maxrpg Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Hi everybody I just got WPI which is what I needed but i'm wanting to use it on it's own, without having a windows install on the cd. Ive burned it to cdrom just on its own and it loads up perfecty ok but none of my programs will install because it keeps looking for them on my C:\ instead of the cdrom.Ive done this in the WPI.cmd file: REM Determine the WPI startup path. REM if wpi should run off the cd the replace %~dp0 with %cdrom%.set wpipath=%cdrom%and the program paths are:cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Install\\Winrar.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-']I'm pretty sure thats correct??. Why does it look for them on my Main harddrive and not on the cdrom??Weird, bizarre, puzzled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faaip565 Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Hey I am running WPI stand alone but mine is running from a hard drive instead I am not an expert on this prog at all in fact im a noob of the highest order but this is how i got it to work on my hard drive and i dont see why it would not work for you this is based off a recommendation another user gave me in a previous post.Instead of just pointing straight to the exe create a batch file.in the batch file include the following:cd /d %cdrom%cd install\winrar (or whatever the directory structure is to point to the folder your exe is in)winrar.exethen in the config.js file point to the batch file instead.This seemed to work for me give it a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Soul Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\Install\\Winrar.exe TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST /qb-']the %cdrom% variable is correct to run the app from cd Edited February 2, 2006 by Lost Soul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
