Hi folks,

I cant get pkgmgr working

my log file:

2007-05-27 15:19:34, Info CBS Pkgmgr: called with: "pkgmgr /o:"C:\wim_mount\;C:\wim_mount\Windows" /n:"C:\answer.xml" /l:c:\log.txt"

2007-05-27 15:19:34, Info CSI 00000001@2007/5/27:13:19:34.224 WcpInitialize (wcp.dll version 0.0.0.5) called (stack @0x6c11f745 @0xda2dbf @0xd9d892 @0xd9e27e @0x76573833 @0x77bda9bd)

2007-05-27 15:19:34, Info CBS Pkgmgr: return code: 0x80004001

%errorlevel% reports 9009 or sometimes a negative digit

Any ideas?

thanks in advance

HJW

EDIT1: it seems that the switch /wait causes trouble the switch /w returns 0 so succesful operation

I run "start /w pkgmgr <options>" right now

EDIT2: How possibly can there be a difference between:

C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\x86\Servicing\pkgmgr.exe

and

C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\PETools\pkgmgr.exe

running commandline to integrate updates from 2nd location fails with error 2 and running exactly same commandline from 1st dir is succesful.

From PETools\.. it says in the logfile an error with WCP.DLL

Not being on my home system with WAIK installed, I am not positive, but I think, without the \x86\ switch in the command line, either PETools dosen't know which version (IE: x86 or x64) to run. OR, The the tool your attempting to run isnt located in "C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\PETools" But actually located in "C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\x86\Servicing". You can browse to the actual folders and see which folder contains the version of "pkgmgr.exe" that you actually wish to use, and use that path in your command line.
