sdube Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 Hi,I've used your pack RyanVM but now I am getting the following error upon running the installation:The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed.This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows installer is not correctly installed.I am running the installer from the GuiRunOnceEx as I always did.Does someone have experienced something similar upon applying RyanVM's pack?Thanks.
creopard Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 did you do the things as described under "Manual installation for both the Lite and Full packs" on Ryan's site?I think this pack is not meant to run with GuiRunOnceEx...
RyanVM Posted October 11, 2004 Author Posted October 11, 2004 What are you trying to install? I install quite a few apps from GuiRunOnce that use the Windows Installer service and they all work fine.And now that we have confirmation on the date thing, it'll be in the next release.And on the download front - HOLY HELL. I've used 5GB of bandwidth in three days and there's been a total of nearly 700 downloads between 1.0.0 and 1.0.1!!! Glad to see you guys like it
RyanVM Posted October 11, 2004 Author Posted October 11, 2004 echo %DATE:~-10% Returns 11/10/2004Im, using a Corp-English installationecho %date% returns 11/10/2004 but seeing not everyones is the same, so the universal version is just great well done swgreed I think erm, I posted that idea.Ah well, glad to see we found something that works for everyone. Stupid discrepancies between versions
sdube Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 @RyanVM:I am trying to install MSN Messenger 6.1.0202. The odd thing is I can install it after all the installation process is done and I am logged in.Here is the relevent commands in my RunOnceCmdEx file:REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "MSN Messenger 6.1.0202" /fREG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\MSN\MsnMsgs.msi /QB" /fAnyhow, I'll start a new thread on this issue since it does not seem to be related to your pack. Maybe it is SP2 related.

RyanVM Posted October 11, 2004 Author Posted October 11, 2004 Version 1.0.1a is now out. Fixes in it are a correction on the date issue and CMDOW was added to the Lite pack (I kind of forgot that both packs rely on it ).1.0.1-->1.0.1a upgrade packs can be downloaded from the changelog page. They are much smaller and easier on my bandwidth. Please download them if you're already using 1.0.1. They can be extracted straight into i386 with no other modifications required.
Famer Posted October 11, 2004 Posted October 11, 2004 RyanVM the pack that you put out 1.0.1 can it be used as is with newist version of Nliteedit nevermind i se it can be done

They can be extracted straight into i386 with no other modifications required.i'm afraid i need some more detailed instructions on how to MANUALY update from 1.01 to 1.01aI downloaded the file from your page "RVMUpdatePack1.01aFull.cab", and when i extract it, there seem to be a LOT of files...is this the update or the full version? I also see another cab inside called "RVMUpPck.cab"....what do i do?

Maybe you should try READING the page.Please for the sake of my (limited) bandwidth, download upgrade packs when available.And if you managed to CLICK that link, you'd have seen:# 1.0.1 to 1.0.1a Upgrade Pack - Lite Version (860KB). Download and extract to i386 directory.# 1.0.1 to 1.0.1a Upgrade Pack - Full Version (1.57MB). Download and extract to i386 directory.
bucketbuster Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 Can this pack be used in combination with Gosh's Secret Of Reducing Size Of Source?I don't see why not. Hell, it could be used with a standard non-unattended install CD the way it's set up to run Just tested this method in combination with Gosh's method and it worked.Well, I had to copy the svcpack-folder back to i386 afterwards.Because it was removed during Gosh's method.
Ghostrider Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 I have a little problem.... i tried using the pack in conjunction with nuhis tools then i used Brian Berns tool (http://berns.cae.wisc.edu/pages/wincd.asp) for creating a multiboot XP install as i create XP Corp, OEM and retail CD's with OEM installs (2 os's on each cd) also using XPinstall from Wraith. All seemed to go well but i get a framedyn.dll error on startup of the OS for the 1st time and non of the hotfixes are updated, i have to download them again, is there a way i can make Ryans pack work with the other method of creating a CD??? BTW, i use the CMD version 104 not the windows version 2 of Brian Berns tool

Alpheratz13 Posted October 12, 2004 Posted October 12, 2004 @RyanVMHere i am back for to saying, that your pack is great and it's works fine with Messenger 6.2.That's all Irving
