I suppose it should be noted that MSXML 4.0 SP2 is still needed for SP2 systems, as it's not included in the package.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en

If you guys are interested, I (once again) created a custom install for this which is WAY smaller than the 5MB Microsoft download and includes the KB832414 hotfix files.

http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/msxml4sp2.exe (805KB)

Like my other installers, it uses the /qb switch on the MSI file. If you want one that uses /qn, send me an instant message.

Could you explain what and how you did it?

I want to create my own for the german MSXML 4.0 Service Pack 2.

And keep up the good work!

EDIT:

How can I find out if it installed correctly?

[RyanVM]

There's a German MSXML 4 installer?

If you've got msxml4.dll and msxml4r.dll in your system32 directory, it's installed properly.

EDIT: MBSA doesn't say if it's installed or not. Nevermind. To those who know MBSA well, is there a way to see what files are scanned in the final report?

[bucketbuster]

Yes there is:

Well I'll be darned

Are you familiar with WinINSTALL LE or Orca at all?

EDIT: Is there a German version of the KB832414 hotfix as well?

[bucketbuster]

I used wininstall le in the past.

I don't know ORCA.

I don't know for sure, but do I need MSXML 4.0 SP2 actually in a normal XP system?

[RyanVM]

It's used for some web applications. Also, some of the tools written by members of this forum are XML-based, aren't they?

[bucketbuster]

So beside this file: http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/msxml4sp2.exe

do I need anything else or is this the "full" version?

[RyanVM]

It installs MSXML 4.0 SP2, so I guess I don't understand the question.

hi!

do i put the Windows Script 5.6.8825 in svcpack.inf?

i extracted the original svcpack.in_ from XP SP2's i386 folder and this is what i got:

[Version]
Signature="$Windows NT$"

[SetupData]
CatalogSubDir="i386\hotfixes"

[ProductCatalogsToInstall]

[SetupHotfixesToRun]

compared to the svcpack.inf of SP1:

[Version] 
Signature="$Windows NT$"
MajorVersion=5
MinorVersion=1
BuildNumber=2600

[SetupData]
CatalogSubDir="\i386\Update"

[ProductCatalogsToInstall]
KB826939.cat

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
update.exe -q -n
js56nen.exe /Q:A /R:N
Q330994.exe /Q:A /R:N
Q816093.exe /Q:A /R:N
Q823182.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q823353.exe /Q:A /R:N
Q824105.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q824141.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q825119.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q828035.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q828028.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q828741.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q832353.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q831167.exe /Q:A /R:N
Q835732.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q837001.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q837251.exe /Q:A /R:N
Q839645.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q840315.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q840374.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q841873.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q842773.exe /Q /O /N /Z
Q867801.exe /Q:A /R:N
WMP9MM2.exe
Q828026.exe /Q /O /N /Z
DX9NTopk.exe
qchain.exe

if i make changes to the svcpack.inf to include Script 5.6, then it should be this:

[Version]
Signature="$Windows NT$"

[SetupData]
CatalogSubDir="i386\Update"

[ProductCatalogsToInstall]

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
script8825.exe /Q:A /R:N
qchain.exe

correct me if i'm wrong?

[RyanVM]

Yeah, that should be correct.
