ummmm...dont know wht is the mistake ( or mistakes? ) in answer file...

<Path>cmd /c ";FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX AppzRoot %i: -m";</Path>

you see them ; at each end of your command, dont think they should be there
first remove those and see if you get any better then

must be a way to check if AppzRoot is getting set. I don't install my apps there but wait till the desktop where I can see whats going on. You might put that in a cmd file and call it and put a pause in it. When it pauses hit shift F10 and type Set and see if your variable is setting.

ummm...well..i am testing whole setup on VMware each time i m making changes in answer file....above settings didnt work for me yet.....do u know any other way to install appz? i mean using a batch command which execute all setups....!

That's not the problem. SETX sets it to system environment (Registry), if everything is working properly. I've always been using the SETX command during specialize pass without any probs.

But amit is not the first, having problems with the command. Just can't figure out why so far, cause I've to less feedback.


@amit:
First remove the ";" like maxXP said. Than please make sure, to move the command back to specialize pass!

If you're using

CODE
SETX AppzRoot %%i: -m


than your command to call the installer must look like this:

cmd /c %AppzRoot%\install\Acrobat Reader\AdobeReader80.exe /sAll /rs



If you're using

CODE
SETX AppzRoot %%i:\ -m


than you have to use

b]cmd /c %AppzRoot%install\Acrobat Reader\AdobeReader80.exe /sAll /rs
[/b]


In your actual Autounattend.xml you're setting AppzRoot without a "\", that means it will set AppzRoot=E: for example.

Than you're calling the apps installers without a "\", so your actual call looks like this for example:

cmd /c E:install\Acrobat Reader\AdobeReader80.exe /sAll /rs

That means there is a missing "\" and setup can't find the path.



If this still should not trouble shoot it, try that:

Put all the commands into one single cmd file called run.cmd for example and than let run this batch from first logon command. Use the commads without cmd /c at the beginning. Look here for more details.


Could you please check if Appsroot variable is set at all. In your final Vista installation click on Start, type cmd and in the opening command prompt type:

CODE
set


please let me know, if you find an entry called Appsroot.

Regards,
Martin

thnx martin....u got the point...thts whr i did mistake.... path was set to "AppzRoot %%i: -m" and i was using command "..%AppzRoot%install\.." instead of "..%AppzRoot%\install\.."...grrr...how noob question frm me ...lol...anyways...i hope this will fix the problem....will let u know again wht happens nxt...


thnx to both of u guys for proper replies and guidance smile.gif

Hello Amit!

Have you put the FOR loop back to specialize pass?

Hello amit!

Sorry, I'm talking about that command here:

CODE
cmd /c "FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX AppzRoot %i: -m"


Where do you put this command to? Specialize pass or audit pass? If you put it into audit pass, than please put it back to sepcialize pass.

Regards,
Martin

Apr 27 2007, 01:41 PM
oops...yeah i have put it in audit path....but why it wont work in audit path? confused.gif will move it to specialize path...though i just want to know why it wont work in audit mode?

QUOTE

Well, can't tell for sure. But AFAIK system envrionment variables a loaded to the system environment only once - when the session starts. So if you let run the command in audit pass, than the session has already be started. SETX will set the AppzRoot variable to the registry than, but it will be present in during session after next logon.

This is the reason, why I put it to specialize pass. The system will reboot, before logon to audit pass, so the session is started again and AppzRoot variable is present.

Martin

Apr 27 2007, 01:53 PM
oh ...it mean a reboot is needed to start autoapps session. thnx for providing info martin....atleast i got some more knowledge caz of this apps error biggrin.gif lol
FireGeier
Apr 27 2007, 01:57 PM
Well, I don't know for sure if a complete reboot is necessary and you don't have to set one. Please don't missunderstand.

But system will logon to audit passes. That means from my point of view, that a new session is started and system environment is reloaded. Cause first it will run auditSystem pass and second auditUser when booting to audit mode.

But I don't know everything. So might be wrong.

Martin

Hello Amit!

You need to set a Description in WSIM for all these synchronous commands, than you will see the Description only instead of full path. If you don't use the description, it seems to be that setup creates one by path info.

Hello Yurek!

Change this here inside Autounattend.xml,

CODE
<Path>cmd /c ";FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX AppzRoot %i: -m";</Path>


to:

CODE
<Path>cmd /c "FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX AppzRoot %i: -m"</Path>


The ";" supposed not to be there. Don't know for the moment where it's comming from, but just remove it manually from your Autounattend.xml.

@Yurek3

No the Autounattend.xml file should reside both in the root of your dvd & in the sources folder.
Appzroot.txt is simply a 'zero byted" text file.(You need to make this with your favorite editor & name it Appzroot.txt) this identifies your appz location that tell windows where to install from.

I'm sorry can't explain this any simpler than that.

Hello Yurek3!

Do you have adapted wpi files to use them with Vista like described here?

Note:
You're using %AppzRoot%, so you need to change that to %AppzRoot% for WPI, too.

Martin

dude...you did mistake here

you are using variable for your path
CODE
<Path>cmd /c %CDROM%GROM\WPI\WPI.exe /sAll /rs</Path>


now instead of
CODE
<Path>cmd /c ";FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX CDROM %i: -m";</Path>


use
CODE
<Path>cmd /c ";FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppzRoot.txt SETX CDROM %i:\ -m";</Path>


now it will work for sure.

Hi Firegeier

I have the same problem as Amit when running a windows 7 unattended installation. I built my Autounattend.xml using the latest WAIK (WSIM). For some reason the audituser pass runsynchronous commands for installing applications don't start at all. The setup just skips that audituser step and passes to "oobeSystem".

this is what I have in specialize pass:

CODE
cmd /c "FOR %i IN (C D E F G H I J K L N M O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %i:\AppsRoot.txt SETX AppsRoot %i: -m"


The latest WAIK and Windows 7 introduced some changes. For start, the builtin Administrator account is disabled by default, not like in vista, where it was enabled. So I deleted the Administrator autlogon pass from "auditSystem" , and I added the "Reseal" command instead of "sysprep /audit /quiet" which hangs. The help file says the Reseal with audit option does the same thing, and this is the new way of sysprepping the system and entering the audit mode. it doesn't work. I tried letting the Administrator account and still doesn't work.

Anyways, the RunSynchronous commands don't start at all in "audituser" pass.

The system just logs on using the user I created afterwards.

I'm going to attach two versions of my Autounattend.xml, one without the Administrator autologon account.

I think that the runsynchronous commands don't start because there is no Administrator account logged on. I created one and testing it next. Let's see how it goes.

edit: didn't work. It doesn't autologon to the Administrator account. It didn't even create it.

edit2: i uploaded the original autounattend.xml, the one with the administrator account autologon. i made it starting from Firegeier's vista guide. As I already said, the administrator account is disabled by default. I cant install te applications in audit mode and sysprep. All I can do is install the apps in oobe phase, logged as a normal user. then I can't sysprep generalize no more.

I've read here on this forum that this can be done with the help of another xml file, unattend.xml used togheter with Autounattend.xml. Can't find the post. Do you know how that is done?
