silverhawke Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 FOLDER STRUCTURED:\Distribution (shared on server as Distribution)D:\Distribution\workfolder (Distribution Share)Contains: $OEM$ Folders --> $1 --> office Out-of-Box Drivers PackagesD:\Distribution\source (Contents of Vista Business DVD)D:\Distribution\configsets (Configsets Folder – created by Create Configuration Set)Contains: $oem$ --> $OEM$ Folders --> $1 --> office AutoUnattend_Files AutoUnattend.xml PROCEDUREBoot target machine from a CD iso created by using the Oscdimg utility. At the command prompt, I map a drive to the Distribution folder on the server called WDS using the net use command. I then type in y:\source\setup.exe /unattend:y:\configsets\autounattend.xmlI always receive this error: Windows cannot access the installation sources. Verify that the installation sources are accessible, and restart the installation. If I take out the FirstLogonCommands section, it will go through fine and start the windows installation with no errors.I have tried:%configsetroot%\office\setup.exeC:\Install\office\setup.exeD:\Distribution\configsets\$oem$\$OEM$ Folders\$1\office\setup.exeI have tried to move the whole $oem$ folder under source\sources\ folder.Please help me figure out what the file path is for installing an application.CONTENTS OF AUTOUNATTEND.XML<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> - <unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">- <settings pass="windowsPE">- <component name="Microsoft-Windows-International-Core-WinPE" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">- <SetupUILanguage> <UILanguage>en-US</UILanguage> </SetupUILanguage> <InputLocale>en-US</InputLocale> <UILanguage>en-US</UILanguage> <UserLocale>en-US</UserLocale> <SystemLocale>en-US</SystemLocale> </component>- <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Setup" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">- <ImageInstall>- <OSImage>- <InstallTo> <DiskID>0</DiskID> <PartitionID>1</PartitionID> </InstallTo> </OSImage> </ImageInstall>- <UserData>- <ProductKey> <Key>ProductKey</Key> <WillShowUI>OnError</WillShowUI> </ProductKey> <AcceptEula>true</AcceptEula> <FullName>User</FullName> <Organization>Org</Organization> </UserData>- <DiskConfiguration>- <Disk wcm:action="add">- <CreatePartitions>- <CreatePartition wcm:action="add"> <Extend>true</Extend> <Order>1</Order> <Type>Primary</Type> </CreatePartition> </CreatePartitions>- <ModifyPartitions>- <ModifyPartition wcm:action="add"> <Active>true</Active> <Format>NTFS</Format> <Label>Local Disk</Label> <Letter>C</Letter> <Order>1</Order> <PartitionID>1</PartitionID> </ModifyPartition> </ModifyPartitions> <DiskID>0</DiskID> <WillWipeDisk>true</WillWipeDisk> </Disk> <WillShowUI>OnError</WillShowUI> </DiskConfiguration> <UseConfigurationSet>true</UseConfigurationSet> <EnableFirewall>false</EnableFirewall> <EnableNetwork>true</EnableNetwork> </component> </settings>- <settings pass="oobeSystem">- <component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="x86" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">- <AutoLogon>- <Password> <Value>password</Value> <PlainText>false</PlainText> </Password> <Enabled>true</Enabled> <LogonCount>5</LogonCount> <Username>Administrator</Username> </AutoLogon> <BluetoothTaskbarIconEnabled>false</BluetoothTaskbarIconEnabled> <DisableAutoDaylightTimeSet>false</DisableAutoDaylightTimeSet> <DoNotCleanTaskBar>true</DoNotCleanTaskBar> <RegisteredOrganization>Org</RegisteredOrganization> <RegisteredOwner>User</RegisteredOwner> <ShowWindowsLive>false</ShowWindowsLive> <StartPanelOff>false</StartPanelOff> <TimeZone>My Timezone</TimeZone> - <OOBE> <HideEULAPage>true</HideEULAPage> <NetworkLocation>Work</NetworkLocation> <ProtectYourPC>3</ProtectYourPC> <SkipMachineOOBE>true</SkipMachineOOBE> <SkipUserOOBE>true</SkipUserOOBE> </OOBE>- <FirstLogonCommands>- <SynchronousCommand wcm:action="add"> <Order>1</Order> [b]<CommandLine>%configsetroot%\office\setup.exe</CommandLine>[/b] <Description>Office 2007</Description> </SynchronousCommand> </FirstLogonCommands> </component> </settings> <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim://wds/distribution/source/sources/install.wim#Windows Vista BUSINESS" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" /> </unattend> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn1024 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Are you still trying to work this out? Let me know "where" you are in this process and I will do my best to steer you in the right direction. Based on what you posted above, I detect some confusion.Shawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwido Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I sense that some of the issue is to do with the long file path use and maybe needed to be encapsulated in "" to allow you access the "$oem$ folders" directory.I'd recommend you use a data image or install directly from the server from a .cmd file that is called from the XML file and has the mapped paths to a share where you want to deploy from.I see confuision in your post as well as you are using a d: path and you have a y: share and d: is being used as the main boot device / drive on the PC and hence as it goes through the install it loses the source location as you have hard coded it in your autounattend.xml file by what i can gather.I hope that makes sense.Gwido Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
