Can anybody help me with this?

- I run WPI from %cdrom%\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI\

- Programspath = %cdrom%\INSTALL\

- WIN51 file in the root of the CD.

Whenever I try to install a program, it looks for the files in %cdrom%\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI\INSTALL\ and not in %cdrom%\INSTALL\.

my WPI.CMD:

@ECHO OFF

REM Example, how to look for CDROM-drive. Must have WPI.ico at the root of the CD.
for %%i in (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) do if exist %%i:\WIN51 set CDROM=%%i:
echo Found CD-Rom as drive %CDROM%

REM Determine the WPI startup path. 
REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%.
set wpipath=%cdrom%\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI

REM Hide this command window.
%wpipath%\Tools\cmdow.exe @ /hid

REM Force resolution to needed size for wpi interface.
--start %wpipath%\Tools\VideoChanger.exe 1280x1024x32@85 -q

REM Font installation - the smooth and customizable way.
--start /wait %wpipath%\Tools\fonts\fontinstaller.exe

REM Special registry tweak needed.
regedit /s "%wpipath%\common\wpi.reg

REM Make WPI directory the current directory.
for /f "delims=: tokens=1" %%i in ("%wpipath%") do %%i:
cd "%wpipath%"

REM Start WPI and wait for its end
start /wait %windir%\system32\mshta.exe "%cdrom%\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI\wpi.hta"

REM Cleaning up the desktop.
REM del /s/q "%userprofile%\desktop\*.lnk"

REM Rebooting the sytem to finalize the installation process.
--shutdown.exe -r -f -t 30 -c "To finish installations WPI will now reboot in 30 sec..."

exit

How can I solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

When you include files in folder $OEM$\$1 means that the files will copied to the systemdrive during the installation of windows.

So in the case you have the folder $OEM$\$1\install\WPI\... in your unattended disc the folder install (incl. subdirs) will be copied to the systemdrive so the correct path for the applications is %systemdrive%\install....

-or-

if you dont want the files to be copied in the systemdrive you can have the install folder in the root dir of the disc so the correct path is %cdrom%\install\...

No, I don't have the folder with software in the $1... folder. It's on the CD in a folder called INSTALL, so in my case: V:\INSTALL\. These are not copied to the systemdrive, because they are not in a special folder. In my Configuration the programs are linked to: %CDROM%\INSTALL\, but it seems to use the %CDROM% not as V:\, but as V:\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI\, therefor it can't find the programs.

It's rather difficult to explain, but I hope this is clear now.

Arjan

You have:

REM Determine the WPI startup path.

REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%.

set wpipath=%cdrom%\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI

That is why it is looking at %cdrom%\$OEM$\$1\install\WPI

You need:

REM Determine the WPI startup path.

REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%.

set wpipath=%cdrom%\INSTALL

That doesn't seem to work. Now I get the error:

Windows cannot find the file E:\\INSTALL\Backup\Syncback_Setup.exe

Strange, because my CDROM driveletter is correctly found and displayed in the DOS-window as K:.

The location of the file is:

K:\INSTALL\Backup\Syncback_Setup.exe

In WPI, I filled this after Command 1:

%cdrom%\INSTALL\backup\SyncBack_Setup\SyncBack_Setup.exe /VERYSILENT

The commandline from the CONFIG.JS is:

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\INSTALL\\backup\\SyncBack_Setup\\SyncBack_Setup.exe /VERYSILENT']

What is going wrong here...?

If the error message says exactly

Windows cannot find the file E:\\INSTALL\Backup\Syncback_Setup.exe

propably the correct path is

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\INSTALL\\backup\\SyncBack_Setup\\SyncBack_Setup.exe /VERYSILENT']

because maybe %cdrom% returns E:\ and not E:
