%Reboot% issue 1: error: Line 457, char 2, Error: Object expected, Code: 0, URL: file://E:\WPI\Common\Installer.hta

This is when running E:\WPI\WPI.hta from a Memory Stick on driveletter E:

REBOOT is the only entry being installed.

After the reboot and logon, WPI kicks in again, sets a green check for the "REBOOT", and pops up this window "Internet Explorer Script Error" with "error: Line 457, char 2, Error: Object expected, Code: 0, URL: file://E:\WPI\Common\Installer.hta"

I have to end the "mshta.exe" process in Taskmanager.

(in Installer.hta there are only 297 lines, so why it is indicating line 457?)

REBOOT is the only entry being installed.

That is most liekly the problem WPI expects to be able to install things and make commands after a reboot. Not just to end.

%Reboot% issue 2: When installing 2 applications, with a %reboot% during the install of the first application

This too is when running E:\WPI\WPI.hta from a Memory Stick on driveletter E:

I only installing PDFCreator and JAlbum

I put a %reboot% into PDFCreator's installation cmd2

So PDFCreator cmd1 installs..., then the reboot occurs, then the login, the remaining commands 3 and 6 of PDFCreator get executed, but when WPI begins installing JAlbum an error occurs: E:\WPI\WPIScripts\ExtractToPath.vbs, Line 20, Char 12, error: The system cannot find the file specified. Code 80070002: Source: (null)

Thereafter the same error as in "%Reboot% issue1" in Installer.hta.

(The extraction created C:\Program Files\JAlbum as a file instead of a folder; if you delete it and run WPI again, JAlbum installs fine)

%Reboot% issue 3: when WPI is ran from a network share on another PC

"REBOOT" is the only WPI-entry being installed.

After the reboot a window pops up "Z:\Common\Installer.hta" which you have to close manually before logon continues, and when you start WPI, the message "WPI has detected a previous installation that has not completed..." appears, and you have to click "Cancel"

prog[pn]=['REBOOT'];
ordr[pn]=[999];
desc[pn]=['<BR><B><u>REBOOT</u></B><P>REBOOTS the computer after 20 seconds, typically after all installations are done.</P><UL><LI>	<B>STATUS</B> 2007-01-25:	<B><FONT color=blue>TEST</FONT></B><LI>	<FONT color=red>TODO: some issues!</FONT></UL>'];
uid[pn]=['REBOOT'];
cat[pn]=['Other'];
configs[pn]=['TEST,MSI'];
cmd6[pn]=['%reboot% 20 -c "END of UnAttended XP installation. Don`t panic. The system will reboot in 20 seconds."'];
pn++;

This is the wrapper I use to start WPI on the network share:

@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS

::::: parameters used during unattended installations
set CONFIGWPI=%1
set TIMEOUT=%2

:LOOKUPWPI
set SOURCE=
FOR %%d IN ( \\PC171  \\PC230 ) DO IF EXIST %%d\WPI$	SET SOURCE=%%d\WPI&& GOTO SOURCE_OK

:NOK!
echo No WPI found !
IF NOT "%1"=="" GOTO END_WPI_CMD
echo Press ENTER to EXIT ...
pause
EXIT

:SOURCE_OK
PUSHD %SOURCE%
WPI.hta options=useroptions_unattended.js check=%CONFIGWPI% timer=%TIMEOUT%
POPD

::::: Sort Start Menu and Favorites in Alphabetical Order
@reg DELETE HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder /f

:END_WPI_CMD

"Execute Before" option: how to enter a relative path?

Using WPI from an USB stick, i want wpi.hta to execute a batch file before. As you can't be sure of the driveletter the stick will get, a relative path is needed, e.g. .\Tools\wpi_Execute_Before.cmd.

In that commandfile, I would like to use the variable %WPIpath% to solve the driveletter issue.

Can this be done, or am I missing something obvious?

-----------------------------------

---- Sorry, works OK !!

I store the commands in the Tools subdirectory, and reference them as " .\Tools\wpi_Execute_Before.cmd" and ".\Tools\wpi_Execute_Before.cmd" in the useroptions

WPI\Tools\wpi_Execute_Before.cmd :

@echo off

::::: make copy of the last WPI logfile before it is overwritten
IF NOT EXIST C:\WPI.Log GOTO END_LOGBOOK_WPI
copy C:\WPI.Log C:\temp.log
echo ================================================>>C:\temp.log
type C:\wpi_all.log >>C:\temp.log
MOVE /Y C:\temp.log C:\wpi_all.log

:END_LOGBOOK_WPI

IF NOT EXIST %Windir%\system32\TASKKILL.exe COPY /Y .\Install\MicroSFT\$OEM$\$$\system32\taskkill.exe %Windir%\system32\
IF NOT EXIST %Windir%\system32\robocopy.exe COPY /Y .\Install\MicroSFT\$OEM$\$$\system32\robocopy.exe %Windir%\system32\

WPI\Tools\wpi_Execute_After.cmd :

@echo off
::::: Sort Start Menu and Favorites in Alphabetical Order
@reg DELETE HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder /f

Install order does not seem to work. My apps are installed in alphabetical order. What can I do?

**Wesmosis** · April 6, 2007

hey what's up?

I got this error message on the start of WPI v5.6

**Kelsenellenelvian** · April 6, 2007

Let me pull out my crystal ball so I can figure out which OS you are using and which method you are using to run WPI.

Try shortening the path...

**Wesmosis** · April 6, 2007

Sorry! Crystal Ball! that's was funny ;D

I'm using XP SP2 + Ryan 2.1.7

Sun Java 1.5.10

WPI 5.6 via cmdlines.txt

[COMMANDS]
"useraccounts.cmd"
Royale.exe
RunWPI.cmd

fully the default methods, I don't play around much

the weird thing, that when I use this erreneous WPI on VERY ORDINARY UN-TOUCHED XPSP2, there was no error message!

EDIT:

WPI v5.0 working 100% normal

WPI v5.4 , WPI v5.5 , WPI v5.6 showing the same error message

something is wrong in Line 101, Char 2

seems to crash in vista
ms html app host crashes

=============

I just changed the xp things into vista things in core.js , that was all........
LOL even the makers from wpi never respond to this....they had to know after i posted the error, but they didnt.
Glad i found this myself
Problem solved WPI runs in vista now.
And where do you see Pliek?
Hi sp00f,
Could you please upload the correct file so I can add the correct ones. Thank you (or mail np at all)
Many thnx
Nickx
Just edit the core.js
In that file you look for this :
if (FileExists(li[i]+'\\WPI.HTA') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\WIN51') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\I386\\DRIVER.CAB'))
Change "WIN51" and "I386\\DRIVER.CAB" into things that are on your vista DVD.
I use this ( these things are in MY Vista DVD ) :
(FileExists(li[i]+'\\WPI.HTA') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\AppsRoot.txt') || FileExists(li[i]+'\\sources\\install_Windows Vista (vLite) ULTIMATE.clg'))
And to start WPI i used firegeier's guide :
http://firegeier.unattended-sponsor.de/en/applications.html
But instead of installing aps from there i only use this for WPI
%AppsRoot%Install\WPI\WPI.hta

full storry
