Has anyone experienced problem with Windows Installer after hfslip-1.7.9_beta_d.cmd on Windows Server 2003 SP2?
Installation process ran smoothly, but then I was forced to install WindowsServer2003-KB942288-v4-x86.exe, 'cause none of msi was able to install:
"The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance."
Am I missing something?

Thanx

KB942288 is not supported. You can however place it in HFSVCPACK_SW1 folder to be installed at T-13. Should end your problem.

Thanx for the working tip. The thing is, I never had a problem with Windows Installer in HFSLIP build, but I don't mind to have the latest version installed at T-13.
I was playing with hfslip-1.7.9_beta_f (see attached log) and everything works fine. Great and many thanx to all of you.
I'm unable to integrate 960715 without WU prompting this update, though. Only installing with RunOnceEx helps.
Guys, how do you deal with update 960715?

I apologize that I did not notice that you were working with Server 2003. Don't know how but I did. Well it was late and I was getting sleepy. Anyway, I am using hfslip-1.7.9_beta_d and XP SP3. With WindowsXP-KB960715-x86-ENU.exe in the HF folder, and WindowsXP-KB942288-v3-x86.exe in the HFSVCPACK_SW1 folder, I get a perfect install. Maybe what you are seeing is related specifically to Server 2003? Hope you can get it sorted out.

Current version has the following line that appears to be a bug:

Thanks Tain. Updated new beta.

Line 3,932 has almost the same bug.

I noticed after enabling AHCI my CD-ROM drive letter is moved to after my Removable Flash Drive causing error messages during setup at T13 when HFSLIP.cmd is detecting the drive letter.

I have written a patch for it as you can easily find the drive letter by reading the path.

Replace in the :UPDATEINIT section the following lines:

:UPDATEINIT

with these:



Another feature request while I'm now experimenting with integrating all driverpacks is to be able to manually specify HFSLIP export directory so I can redirect file copying to another drive. My experiments show a speed increase of about 50% when building a HFSLIP iso.

For example I have my XPSOURCE in C:\HFSLIP\SOURCE. Instead of copying everything to C:\HFSLIP\SOURCESS I have manually changed it to D:\SOURCESS which gives a major performance improvement. On ISO creation the same trick is done as now are files are read from the D: drive and copied back to the C:\HFSLIP directory.

Acheron - Good stuff. Can someone who does network installations test out those lines to see if it works for their environment? I have no problem changing the script, as long as a network installer can verify this.

New beta up to address the dx9 hotfix & software license. Thanks for submitting the dx9 prob Brimborium & thanks to jimmsta for the creative commons agreement.

I integrated IE8 into WindowsXP PRO VL SP3 by using 1.7.9-beta_j.
In that case, dxtrans.dll was not installed. Moreover, some errors were recorded in syserr.log.

It is in the line 2416 of 1.7.9-beta_j.
is wrong.

is correct?

That line of code looks odd. Nice find! Can you rename the line as you mentioned, retest and report back? BTW, that line came from here.

I renamed the line, and tested actually.

Content of setuplog.txt before line is corrected.

After correcting the line.


Additionally, dxtrans.dll had not existed in the file list of system information on IE8 before correcting the line. It came to exist after the line had been corrected.

Thanks for finding and fixing the bug wsmith. New beta released to fix this issue.

Devs:

For your reference, here is my exclude.txt:



Here is my hfslip.log



Hopefully this helps bring the beta one step closer to release. Thanks for all your hard work into HFSLIP!

Hello.

Two strange error occours in my windows 2000 sp4 splitstream with hfslip-1.7.9_beta_k.cmd

First:

On fase T-13 in install Kazaa Lite Mega Codec Pack, RegServ32 failed to register Ivfsrv.ax. Error code is 0x5

This file is placed on C:\Windows\System32

I try to click on retry and not sucessful. Click on Ignore and install continue.

Second error:

On finish install, explorer.exe crashed and desktop not loaded. I send Control Alt Del and reset. On new boot attempt, explorer.exe crash again in a desktop init.

Not show any desktop icon, no taskbar, none. Only a black screen and mouse cursor.

In attach my hfslip.log

I'd recommend to make your hotfix list agree with the stickied post on this forum. You have a variety of flavors of mdac and wmp hotfixes you're trying to slipstream. You'll need to make a decision what flavor you'd like and use that flavor only (i.e. mdac 2.5 vs mdac 2.8 and wmp7 vs wmp9).

help...

Is correct kb960715 not to copy no archive during the process?

Extract of hfslip.log sees one below

WindowsXP-KB960715-x86-PTB.exe
0 arquivo(s) copiado(s)

I thank any aid

The activex bits hotfix is just an registry change. No files are inside the hotfix installer other than the necessary registry fixes.

I am thankful for answering, tommyp.

Congratulations for the magnificent work!

Hi
I'm having a error after the install. Without IE8, i don't have this error. XP sp3 ptbr clean.

hfslip log
http://rapidshare.com/files/230706748/HFSLIP.LOG.html

And the error in setuperr.log

Erro:
O Programa de Instalação não pôde registrar o controle OLE C:\WINDOWS\system32\occache.dll devido ao seguinte erro: GetProcAddress retornou o erro 127 (procedimento especificado não encontrado).


***

Translated:

Error:
Setup could not register the OLE Control C:\WINDOWS\system32\occache.dll because of the following error: GetProcAddress returned error 127 (the specified procedure could not be found).

For starters, please rename your working directory so it's just a string of characters... instead of D:\T‚cnica\aba\xp\hfslip_sp3_maio_2009\ you should use D:\Tcnica\aba\xp\hfslip_sp3_maio_2009\. Also, you'll need to check to be sure that you aren't including any IE6/OE6 updates. Don't worry, I won't take the fun away from you by comparing hotfix lists.

I changed the path to D:\hfslip_sp3_maio_2009. I'm using the update page maintained by you (tommyp) as source to updates (http://www.vorck.com/windows/hotfixes_xp.html). And i have checked for IE6/7 updates and i found none (i don't have downloaded them). I've downloaded a second time IE8 using other pc, and the result its the same.

edit: same thing using just ie8 as update.

I have same occache.dll error, in setuperr.log. ( Setup could not register the OLE Control )

Its hfslip.log consists that you are bringing up to date the Windows 2003 and not XP. The problem would not be occurring for conflict of hotfix of XP SP3 with this its system?

It's xp sp3. I'm using win2003 to build.

Hi everyone.

I tried the latest beta, but it didn't quite work for me.

I removed IE7 and ALL IE7 HFs.

I included IE8 and IE8-kb969497 in HF, plus the usual stuff: WMP11, WUA30, WU/MU cabs, flash cabs, kb890830,all HF, necessary tools/fixes in HFTOOLS.
(exactly the same as I always do, which works like a charm, except I replaced IE7 with IE8 and removed IE7 hfs)

Slipstreaming went fine, windows installed fine, but
a) the "show desktop" icon is missing from quicklaunch.

b)Upon running IE8 for the first time i get a few errors. Two windows pop-up, one says "0% of / of es.msn.com completed" and the other -on top the first- says "internet explorer can not download / from es.msn.com" and more bla bla "Internet explorer can not open this website...bla bla bla".
c)Entering an URL in the run box, gets me a window asking what do i want to do with the file "www.google.cl" (for example). If i press "search" i get the page with the extensions and associated programs, but I can't go anywahere from there.
e)The "internet options" window appears in IE6-style.

did i do s/thing wrong?
Oh, and BTW I found a bug, while processong IE8, hfslip still uses the "WORK\IE7" path, that should be changed to "WORK\IE8" when it finds IE8 in HF...

here's my logfile: (please note the missing "MSIE version" line when using IE8)

BTW, installing IE8 over the non-working IE makes everything work again.

Wait!!! It seems the "easy install" feature of vmware screws things up (it's not the first time i've had probs with this). I did a "difficult" install and this time it went fine. Still no "show desktop" icon, though. It would be neat if it could be restored!.

Temporarily, running this batch file does the trick:

@echo off
echo [Shell] >>"%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf"
echo Command=2 >>"%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf"
echo IconFile=explorer.exe,3 >>"%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf"
echo [Taskbar] >>"%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf"
echo Command=ToggleDesktop >>"%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Show Desktop.scf"

Good night friends, I'm using HFSLIP with Windows XP SP3 PT-BR and When I SlipStream Internet Explorer 8 and make the ISO, During the Files Copy to HD Stage I Receive the error from a Missing "IE8Props.Propdesc", "iesettng.dll", "iesettng.mui" and the full unatented instalations doesn't Goes on. Can You Help with it please? *-*

PS: the error is during windows instalation files copy in VMWARE 6.5 using any install type.

here's My log.


...edit by tommyp - learn how to create a zip file and attach it next time.

You're using hfslip 2.0, which is tomcat76's software. Tomcat has been missing for about a year at this point. I suppose that you can say that hfslip2.0 is obsolete. Can't be much help with your log there, unless you go back to hfslip1.

Thanks For answer tommyp and sorry for the attachment, next time i'll attach a txt to you, when i make the operation with HFSLIP 1.78 i have the same results, i'll make the test now and post the result to you editing this post^^ Thanks for the attention!

So, now that IE8 works with winXP, does it work for 2k3 also? (I mean the slipstreaming)

bye!

Here Tommyp, The log you asked for! Thanks in advance for any help^^

Dude, you need the latest beta to slipstream IE8!!!!!
You're using an old version, dload the latest from the first message in this thread and try again...

Thanks For Answer Jvidal, But, I'm Using the latest PT-BR Version (Here's The Download URL), Maybe it can be some files missing in PT-BR Version, When i Extracted the Installer there Was a "IE8Props.Propdesc" File in extracted directory but, can't Find "iesettng.dll" and "iesettng.mui". Sorry For my low knowledge, i'm a starter^^ And thank you very much to all you^^

jvidal is saying that you need the latest beta of HFSLIP, which can be obtained from the first post of this thread...

ah^^ my fault^^ Thank you very much friend^^

Hope you can get it to work now, simbionte.

BTW, what about win2k3 & IE8 with the latest hfslip beta? does it work?

bye!

Thank you very much! I done what you told me and it's worked! i was using the HFSLIP Version from the HFSLIP.ORG Download page, and don't know about this new version^^ Thanks to you all for patience with starters and for your kindness! i will now keep reading the forum to learn more and become more experienced to help others like you do! Thank you very much people!

jvidal,
I haven't tested it, but you can do a test run if you do some editing. Open the script, locate line 381 and insert the following code after it.

IF EXIST HF\IE8-WindowsX* FOR /F %%I IN ('DIR/B HF\IE8-WindowsServer2003-x*') DO SET IE8EXE=%%I&SET DefExcHF=%DefExcHF% \-win IE8

(the above should be one line, not two as displayed)

Report back your findings.
tommyp

Thanks, Tommy!
I'll do it and report back!

c ya soon!

PD: it's line 384, not 381 (there are 3 blank lines near the begining of the script)

ok, did it.
Unfortunately, it didn't work. It gets completely ignored. After installation, i only get IE6 SP2. It seems hfslip simply ignored IE8 during slipstreaming.

Hope you can make it work.
Thx!

The issue with the current "k" version is the following code:



The directx error that I've seen mentioned here about being fixed in these last couple versions I do not get using version "g". However, using the "k" version unmodified gives me the OLE error in setuperr. Using version "g" results in no errors for me in setuperr. Likewise, removing the above code results in no errors in setuperr. I do not have time to test this tonight but I will tomorrow to see whats going on. Also note I am slipstreaming IE7 not IE8 nor have I tried to. I am using the March2009 redist directx and I have a volume licensed copy of xp which allows IE7 to be slipstreamed. I have also triple checked my hotfix list and it replicates whats on the current list maintained here.

Just figured I would point this out

sabre - Thanks for the inputs. Have you verified your suggestion with all flavors of IE?

Have not but will do later tonight. I will check ie6,7,8 and figure out what's going on.

BTW, any idea why IE8 slipstreaming doesn't work on w2k3? I added the line, but it got completely ignored by HFSLIP...

My bad, try this line of code instead.. make a new line 382 and place there. BTW, when posting your hfslip.logs, please ZIP them instead.

IF EXIST HF\IE8-WindowsS* FOR /F %%I IN ('DIR/B HF\IE8-WindowsServer2003-x*') DO SET IE8EXE=%%I&SET DefExcHF=%DefExcHF% \-win IE8

With my minimal testing last night, ie6 and ie7 work with out that code, ie8 does not. I will look at this either tonight or tomorrow a d get something to remedy this.

thx, tommy.
I assume I have to replace the line I added with this one, right?

bye!

PD: BTW, I just realized, it's the "S" instead of the "X"...

Alright, I tested it. Didn't go very well.
First, I found problems during the txt-based part of the setup. While copying files, at 88%, it started complaining that it couldn't copy advpack.mui and several other .mui files, plus some dlls (about 10 in total). After omitting those files, the process continued.
Then, at T-25, setup again complained that it couldn't copy iexplore.mui, hmmapi.mui, iedvtool.mui, plus a few more.
At T-13 a window titled c:\windows\system32\fixmapi.exe popped up saying that windows doesn't have acces to the device.
And several others, titled regsvr32.exe, rundll32.exe,etc.
After closing about a million of those windows, installation continued and finished. At first run, another million of those windows popped up and nothing works, can't run any program, every attempt generates a window saying that "Windows doesn't access to the device, path or..."

In short, it failed miserably. What could be wrong here?

bye!
