps1xml" copy error

[bynkook]

After format primary partition, during copying files, error message is

"bitstransfer.format.ps1xml" not found.

I attached log file.

HFSLIP.txt

This file sounds strange to me. I think you are trying to slipstream something that you are not supposed to. Please double check your hotfixes against mimo's or muppet hunters lists and delete the offending hotfix(s).

Hi Kiki Burgh!

You might want to correct your link you mentioned in the post above. It goes nowhere!

Cheers and Regards.

[bynkook]

yes, the "WindowsXP-KB968930-x86.." was the culprit.

Only thing i've done is just removing 968930 from /HF folder

and I dont see any error message now.

I think HFSLIP has some problem with 968930 hotfix.

Thanks!!!!!

[Kiki Burgh]

you're welcome ... glad to be able to help pointing that out ...

I've had the same problem too; I suspect it's due to the filenames having extensions of >3 characters, but I could be wrong. All I know is that all the *.ps1xml files are failing.

I'm in the process of running a test where I put that hotfix into HFSVCPACK_SW1 instead of HF to see if it installs it. However my EeePC isn't exactly the fastest machine around, so it takes a while to test the install

hi! these are the likely offending files in:

WindowsXP-KB968930-x86-ENG.exe

Windows Management Framework Core package (Windows PowerShell 2.0 and WinRM 2.0) (KB968930):

[font="Courier New"]\HF\968930\bitstransfer.psd1
\HF\968930\importallmodules.psd1
\HF\968930\bitstransfer.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\certificate.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\diagnostics.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\dotnettypes.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\filesystem.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\getevent.types.ps1xml
\HF\968930\help.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\powershellcore.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\powershelltrace.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\registry.format.ps1xml
\HF\968930\types.ps1xml
\HF\968930\wsman.format.ps1xml[/font]

the only others having the same files (but not as many as above, only this: powershelltrace.format.ps1xml) are:

WindowsXP-KB926139-v2-x86-ENU.exe

Windows PowerShell 1.0 English-Language Installation Package for Windows XP (KB926139) &

Windows PowerShell 1.0 Localized Installation Package for Windows XP (KB926140)

Windows PowerShell 1.0 Multilingual User Interface Package for Windows XP (KB926141)

... in my previous build though using hfslip-1.5.0 (last 071607), powershell 1.0 was installed correctly with shortcuts visible in the start menu ... could be worth a look how this kind of files should be handled ... cheers!

checked on the following updates too (just for possibilities) but no similar files exist:

msxml4-KB973685-enu.exe

Description of an update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 3

msxml4-KB973686-enu.exe

Description of an update for Microsoft MSXML Core Services 6.0 Service Pack 2

WindowsXP-KB973687-x86-ENU.exe

Description of updates for Microsoft MSXML Core Services 3.0 and MSXML Core Services 6.0

WindowsXP-KB969084-x86-enu.exe

Description of the Remote Desktop Connection 7.0 client update for Remote Desktop Services (RDS) for Windows XP SP3, Windows Vista SP1, and Windows Vista SP2

* here's a background about_Format.ps1xml

SHORT DESCRIPTION

The Format.ps1xml files in Windows PowerShell define the default display

of objects in the Windows PowerShell console. You can create your own

Format.ps1xml files to change the display of objects or to define default

displays for new object types that you create in Windows PowerShell.

nb: removed urls as i got this prompt:

You have entered a link to a website that the administrator does not allow links to

upon submission of this post ... just do a quick search fr ms website.

hmm ... strange, i tried it again & it got through ...

Tried but failed

only way I could get it to install correctly was to make a switchless installer and put it in HFGUIRUNONCE

I had same problem until I removed KB968930.

I think tommyp and mimo should consider this problem quickly.

[Glowy]

I think tommyp and mimo should consider this problem quickly.

Why quickly? it's not a critical update.... most of the poeple don't need it.

[Mim0]

I think tommyp and mimo should consider this problem quickly.

May way to consider this problem is that I will put the info in HFSLIP file-checker that KB968930 is not compatible with the current HFSLIP
