re: kb885835 & kb885250

Hi,working solution for integrate this Kb:

First,move your svcpack folder into another location;

Integrate the hotfix (Without errors,this time);

open the HFINT.dat in the new svcpack folder genareted by installation of this kb with notpad and copy the lines and past inside the other HFINT.dat (Look at the sections inside this one);copy the files generated inside the other svcpack folder..Now you have

svcpack folder with all hotfix integrated,just move this one inside I386.

Tested,work fine.

Hope your understand,xcuss for my bad English.

KB885835 is not needed anymore. test it with a clean install of xpsp2 without hotfixes.

Sorry but this is the list I get from Windows Update this morning:

[Astalavista]

i dont understand what he said.

Astalavista -

Integrate only kb885835 or kb885250 then look in i386\svcpacks

move the files to another location.

integrate all of your other hotfixes.

copy contents of HFINT.dat which we copied out earlier into the newly created HFINT.dat now in the i386\svcpacks folder.

you can see windows update and hfnetchk.exe with no needed updates and you can see the the add/remove software dialogue displaying the updates installed.

and these are the entries in my svcpack.inf:

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
dotnet11.exe
KB867282.exe /q /n /z
KB873333.exe /q /n /z
KB873339.exe /q /n /z
KB885250.exe /q /n /z
KB885836.exe /q /n /z

[Incroyable HULK]

Working Perfectly! Don't bother with all the method suggested, all you have to do is to throw KB885250 & KB867282 in your svcpack folder and then add the line to your svcpack.inf.

Here is my current svcpack.inf

[CatalogHeader]

Just finished testing the previously posted method: (works fine)

Integrate only kb885835 or kb885250 then look in i386\svcpacks

move the files to another location.

integrate all of your other hotfixes.

copy contents of HFINT.dat which we copied out earlier into the newly created HFINT.dat now in the i386\svcpacks folder.

Though it would be nice if M$ fixed the problem so this f***en around wasn't neccesary.

[Astalavista]

i confirm the method works

[eirogge]

this is what windowsupdates looks like:  kb885835 still neede.

(@eirogge - maybe its only still needed for the english version)

hm... interesting. the descrption of the hotfix doesnt sound if it is bound to a specific language.

can anyone with a german version make a clean install of xpsp2 without hotfixes and check this?

[BoardBabe]

Do we not need to edit HFINT.DAT? and add those 2 servicepacks

[IcemanND]

if you want to have it install the way it should install when you use the integrate switch then edit the hfint.dat file, copy the exe and cat file associated with whichever fix you did and away you go. Otherwise you can just do the update via svppack.inf as described elsewhere on the forum.

[BoardBabe]

So where do I get the .cat from?

[IcemanND]

if you follow the instructions from above when you integrate the single hotfix and then remove the svcpack folder the integration puts the exe and the cat in that folder with the dat file you need to get the info from.
