Glowy Posted March 20, 2005 Share Posted March 20, 2005 I'm using Xplode.here's an example of an MSI install:<execute display='Installing Citrix ICA Client 8.1...' program='%systemdrive%\Install\Applications\ICA 8.1\ica32pkg.msi' arguments='/QN' />Worked before.. dunno why it isn't working now...all I did was upgrade to the new XPCreate version, but I doubt that's the problem.I'm going to take out the clutter, make a new ISO with failsafe patches and one MSI installer..

Glowy Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 MSI Problem solved, it was the acrobat reader that gave control back to the install, but wasn't finished yet.But still no go for Messenger 5I made an iexpress package with messenger.msi in it following: http://greenmachine.msfnhosting.com/IEXPRESS/iexpress.htmbut still no messenger 5, but the messenger 4.7 directory is empty, except for one file lvback.gif so something started but didn't finish (?)homiebrah did you install 4.7 or did you exclude it in winnt.sif?

Nomad_2004 Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 I've IExpressed Windows Messenger 5.1 and placed it in SVC-EXE. While it does give me an error during setup about not being able to write to a registry key, it still seems to install and work correctly.Anyone know what switch I can use to suppress the error message? Or can someone tell me (in detail) what they've done to install it cleanly using IExpress?Thanks.[EDIT]Hmm, I don't actually know if I used msiexec /qn /i messenger.msi when I IExpressed it... I believe I only used /qn. I'll have to try it with /i. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glowy Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 While it does give me an error during setup about not being able to write to a registry key, it still seems to install and work correctly.It gives me an error on the registry too, but it isn't installederror is (translated from dutch so might not be exact):Product: Windows Messenger 5.1 -- Error 1406. Cannot write value DW0200 to key \Software\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReproting\DW\Installed. Systemerror. Check if you have sufficient rights to this key, or contact supporteventID: 11406Source: MsiInstaller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glowy Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 (edited) Owkay.. here is what I did,I opened the MSI with ORCA and removed the key2\Software\Microsoft\PCHealth\ErrorReproting\DW\InstalledDW0200and now it installs okay using iexpress. going to try it in SVC-WMS now.edit: SVC-WMS doesn't work If anyone wants the edited MSI files I can post them here (I made a Dutch and English version) Edited April 19, 2005 by Glowy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomad_2004 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 Thanks for the info. With the information in these posts, I was able to successfully (and silently) install Windows Messenger 5.1 by removing the registry key from messenger.msi using Orca.exe, then packaging it with IExpress using msiexec /qn /i messenger.msi as the setup command, and then putting the resulting file, messenger.exe, into SVC-EXE.That was the last piece I needed to finish my CD.

Glowy Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Glad to be of some help.That was the last piece I needed to finish my CD.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>same here... now I can get back to updating the software versions... I've been breaking my head over this one for quite some time.. but I'm glad it's cracked.. Don't really know what the key does. Something with office error reporting, can't be that important. And I didn't notice anything that didn't work.Still wondering why it worked for homiebrah.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homiebrah Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Still wondering why it worked for homiebrah..<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I don't use XPlode, so that may be the reason why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
