Nazgul Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 I got the same error as MCT at startup.I fixed it by adding the bold line to wait.cfgName=Photo Story 3UID=PHOTOSTORYCMD=%cdrom%\\Apps\\InstallScripts\\PhotoStory3.au3.exeDEPS=WINDOWSMEDIAPLAYERV10ORDER=485CAT=Tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCT Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 thanks nazqul, it didnt even occur to me to check that entry im guessing its cause it was like 5am when i posted ive got a suggestion too what about an option like "Space required"where u could add an entry like REQHDD=value example:REQHDD=244KBREQHDD=10MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanh Posted February 24, 2005 Author Share Posted February 24, 2005 Not yet, I am still waiting for network compatible version <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Please explain why this is not a "network version"Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see, wait now fully validates the cfg file to make sure that everything that is needed is in the file. So in this case Photo Story 3 has a "DEPS" line. Therefore it is required to have a "UID" line as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Zugec Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Well, U cant call installations from network, e.g. \\server\share\apps\app\setup.bat... every \ is translated to one, e.g. \\\\\\\ looks like \ BTW why there is need to use double \?

bryanh Posted February 24, 2005 Author Share Posted February 24, 2005 what about an option like "Space required"where u could add an entry like REQHDD=value example:REQHDD=244KBREQHDD=10MB<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The problem I can see with this is that WAIT does not know where the program will install (it only knows what to run). Therefore unless you want it in the POPUP text for informational purposes only, I don't see the value.Make sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-I- Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 heej realy CEWL APP WAY Beter than WPI (not that i hated that one, for its bad coding or anything, Just that is was relying on Jscript...... id like to ask some stuf about this app though, wich helps to know how to handle this fine peace of programming ... 1> what are its depencies, (will it nead any files, like MS. NET framework, or IEexplorer core files or anything at all??? 2> how where when does it do its job (starting the aplications).. like will it be able to do as a batch file does, (running a start /wait command).... or does it do that by default, and make the 'start /wait' command unneaded----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Why do i want to know this... well here is why... http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...56entry278556in short i wrote: where do you config your "apps to install" and said that idd prefere unattended.txt (UA) over [guirunonce] Because at the state of UA you can still easely do more "hardecore" tweaks so a user could still deside whether they want these tweaks or not... But to be able to do this, we nead also be able to write a batch file to be run at runonce ... (when the big aps like your office suite ore antivirus app get installed).. and none of us. would probably like to use 2 wizzards in 1 install... _______________________________________________________So my 3th and final question: (or perhaps feature request), is...3> Can this aplication be made to write lines to a install.bat file or is there any other way to get this done????

Lost Soul Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 this program is definatly turning out better and better ,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a06lp Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 wowwith the new features in v05 this program got much better. i am going to have to fiddle around with it some more, but it seems like the only thing wpi has that this program doesnt have is my custom theme....although im not sure that's possible to include.how about -I-'s q's? Does this program require anything to be installed (like .net or whatever else may be needed?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanh Posted February 25, 2005 Author Share Posted February 25, 2005 1> what are its depencies,totally self contained2> how where when does it do its job (starting the aplications).. like will it be able to do as a batch file does, (running a start /wait command).... or does it do that by default, and make the 'start /wait' command unneadedIt will kick off the application and wait for it to complete (just like start /wait)3> Can this aplication be made to write lines to a install.bat file or is there any other way to get this done???? <{POST_SNAPBACK}>It could, but this is not something I planned. I currently run with with [guirunonce]. Why don't you like the "guirunone" option.Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonedaddy Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Just a couple of questions, will or are we able to run multi cmd'slike; cmd1 then cmd2? So we can run a reg. tweak with the program...The new button addon is great but after 5 programs it starts a new cat with the same name.......... and could you change button 1 and 3 around?If I'm going to use one button should be near the rest, I don't know, looksbetter.......thanks for great program, will we ever be able to add a jpg or bmpback round?BD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeTT! Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Thx again bryanh for great soft and your patience! I always got this when W.A.I.T try to close (i think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a06lp Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 i agree with bonedaddymaybe make some kind of statement that we can add as many cmd's as we want per entry, so we can run our various regtweaks, cleanups, customizations, etc as part of the file.

So we can run a reg. tweak with the program...Already fully supported. Just add more CMD= lines. They are run in the order that they are in the file.The new button addon is great but after 5 programs it starts a new cat with the same nameNot sure what you mean about this one. The cat's are determined by the cat's for each program. Can you explain more?.......... and could you change button 1 and 3 around?If I'm going to use one button should be near the rest, I don't know, looksbetter.......No problem - next versionthanks for great programYou're quite welcomewill we ever be able to add a jpg or bmp back round?Personally I have no need for a background, but if there is enough interest I will look into it.
