Really strange blink.gif , it's working here...look at line 118 regarding the RunOnce sequence.
I'm using commands other working scripts are using, simple @AutoItExe to specify where the script is located even if it's compiled or not.
Does this script work for anyone?
bober101
thing is im running the setup from my dvd drive..i guess thtas why.

I have the same problem I get the error and then restart then nothing comes up.

How do I disbable cleaners?

And where does it extract to?

Mine doesnt have a documents and settings folder.

WPI... I got the RunOnce pop up from the autoit installer (it exited on its own) then WPI continued installing the rest of my programs. On reboot Nero setup restarted, it extracted and installed successfully.

It’s extracted to the environment variable %TEMP% together with generated folder NERO*

Thanks again ricktendo64, that’s exactly what the script is intended to do. Maybe we all can conclude that this script doesn’t work @t-12 or @t-13? unsure.gif

Well I did not manage to install it once again...
On first logon installation fails,after restart (second logon) installation continues,extracts,tries to configure and install than BANG...look at the screenie...

I tried the script in a real unattended install and I am glad to report the installation went of perfectly, except for one small problem:
CODE
$UN = ""; UserName
$CN = ""; CompanyName

which seemed to work fine with the Nero 7 scripts, does not work here and I ended up with blanks where there ought to be the User and Company names. I would like to point out that I had simply made the above change to the scipt myself, so in case there are any other required changes that were made by CEoCEo to make this work, then that may be the problem. I compared my script with that of CEoCEo and my simply just making the above change is not enough since the script requires further entries to make it work. Lesson learnt, in future be more careful.

Thanks.

ill be trying an other way to install nero witht he script, instead of pakign the works in a sfx, ill leave all files ina folder and run the install from there on the disc,my guess is in a sfx,the temp files get deleted..so thtas prolly why teh script wasint finding the required files to finish setup,but ill launch it via a cmd file, i should launch it directly from the autoit script but i have some custom things that i want with my nero install,if it dosent work,ill try directly form the compiled autoit exe.if it still dosent work,i think adding support to search optical drives for the said file to finishup might be required.....

edit:ok finaly got nero 8 working via runonceex, at runonceex,i called the autoit script from a folder instaed of an sfx,and its called directly to the .exe not via cmd.and also,all is being installed from the disc.

So what exactly did you do?
ricktendo64
QUOTE (SuperDuy @ Oct 21 2007, 02:56 PM) *
So what exactly did you do?

Don't pack it with 7zip or WinRAR, because they are extracted to temp files which are deleted and cannot be called from again when you restart.
Just put the autoit installer and the Nero installer in a directory (such as WPI install directory on your disk) and call it from there, you will get a RunOnce box and the installer will fail, then during next boot the nero installer should run and install successfully during second login.

Yes I dont have it is in a folder to the desktop where does the files extract later though.
CEoCEo
@SuperDuy – I have already answered your question, please look here.

I have worked further with the script for you users to test... biggrin.gif

Changelog: 2.2
* Added: Major internal changes and revamped install routine
* Added: Optional fixed location for already extracted files
* Added: Option to delete extracted and temporary files after successful install
* Added: Optional restart procedure and internal support for 'GUIRun'

The big change is that the installer now tries to install anyway, even if file rename operations are pending and the extracted content can be reused after restart.
Please read the FAQ regarding the installation over at NeroAG site if you still have issues.

Script is found in my signature welcome.gif

I have 2 questions about the Nero 8.1.1.0b autoit script.

First:
For the variable $ID, what is wrong with my installation directory code? The script generated an error during install saying my installation directory was not valid.

Here is a screenshot-->Click to view attachment

Below is the code I used in the .au3 file:
QUOTE
$ID = @ProgramFilesDir & "\Nero"


Second:
I don't understand what I need to put for the $EF variable. I have just been leaving it blank, as I am simply running the .exe package I directly downloaded from Nero. Is that what I should be doing?

QUOTE
$EF = ""; Already extracted folder example: $EF = "D:\Apps\Extracted\Nero8"


Any help to these questions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot for the amazing script, btw!

You don't have to specify any path when using this script. Leave these settings blank as it will use the standard directory for your programs anyway. These settings are for more experienced users who want to install in/from a different location and they have to be fixed as it seems it will not work when adding macros like @ProgramFilesDir.

Hi CE0Ceo,

Thanks for the script. But I still cannot install nero 8 with or without the script. The msg said "the wizard was interupted before nero 8 demo before completely installed" keep appear. Can u help me?
CEoCEo
@Yadzil - This is not an easy problem to solve because there are so many aspects that need to be looked at. I really do hope you don't get this right after an unattended installation, otherwise you are in real trouble finding what is causing this message. no.gif
Please look through the installation-FAQ… and if that is not helping, you should try Nero CleanTool. After a quick search on other forums there can be troubles with ASPI-layers and certain configurations, but that one is really rare. Otherwise I'm clueless… wacko.gif
yadzil
Thanks CEoCeo.

I manage to install Nero 8. Seem Nero 8 needs windows update need to be enable.

But I think this methode is the simplest. Even it like the previous version of nero silent install.

But what the different the swicth '/qb' and '/qb!' that been used in nero version 7?
kid1988
I used the script from the first page, then slightly adjusted it it works, also customized...:

it works without the first lines, but you do need some of the files in that part
this is the part I edited:

I got these from a NERO 7 installation so they might not all work

to bad smartstart keeps crashing on my pc (vista ultibate x64)
yadzil
Whre did you find this methode kid1988?

I tried your way but failed. Maybe the code listed for each component not correct for nero 8. I only can use your script without ADDLOCAL part
kid1988
It worked with the addlocal extentions I used. it may be possible that not all the features listed have NERO8 counterparts with the same name.
you could check the \Data\Redist\Config\Conf.txt file for the correct extentions.

i tested the particulair script I posted on my PC, Windows Vista Ultimate x64 with UAC disabled, and the installation worked fine, except for smartstart not running after installation.
be sure to have admin rights

do you have any error messages?

this is the way I installed:

Run setup.
extract the NERO13820 dir from the %temp% directory (like stated in the post on the first page)
make a "SCRIPT.CMD" file with notepad including the above scipt and paste it in the NERO13820 directory
run the scipt.
it should automaticly install all the components listed in the script, and execute the SetupX.exe with the set preferences.
I don't really know how I got to it. I was just experimenting with NERO7 and NERO8 scripts in my virtual machine. when it eventually worked I ran the script in my VISTA environment, and it worked. except for some post-installation issues..

I checked the file, the extention are the same but only the order is differents and there are some components that are not included in Nero 8 or 7. Are the order effect the script too?

Yaa u are right, I also have problem starting start smart.

Yes I have a few error message during installation mention some files cannot be found. What kind of error message did u have?

I still having problem using your script Kid1988 with ADDLOCAL parameters even I use tne components code in Nero 8. The error message code 2711 always came out. But not without ADDLOCAL parameters.

This is CMD parameters:

Edit out your serial yadzil
yadzil
I finally able to install using ADDLOCAL parameters after I exclude NeroCDDVDSpeed82602EE0, NeroDriveSpeed7DFFCC12, and NeroBurn5AD292D8. But still when installation in progress I have 2 error message telling me that 2 files cannot be registered which are :

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Nero\Lib\NMAudioCDContentHandler.dll
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Nero\Lib\NMHDirServices.dll

I think some components cannot be install individually, must be install together with other component which I don't know what they are.

Can u help me kid1988?

One other things, I find out that, the size and numbers of file of extracted installation file increase after installation.

Hey CeoCeo I Managed to edit the MSI and create a .mst file that will allow me to install the nero disccopy gadget on XP and I was wondering if it was possible for me to edit the script to include it in the install

Click to view attachment
Where do you suggest I put it, do I put it in the same dir as the installer and autoit launcher?

I want to use this type variable to give the location of my DiscCopy.mst but I dunno how
CODE
@ScriptDir & "DiscCopy.mst"

Can you show me how to implement it if I put the mst in the same dir as the autoit file?
CEoCEo
Sure ricktendo64, nice find by the way… newwink.gif
Search and replace...
CODE
$SN &
...with...
CODE
$SN & ' TRANSFORMS="' & @ScriptDir & '\DiscCopy.mst"' &
That should apply the transform, but the Gadget didn't got installed when I tried it. Hopefully you have better luck!
yadzil
I can't use burning rom to burn cd/dvd. message sorry, this Nero version support recorders only". It still the same even I change th burnright setting. Can someone help me.
ricktendo64
Thank you CeoCeo it worked perfectly biggrin.gif



BTW I think the reason the .mst did not work for you is in your script you have to turn on CopyGadget=1 and another is that .mst files are pretty choosy, they only seem to work on the .msi file that it was created on. I made mine with Nero v8.1.1.0b

I don't understand the first thing about scripted install's. the script I made was just using the script on the first page, and some common sense.
some of the parameters might be incorrect. or might indeed, as you said, not co-exist..

I cant recall what exact error message I got with smartstart. something about DLL's and then the application crashes. but the problem also exist when I manually install the app.

I got nero 7 working, with a working script.
I'll still try some nero8 scripts later this week, keep me posted on anything you find!

Hi yiepinhsu,

Do we really need VCRedistSetup.msi and neroxml.msi? What are those file do?
zippa634
I installed Nero 8.1.1 using the Nero8_2.2.au3 installation script and experienced a problem I hope someone can help me solve.
The script installs automatically and does not open the installation dilog box which is used to choose the installation of the InCD program. This program is not installed with the other programs but is turned "off" by the default set by Nero.
When I attempted to install InCD ,after the initial installation of the Nero 8 software, the installation program will reinstall the entire Nero 8 package rather than only adding the InCD program.
Will this reinstallation of the entire Nero 8 package remove the beneficial functions provided by using the Nero8_2.2.au3 installation script?
If it will does anyone know how to add the InCD installation to the Nero8_2.2.au3 installation script?
I have tried to install the InCD program using a stand alone .exe, available from the Nero.com site, but it will not install unless the entire Nero 8 program is uninstalled first.
I would really appreciate anyones help in solving this problem of how to add the InCD program without removing the functions of the Nero8_2.2.au3 installation script. Please help.
Thanks, Zippa634

THere is no need to email me a question which is essentially identical to this post.
I didn't write that AutoIt script. Without searching the forums, memory tells me 'boardbabe' had made a Nero script.

Hopefully someone familiar with AutoIt will assist you here.


I merged your topic with this existing topic to better find you the help you seek

CEoCEo
@Shark007 – Please merge thread to this topic instead. [done. thanks.]

@zippa634 – You don't have to reinstall the entire Nero 8 package. Please read through the FAQ regarding InCD.

It's not possible to make the install of InCD unattended if you don't make use of MST-transforms, as far as I know.
In the "Condition" table using Orca, change the feature "InCDC9AC4AC7" from "1=1" to "CC9AC4AC7=0"
See this post to modify the script to handle transforms. newwink.gif

Put your question here: http://www.msfn.org/board/Making-Nero-8-si...ll-t105340.html
or PM to CeoCeo.
zippa634
Thanks Shark007 for moving my post to the appropriate area.
CEoCEo, I trie to install InCD using the method specified by Nero but the installation program turned itself off after the Nero congiguring process. The only way I was able to install InCD was to uninstall the entire Nero 8 program, Clean the registry with Registry Firat Aid, Install the stand alone InCD program, and then reinstall Nero 8 using the silent install. Everything works finw now. Pass this onto anyone else who has the same problem. I do not know how to write code so I did not folow your suggestion to read the post that described the process of changing the installation script. Thanks a lot for all your help in soving this.

The msi works fine with a /q switch as long as you install the neroxml.msi and VCredist.msi before that. Run the msi with the 1033.mst transform and change the properties to select which Features to install.

Now...my problem is that I need to make an admin install so I can deploy the app using Radia. Another forum member posted a similar issue with Nero 7.x.x.x. After the admin install is created, the cab files get extracted to [FILELOCATION] folders. When you try to run the msi from the admin point, it faill. The log says it fails on the RunLicenseDialog action but I ahve looked for it and it shouldn't be causing any problems. I think the msi is confused as to what to look for.

Anyone had a similar problem?

I've actually mailed Nero support to ask them to create and admin install and try run it from a test machine of theirs.
gyrfalcon
So how do you install InCD with the script? Installing it afterwards with the Nero ControlCenter doesn't work and just gives me this error:
