log file problem & plugins fail to load

**Rico.JohnnY** · August 20, 2004

i downloaded the xplode 1.1.2 and extracted it.....then ran the "run_with_logging.bat" without modifying any file...then i got a log file,but unlike others' posted on forum ,the format looked so disordered and some plugins did not seem to load sucessfully.... No wonder i failed to write data into registry using the <registry> tag.i just want to know why,is that a bug? and how about yours?

****...i forgot the code..here's it

hi,

please try to move xplode in:

H:\Technique\XPlode\

instead of:

H:\Technique\XPlode\XPlode-1.1.2\

and try again. maybe it doesn't like the '.' in the path.

hope this helps a bit

**Rico.JohnnY** · August 25, 2004

it still remains the same

**feufy** · August 25, 2004

Hi, I Have EXACTLY the same problems with the same plugins....

Everything was working fine with wmware but after burning and running it for real I have the same problem...

Don't understand..

Thanks in Advance for your help

PS: I'm Using XP Pro SP2 & XPlode 1.1.2

**killerbee** · August 26, 2004

hi,

hmmm, i haven't tested it on my real pc. maybe i should do it in the near future.

I'll report back when i had the time.

hi,

just tested it on my real PC and it worked without any problem, so it must be sth. else.

hi,

where do you call your XPlode?

Is this a fresh installation of XP?

cya

Killer Bee

**Rico.JohnnY** · September 2, 2004

NO..i just tested it on a installed XP pro with sp2 OS..Does it matter?

**killerbee** · September 3, 2004

hi,

i've tested it on my installed XPSP1 and a fresh installation of XPSP2 and it worked without problems, maybe your virus-scanner or another app causes this problem.

I would suggest you test it on a fresh installation (inside a VM would be best for testing-purposes). This would help to look if there's a problem with one of your apps.

hope this helps a bit

Wow, I am having this problem now too. The same plugins (execute & shortcut) load for me and the other 3 (adduser, filesystem and registry) don't. I have tried redownloading, and even using xplode off of a previous know working XPSP1 CD but it simply won't load those plugins. I have also tried switching to different xmls or using no xml at all (the log file still says if the plugins load or not).

I am running a fresh install of XP with SP2 and slipstreamed journal viewer, .net 1.1sp1, highmat CD, Windows Script 5.6 update, and WMP10. No virus scanner or adware removal tools etc. are installed. I registry disable a few services but I did with SP1 as well. I've included this information so that people having this problem may find a consistent theme that differs from those people who don't have this problem. Or hopefully if someone has solved this, they can let me and others know what to do. Wraith I know you are hard at work with xplode2 but any thoughts on this, and/or will xplode2 solve this? At this point I don't think its an imagined problem.

UPDATE: I have put xplode on a CD with a test xml. I have run it on another computer with SP2 and it loads all of the plugins perfectly...but when I run it on mine it doesnt. The other machine doesnt have the SP2 updates. I will try to discover if it one of the updates and post back here.

UPDATE2: Its not the friggin updates...looking at the registry tweaks.

UPDATE3: I'm stupid. No I still have the problem, but I remembered that I use XPLODE twice, first at T-13 and then at Runonce. Both logs show non-loading plugins, and since the registry tweaks happen during the T-13 run, it can't be anything in there. The only differences now are in winnt.sif, drivers (ATI), and massstorage controller. hmmmmmmmmmm.

**Wraith** · September 18, 2004

I can't provide support for XPlode 1.1.2, but can I get you to please test the XPlode2 executables I've posted in the other topic? I'd like to narrow down why plugins aren't loading, and hopefully eliminate it in XPlode2.
