i Download 2.9.7a and move my progs from your old version but when i try to install it closed and nothing happen

yup, same prob here - i have to log off and log back on to install progs...

this was a problem in an old version, whys it back??

-----------------------

As far as the winamp problem - you're solution worked, but my idiocy got in the way. I forgot to change your default "setup.ini" to my "winamp505.ini" for the installer. :blushing:

Here's my working code, for anyone who needs it:

(winamp505.ini = installation settings; winamp.ini = post-install custom user settings)

prog[pn]=['Winamp 5.05']
desc[pn]=['Winamp is a very popular media player used to play MP3 files.']
cmd1[pn]=['msiexec.exe /qb /i %cdrom%\\Applications\\Winamp\\Winamp505.msi INI="%cdrom%\\Applications\\Winamp\\winamp505.ini"']
cmd2[pn]=['XCOPY "%cdrom%\\Applications\\winamp\\Winamp.ini" "%systemdrive%\\Program Files\\Winamp\" /E /Y']
dflt[pn]=['no']
forc[pn]=['false']
cat[pn]=['<font color="FF9900">Audio</font>']
pn++

I have a request for you my man... And PLEASE fill this request...

Can you make all alerts and text's in an external ("language") file?

I myself would like to translate your WPI to Norwegian, but when there are updates its an hassle updating all files to get the alerts and text's right...

This would ease updating when there are new versions alot!

Thanks man... keep it up! :thumbup

When I use %cdrom% for installing my apps and drivers from CD WPI always wants to have disk in drive H: But my WinXP Cd is in Drive J:

It works if I change the drive letter in the registry like you eplained on the WPI HP.

But how can I have the right CDROM letter when Installing Win XP.

Does the engine of WPI search for the WIN51 file in all drives???

Then it should run or not?

I've got a single-cdrom system. You seem to have 3 of then (H,I,J). Never tested that. Could you give me a detaileed system-layout (Floppy,hdd,cdroms and their drive letters) for your system (at the time the failure happens)?

How do you know it wants drive H: ? Error message or registry lookup ?

It works if I change the drive letter in the registry like you eplained on the WPI HP.

Where did I write that ? Changing drive letters in registry ?

Does the engine of WPI search for the WIN51 file in all drives???

Findig the CDROM algorithm is explained on the HP - Help. Did you mean that with changing drive letters in registry ?

@BoardBabe

If the Appswitch itself needs a " you've got to write \". You're right with that.

@bmn

ApplicationSwitches and questions are in the Application Switches forum.

In the help you say that the drive letter which WPI checks is given in the Registry.

My system:

A: Floppy

C: Partition 1

D: Partition 2

E: Partition 3

F: Partition 4

G: Partition 5

H: and that is interesting doesn't exist!!!!

I: DVD-Writer

J: DVD-ROM

are you sure about that?

I just tested my Diskeeper with the following code:

prog[pn]=['Diskeeper 8.0.478.0']

desc[pn]=['A great defragmentation program.']

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Applications\\diskeeper\\diskeeper804780.exe /s /a /s /v"/qb"']

dflt[pn]=['no']

forc[pn]=['false']

cat[pn]=['<font color=FF9900">Utilities</font&gt]

pn++

and it worked just fine, without any backslashes....

Yes, but that's the least option.

Please do the following:

Edit config.js and enable debug-outputs

var debugOn = 1;         // (0/1) for testing purposes only.

Start WPI. There are now many outputs in the upper part of the screen. Select, copy and send these outputs to me via PM. Perhaps I can find the prob.
