Ghost_Shield Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 Hi Everyone.Im fairly new to this program and basically what i am trying to do is make a cd with an autorun of the WPI interface. When WPI executes a program it is looking in the wrong drive for the exe. The WPI.cmd is correctly detecting the right CD-ROM but when it comes to executing the programs from WPI.hta it always selects the drive one letter before the correct one. ie. My CD-ROM is F: and WPI.cmd detects it as such. When i installs Winamp, for example, the message "Windows cannot find 'E:\install\winamp\winamp.exe' Make sure ... " occurs.Below is a copy of the code from config.js...prog[pn]=['WinAmp']uid[pn]=['WINAMP']picw[pn]=['128']pich[pn]=['128']desc[pn]=['WinAmp 5.21']textl[pn]=['Bottom']texti[pn]=['1']ordr[pn]=[12]cmd1[pn]=['%CDROM%install\\winamp\\winamp.exe /S']gcond[pn]=['FileExists(\'%programfiles%\\\')']cat[pn]=['Applications']pn++...Any ideas on how i can fix this would be greatly appriciated.Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mritter Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 At first glance, you need \\ after the %CDROM%%CDROM%\\install\\winamp\winamp.exe /S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Shield Posted May 16, 2006 Author Share Posted May 16, 2006 Hi,Thanks for the reply. I thought so too but when i put that switch in all i get is"Windows cannot find 'E:\\install\winamp\winamp.exe' Make sure ... "Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g3o Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 I to am having this problem, WPI.cmd selects the correct cd drive (virtual drive G:) but always looks in D: when installing programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost_Shield Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hi all,I've been stuffing around with the generate.js file trying to fix this problem. I think what is the problem is the following if statement from FindCDRom() doesnt work.if (LaunchFromCD=="no") FindFile="WIN51";else FindFile="WPI.ICO";I believe this because when i change the "no" to a "yes" all my problems are solved.Could someone double check this for me so if it is a problem it can be fixed in the next version?ThanksGhost Shield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mritter Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 This option is removed from v5.0. Things are finally getting wrapped up for a release. Look for some screen shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
