New final is coming up. I just need to do one more test.

Can you add information as a conclusion the work HFSLIP to the file HFSLIP.LOG (statistics)?

Such information appears during the work HFSLIP:

10,906,496 bytes in 18 files
Total files:			 18
Bytes before:	10,906,496
Bytes after:	  3,914,106
After/Before:			35.89% compression
Time:					27.56 seconds ( 0 hr  0 min 27.56 sec)
Throughput:			 386.43 Kb/second
Microsoft (R) Cabinet Maker - Version 5.1.2600.2180

(I see this before starting XPIZE)

The good way would be this to checking efficiency driver compression

What exactly is causing dziubek's problems with WU?

Everything is perfect on my end for XP. Just tested yesterday. Microsoft Update does not complain at all.

Edit: @dziubek, although I think that adding that information to HFSLIP.LOG is a great idea, know that the information is generated by the MAKECAB module. Tomcat would have to do something like this:

MAKECAB /F SP.DDF>>HFSLIP.LOG

although I think it would be more complicated than that.

I test HFSLIP _ 60415d.CMD. If he still not works WU. I will try very exactly to describe mine problem
Thanks for the interest.

dziubek, read my edited post.

I read your post. I would add also different information personally :
for the example
* the capacity of the original installation (source)
* the capacity HFSLIPED of the installation
* the time of the work HFSLIP
* Information about how much the percentage the installation increased or reduced


I probably found the guilty one of my problem with WU.I will write about this by in several hours

RC1, folks...

[Camarade_Tux]

Two questions :
1)is UPHClean slipstreamed or post-installed ?
It doesn't install on my computer. I've added an entry in WIHU to run specific softs to see if they can be installed at T-12 so I'll check this in a moment.
2)UpdateAgent2 is slipstreamed, right ?
I saw no installer in SOURCESS. The problem is that nLite doesn't remove it anymore. (I know, this sounds strange to update it and just after to remove it.)

[Super-Magician]

UPHClean is post-installed at T-13 with the rest of the stuff in SVCPACK. You should find UPHClean.MSI in SOURCESS\I386\SVCPACK. Make sure it is there.

Windows Update Agent 2.0 is definitely slipstreamed.

I was pretty sure, I have a problem with UPHClean.
It's not the first time I put it in HF and it never got installed, while it has always been in SVCPACK.

Here is HFSLip.cmd from SVCPACK:

@ECHO OFF
IF EXIST %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32\CMDOW.EXE cmdow @ /HID 
Title HFSLIP 
FOR %%i IN (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:\I386\SVCPACK SET HFSLIP=%%i:\I386
REM MOVE/Y %SYSTEMROOT%\TEMP\Classic.wmz "%PROGRAMFILES%\Windows Media Player\Skins"
FOR /F %%I IN ('DIR /B %SYSTEMROOT%\*.TMP') DO ( 
	ATTRIB -R %SYSTEMROOT%\%%I 
	DEL /F /Q %SYSTEMROOT%\%%I 
	) 
SET PREP=%~dp0
CD /D %HFSLIP%
OEUPDATE Q823353
EXIT

I REMmed a line because I removed WMP with nLite.

HFSlip.log : http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?act=At...e=post&id=12184
(with my LastSession.ini 'cause it comes from anotherpost)


edit : UPHClean's name is exactly "UPHCLEAN.MSI".

Guess what, Camarade_Tux?

This is probably why UPHClean is not installed: A new version was released on 4/7/2006!



Edit: I'm having another feeling about this. This version and the one I already have are the same file size: 336,896 bytes.

@Tomcat: I noticed you removed KB905915 from your XP update list. According to the_guy's post earlier, it is only removed for IE 5.01 SP4.

You're right : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...en&Hash=SY534SC

btw, I found something that is imho interesting in its readme.txt:

Quote

INSTALLATION
============

To automatically install it (you need uphclean-setup.msi):
- Double click the setup.msi

To manually install it (you need a copy of uphclean.exe):

- Create a directory under Program Files for the service
(e.g. c:\program files\uphclean)
- Copy the program (uphclean.exe) to the directory
(e.g. c:\program files\uphclean\uphclean.exe)
- Open a command prompt on the computer
- Change directory where you copied the program
(e.g cd \program files\uphclean)
- Run the program with the -install switch to install the service and start it
(e.g. uphclean -install)

The service is set to automatically start when the computer boots so you will
not need to start it manually. Below I've listed the events that you will find
in the application log when it takes positive steps to unload profile hives.

However, I don't know how to get uphclean from a .msi file.

(and this will be appended to my previous post)

From readme.txt, removal instructions.

Quote

If you manually installed:
- Run the program with the -remove switch to stop the service and remove it
(e.g. uphclean -remove)
- Remove the UPHClean directory under c:\program files

[Super-Magician]

See if you can open UPHClean-Setup.msi using the attached tool.

[attachment removed]

We used to have to put this in HFTOOLS to extract MSI files. I think Tomcat/tommyp has somehow found a way around this (at least for msxml6.msi, I think). It's possible that you still have to put it in HFTOOLS - I hope Tomcat will be able to resolve this issue.

The "IE 5.01SP4 only" part applies to 910620.

905915 = IE5.01 & IE6
910620 = IE5.01
912812 = IE5.01 & IE6

I know I'm not Tomcat, but I kno why (well, almost know). A new IE update was released last week. Tomcat should have 912812 (which I'm sure he has)

He has it. Thanks!

It did not work, it produces no interesting file.

[Tomcat76]

@Camarade_Tux

There's no need to REM out that line if you're using that old version of HFSLIP because that line doesn't work anyway. You'll have to REM out the line in a newer version, though, as it works *now*.

Alternatively, delete CLASSIC.WM_ from the SOURCE folder. HFSLIP only adds that line if the file exists. In fact, since you're removing WMP with nLite I suggest you remove CLASSIC.WM_ as it's being copied into the Windows folder through TXTSETUP.SIF. I don't think nLite prevents that from happening.

That's odd. I see the file it produces. Oh, well.

Now that I got you here...

If you only take OS updates into account, the FrontPage Server Extensions update only applies to Windows 2003. For Windows 2000 and Windows XP it only applies to components that don't come stock with these OS's (it's an Office XP update there).

Ignore that for now. Two questions:

(1) Do you still need MSICabExtract.exe in HFTOOLS for any MSI files?
(2) Is there actually a new version of UPHClean and will redownloading it solve Camarade_Tux's issue with it not installing?
