Im getting the following error in my log file:

Quote

C:\Unattend\RIS\BTS\BTS_DriverPacks_BASE_V6034.exe
1 file(s) copied.

7-Zip 4.39 beta Copyright © 1999-2006 Igor Pavlov 2006-04-13

Processing archive: BTS_DriverPacks_BASE_V6034.exe

Error: BTS_DriverPacks_BASE_V6034.exe is not supported archive

I am suppose to use that file right?

Ive put it in the BTS folder and 2 driver packs in the driverpacks_store folder

[Fencer128]

Hi,

Can you try downloading the BASE pack again? It sounds like it may be corrupt. I've not seen that error before.

The BASE file should be in the BTS folder.

The DriverPacks should be in the DriverPacks_Store folder.

Failing all of the above, try re-downloading RISult in case that got corrupted somehow.

Let me know how it goes,

Andy

I did and i get the same error. Im not suppose to extract it first before running risult.cmd right?
Apparently 7z is trying to extract it but cant. Is it suppose to do that?

Hi,

Correct. RISult does the extraction, you don't need to.

I can't think why it's not working for you.

Could you please try going to the 7zip homepage and downloading the latest stable 7zip? Having done that, extract it and drop 7z.exe into the BTS folder (overwriting the one supplied with RISult)?

It may be something I've somehow missed with the version of RISult I've included, though I used it last week without incidence.

Hopefully, that should be the end of it. If it does fix the issue for you, I'll update the RISult download ASAP.

Cheers,

Andy

Apparantly i had to install the 7zip program on my risserver. I dident know I had to do that.

Oke it works!

But im getting another error.

Performing post-integration processing on RIS file set...
The system cannot find the file specified.
Done.

I dont know which file that would be though. Maybe it wont even be a problem. Going to test out my image now.

Hi,

You shouldn't have to install 7zip on your RIS server, so something's else must be wrong.

I suspect this also has something to do with the other errors you're getting.

Can I check that you're using:

Windows Server 2003 Standard/Enterprise SP1 (RIS server)
Windows XP Professional SP2 (client)

You are using vanilla XP file sets (i.e. straight from CD) and not nlited, etc?

That you have read the instructions enclosed with RISult.

Also, can you please copy the 7z.exe file from the z-zip program folder to the RISult BTS folder (overwriting the existing 7z.exe) and then uninstall 7-zip through Add/Remove programs? This will show whether it is the 7z.exe file itself that is the issue.

Cheers,

Andy

Im using a test risserver which is on a virtual PC maybe thats the cause. The virtual pc is located on the workstation I currently use.

Here's what I did.
I downloaded 7zip and then copied 7z.exe to the Ris server(virtual PC) and then tried to extract with it. No go.
Only after i had installed the 7zip application on the Risserver was I able to extract with 7z.exe

[Fencer128]

Hi,

That's weird, as the only file that's used AFAIK is 7z.exe.

Anyhow, I'll investigate and see if I can't reproduce.

Cheers,

Andy

Hi all,

Some of you may know that I've got a new job, and so my current employer will no longer be able to host RISult for me. As such, I'm doing a couple of things:

1. Changing from .zip to .7z compression method in order increase compression efficiency.
2. Looking for new hosting.

The download links for RISult may therefore be changing shortly, so please be patient.

Thanks,

Andy

ps - There will be more drastic changes in store when Bashrat releases his new utility...

Just two short questions Andy. Why is the restart at the end of the installation necessary and how can I check if the hotfixes from RyanVM have actually been installed?

Also thanks for Risult it works great!

Hi,

I haven't got the time to completely trouble shoot this at the moment, but it could be related to the previous issues mentioned in this thread. I suggest that you install the latest stable version of 7-zip on your PC, then copy the 7z.exe from the 7-zip program folder over the copy in RISult's ...\BTS folder. Then re-run RISult.

Let me know how it goes.

Cheers,

Andy

[chiners_68]

Could it be that in this latest risult its a 7z.exe & in the previous risult i have its a 7za.exe there is an a difference on the exe file names.???

[chiners_68]

mine is working now... the file does have to be 7z.exe. i basically grabbed the 7za.exe from my previous version of risult, renamed the file to 7z.exe & put in the new risult file set in bts folder... drivers integrating ok now.

[Fencer128]

Hi,

You may well be right. I'll look into it as soon as I have a new host. I have no control over my old host for the moment, as I've just changed job in the last two weeks, and my previous host was my last employer... (also hence my lack of appearances/activity/updates).

Thanks for clearing that one up.

Cheers,

Andy

[Beest]

anyone knows why when I use the Driverpacks and add them to my RIS installation it does not do the cmdlines.txt anymore. Therefore also does not run the RunOnceEx.cmd.

Does this has to do with the setup.ex_ and the setuporg.exe?

[kfuemmel]

Fencer, great job with the RISult cmd file. Any plans to integrate this with BTS's new driverpack program and naming scheme? Thanks.

[chiners_68]

im eagerly waiting for risult to work with the new BTS system..

are you working on this one fencer??? can you give us an update..


cheers

[Fencer128]

Hi Guys,

I've not disappeared entirely...

I've just changed job and am busy setting up RIS there, along with a new RIS dev server I've bought for my home.

The end result is that I am looking at the new BTS installer and want to get it working with RISult ASAP.

I will keep you posted but it's not quite ready yet.

I'll post here as soon as I have more news.

Cheers,

Andy

Hello all,

Andy I have a problem and question for you. I have been able to use RISult to create the RIS i386 folder and that process has not given me any issues. I copied the $OEM$ and i386 folders to the RIS server and stopped/started the remote installation service. Went over to a system I needed to load Windows XP on and started the install process and the process locks up at: Setup is loading files (IEEE 1394 Bus OHCI Compliant Port Driver)... Had this up for 24 hours and no change.

So I am stuck, not too sure where to go. It has to be either a process I am missing or a file/s that have not been incorperated properly.

I am using: RISult ver. 1.1.7
RVM_integrator ver 1.4
RVM update pack 2.1.0
DPs Base ver 6061
DPs Lan and Mass storage packs still 7-zipped.

I did get some error messages just before the end of the RISult process.

I just ran RISult again and at the end of the process it gave me a bunch of errors.

[img=http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/6373/risulterrorsvu6.th.png]

Let me know if you need anything else.

Ok, just as a quick update..the motherboard I try the first install on was the DFI RDX200 with the NF4 chipset. More then likely my problem was an issue with the NF4 chipset. I was able to install the RISult image on a MSI motherboard with a VIA chipset and it worked fine.

I would like to know if RISult is able to integrate the NF4 and NF5 lan drivers when placing the drives in the 3rd party folder and what is that process so I do not mess it up?

Jim
