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

ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD FOR %%%%i IN (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) DO IF EXIST %%%%i:\%MBOOTPATH%I386\SVCPACK (
ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD 	SET HFSLIP=%%%%i:\%MBOOTPATH%I386\
ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD 	SET HFSLIPSVC=%%%%i:\%MBOOTPATH%I386\SVCPACK\
ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD )

with these:

ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD 	SET HFSLIP=%%~dp0..\
ECHO>>SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK\HFSLIP.CMD 	SET HFSLIPSVC=%%~dp0

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.

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.

REN WORK\I386E\I386\dxtrans.dll dxtrans2.dll

is wrong.

REN WORK\I386E\dxtrans.dll dxtrans2.dll

is correct?

[tommyp]

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.

04/19/2009 14:23:12.456,d:\xpsp\base\ntsetup\syssetup\ctls.c,521,,SETUP: C:\WINDOWS\system32\proctexe.ocx did not register successfully

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.

Hello.

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

First:

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.

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

[tommyp]

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