Tomcat76 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Share Posted March 13, 2007 You don't get it...I know how the silent/switchless installers are composed. I wrote the Silent .NET Maker script.The silent installers you will find are made like this:1) Extract package2) Create silent installer that runs the main exe in the extracted package with a silent switch*OR*1) Create administrative installation2) Create silent installer that runs the main MSI file in the extracted package with a silent switchNeither package brings up a usable file for HFSLIP. I need something like the INF file that installs .NET 1.0 on WinXP MCE.What I tried some time ago was exporting the registry changes after a manual installation of .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0. I'm exaggerating here but it seemed like .NET took up half of the registry. Plus, some stuff is localized. This would require the user to have .NET x.x installed so I could export the correct settings from their machine from a batch. Also, like this, you are never sure that you covered everything. Either way, if this would ever turn out to be useful, I won't implement it into HFSLIP directly because it would more than double its current size.

the_guy Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 An update to HFSLIP might be needed. Windows Server 2003 SP2 FINAL has been released. There are download pages on the download center, but it appears that the files haven't been uploaded yet.the_guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked and the file that it's supposed to update, i.e., MSSCP.DLL wasn't present on my system (both IE7 and WMP11 installed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 msscp.dll should be in your SYSTEM32 folder. The version in the update is newer than the one from the WMP11 codecs package (wmfdist11.exe, part of WMP11). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johndoe74 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 found it. my mistake. sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johndoe74 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 two points regarding win2k1. qfecheck (Q282784) doesn't seem to be supported. I put the patch in the HF and it didn't get installed.2. XP icons for Win2K didn't install in the original form (xpicons_silentv2.ex_) whether I used the HFSVCPACK or the HFSVCPACK_SW folder. I eventually renamed the file to xpicons_silentv2.exe and it worked just fine from HFSVCPACK. I believe (although not 100% sure) that it worked quite alright as .ex_ in a previous build of HFSLIP via the HFSVCPACK folder (tho I'm unsure which build it was) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 The QFECHECK hotfix is supported with the latest test release, but you must use the Windows XP version for Windows 2000. Reason: the XP hotfix required only a minimal change to the HFSLIP code (two characters) while the 2K hotfix needs more attention (it's very ugly). No errors show up during Windows 2000 installation and it's working too.Concerning your other question...I never knew SVCPACK.INF supports direct installation of compressed files. I can change the code a bit so that files with a *.EX_ extension are treated as if they were *.EXE files, but it may not work since EXE files are now installed from a CMD file.

johndoe74 Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 (edited) also another Win2K issue. The patch KB923689 (MS06-078) shows up missing under MBSA while no mention (whether present or not) of it is made under HFNetChk. The hotfix is, of course, present in the HF folder.Log files attached. Edited March 17, 2007 by johndoe74 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
