Error Log

[chon_]

I run 4 CMD scripts in my unattended CD and I want to make a log file for them because I need to know what's going on every stage of the setup process.

1. How can I do it?

2. Can I use only one file for the four scripts m(ie append the info to only one file)?

3. If so, how to do it?

3. where should I create it?

4. is it possible to log svcpack.inf activities? how?

TIA

If 4 of those batch files are being executed as each line under [GuiRunOnce] then create another batch file to execute your four batch files.

Like this:

start /wait $systemdrive$\install\batch1.cmd >>C:\batch1.log

start /wait $systemdrive$\install\batch2.cmd >>C:\batch2.log

start /wait $systemdrive$\install\batch3.cmd >>C:\batch3.log

start /wait $systemdrive$\install\batch4.cmd >>C:\batch4.log

EXIT

Call this startbatch.cmd and use this in [GuiRunOnce] instead. Its done this way because [GuiRunOnce] doesn't like the >> command.

Not sure on how to log svcpack.inf activities though

Hotfixes has uninstall support.They are storing uninstall information under tyhe windows dir.Every fix creating own uniqe uninstall dir.Like this C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB282010$\ They are listing changed files to C:\WINDOWS\$NtUninstallKB282010$\spuninst\spuninst.inf file.You can trace them

If you are using servcie pack with uninstall support or unattend setup.You can use same way
