XPC Test, Updated Version for Testing

**GreenMachine** · June 2, 2004

@johann83: First look at your logs files do not show anything. I have made a few more changes, and will be posted an updated version of XPCTEST either today or tomorrow. I did just test this latest version, and did not have the symptoms you mention. I have also switched from file size to check sum for download file integration, so in this way we can be sure we are using the exact same failsafe list. So hang tight a bit, and then please test the next release, and see if the problem is still there. I'll get back to you ...

@mmarable: Basically, when run from a "clean installation" (e.g. no XPCREATE.INI) XPCREATE will look for the XP source, and copy it into the XPCREATE directory. It will update/create XPCREATE.INI to reflect the new source location. Also, when a service pack is slipstreamed, it is slipstreamed into the source, not the working copy, and the service pack is put aside for safe keeping in the OLDFILES directory. In short, yes, the XP CD is only needed the first time.

@johann83: From the website, I quote:

System Requirements:
- Windows 2000/XP/2003 Server Operating System.
- Several Gigabyte of available hard disk space.
- NTFS file system with 8.3 File Name Creation enabled.
- A CD-R Recorder.

I know which one is missing ...

**johann83** · June 2, 2004

Heh. You've got to be kidding... I guess I should RTFM, huh? Anyhow, I re-enabled 8.3 name creation and will try again. Since my current install is hosed up, I'd rather get it straightened tonight, but I'll still try out the new version when you post it. Thanks for the help.

PS Out of curiosity, how did you know what the problem was?

**GreenMachine** · June 2, 2004

Long file names in SVCPACK.INF. I always used to disable 8.3, but that with XCOPY is a very nice and easy way to rename the files for ISO compatability.

You are fine using either version at the moment: the end result has not changed.

**mmarable** · June 2, 2004

I like this GM, I really like this. I first tried XPCreate when it still had menus and such and I've got to tell you, going to this current method has been fantastic. XPCreate is well thought out and executed very cleanly.

You've done a excellent job, GM.

**GreenMachine** · June 2, 2004

Thanks, mmarable. Works for me!

**Virindi** · June 2, 2004

All download-list languages SHOULD be finished Friday, but no definate promises. I would say Thursday, but it's going to take some time to download all the hotfixes in each language to create MD5 sums

hi there

I recently dled the May30 version of xptest

I included sata drivers and etc..

it was for my friend, he loved it

no problems encountered

once again Thanks!!!

I didn't try the downloader since I already have the patches and the fact that I'm on 56k right now

**GreenMachine** · June 3, 2004

Good to hear, X'Mac. 56K? You must be desperate!

**Virindi** · June 3, 2004

The download list for Windows 2000 Pro English has been added, although I am not in a position to test it right now. Perhaps someone who actually uses Windows 2000 Pro can see if it works.

**Apollyon** · June 4, 2004

where has it been added? at the xpcreate website?

**Virindi** · June 4, 2004

You should probably read the rest of the thread before asking something like that

**XtremeMaC** · June 5, 2004

heh like maybe the 1st post on the thread's supposed to give u more info

@GM yes very desperate, trying to get dsl but the phone company is acting very lazy these days (maybe its the rain or something )

Remarks :

Q818043_W2K_SP5_x86 not available in French at Windows Update Catalog

Can you give me temporary access to your FTP to upload French version of IE6.EXE IE packer. PM sent to you.

If someone is interested to give feedback, you're welcome.

My source CD is Windows 2000 MUI and use English updates. I haven't check this French XPCTHLST.TXT

Sous réserve d'erreurs typographiques

For people (like me) who don't need the last version (DirectX8.1 is fine for DVD player and RealAlternative install), the link is below :

@GreenMachine

I'm currently tring TEST version of XPCREATE 30 MAY 2004.

My source Cd is 2KP = Windows 2000 Professional MUI

SP4 is in %PREPDIR%\SPACKS\W2KSP4_EN.EXE

1/ When i launch XPCREATE, XPCTHLST.TXT is downloaded from http://msfn.wiretapped.us/XPFILES/2KP/ENU/XPCTHLST.TXT <OK>

2/ the script start downloading w2ksp4_en.exe from M$ although the file already in the SPACKS folder. <not what expected>

3/ after editing XPCREATE.CMD for debugging purpose, i've noticed that the script initialize a variable called CURSPNAME get from downloaded XPCTHLST.TXT

(

add pause in XPCREATE

OUF ! (French onomatopoeia). not easy to explain in english.

@Virindi

Fail on my first attempt to download dotnetfx.exe from M$.

Will try a second attempt later... (for debugging purpose !). But the link is good. Checked with NetTransport download manager freeware

Later...

snif bouh (French onomatopoeia), script hangs up when Merging Service Pack

"Cannot find the file 'TEMP\SPACKS\UPDATE\UPDATE.EXE' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all required librairies are available."

@GreenMachine

The MKDIR TEMP\SPACKS command don't create the folder on my box ?
