Hi Max,

first of all thanks for your project.
But I have a little problem with your project in case of the 0-preconfig.script
I choose my folder for the WAIK (for Win7) : C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\
I save the changes.
And in script.project the path in the variable %Waik7_Path% is given as C:\PROGRA~1\WI4A4E~1\
And therefore I got an error in the script 6-common.script because of the wrong path
Have I missed a setting?

Here the WinBuilder commands

StrFormat,SHORTPATH,"%pFileBox1%","%VarResult%"

  Set,"%Waik_Path%","%VarResult%",Permanent

are working.

IMO: When the resulting short path is the one you wrote above, it seems to be a bug of WinBuilder and cannot be fixed in Leopard.
@Max: Maybe you try a workaround with the original path?

EDIT: Just a crazy idea:

@Patsch: As German user, I assume that you have a standard programs folder "Programme" rather than "Program files".

May it be possible that Billy's API shortpath creation is a bit buggy?
Try the WAIK in "Programme"

if I set "C:\Programme\Windows AIK\" as WAIK folder I have the variable %Waik7_Path% filled with "C:\PROGRA~4\WI4A4E~1\"

I can't get any shell other than CMD, no matter what I choose in Build/Shell & Config. I have all the individual shell scripts selected.

I checked in the debugger.
This value is really coming from the WinAPI function GetShortPathName

This cryptic name is generated when a subdir name contains a space and is shorter than 12 (8.3) characters.

what shall I install where? The WAIK?
Btw I used the WAIK for other projects in the past and no fault there afair ...

@ JohnF
just an idea......
3-Shell & Config
Main Shell - Explorer and save settings, I have both Explorer Shell and BS Explorer selected in Shells

If WAIK is a problem I have built using a Win7 x86 source and disabling WAIK in PreConfig.

I have built both ways using a Win7 X86 source
using Win7 WAIK installed to default location or disabling WAIK

Yes. I did that.

Did you already try in the cmd window:

dir C:\PROGRA~1\WI4A4E~1\

In my system I see contents.

Peter

[patsch]

yes, I see content ... but here is the fault

[pscEx]

We got it!

This file is also NOT in my WAIK!

It looks really like a bug of Leopard, but not (as we assumed before) based on the shortname of the WAIK directory.

Maybe Leopard assumes some WAIK folder structure which is not valid for every WAIK version ...

I have installed KB3AIK_DE.iso
http://www.microsoft...;displaylang=de

[pscEx]

I have Windows Automated Installation Kit (Windows AIK) 1.1.
(I use it because for me that seems to be the only AIK where imagex expands a WIM in time of a finger snip.)

So very different!

@Max! Maybe there is only a typo / copy error in your new project!
At least the issue is solvable

My fault was that I did not read all previous posts careful enough. Here I only wanted to solve the "Short name" issue (And it is solved and leads to the bug you reported ...)
@Patsch: Maybe you also did not read all posts careful enough ...

I understand: Maybe better next time not to try to help using the contents of ONE trouble reporting post. ...

hi every one
can any one re uploud part5 plz

Hi Hima,

rapid link, as well as mediafire links contain initial project (v1)

winbuilder server also available (written on first post), which in addition to v1 provides updated scripts.

My advice to you is:
extract files up to part5 to a folder,
than follow the instruction to download rest.

How to download or update Leopard with WinBuilder: Check pictures: Step 1 + Step 2

@Rest
do not forget to update your scripts from leopard wb server if you do not want to spend time on fixing issues which are already fixed.

Hi Lancelot


i downloaded 4 parts and i cant to download part number 5

My advice to you is:
extract files up to part5 to a folder,
than follow the instruction to download rest.

Excellent idea

thanks to your advice

i will do it

thank you

Hello..
Win7 x86 and a Win7 x64 build went well, if WAIK is Disabled

With a Win7 x64 build using WAIK v1.0 for Win7PE
WAIK path is not correct

Message: The M$ Windows 7 WAIK v1.0 “winpe.wim” file not found at the “C:\Program files\Windows AIK7\tools\PETools\AMD64” directory !!!


the MultiPE Leopard CAPI script line 97 has
%Waik7_Path%=C:\Program Files\Windows AIK7\

Should be C:\Program Files\Windows AIK

i think????

[paraglider]

Also iso file does not boot if building from win7 source and boot manager is set to standard. Had to change to -boot-load-size 8 instead of -boot-load-size 4 on the mkisofs command line.

Hi PaPeuser

My script.project :

Hi paraglider

I'm thank you very much for your tip.
I will publish this weekend the necessary hotfix with SP1 of the project.

Best regards

[patsch]

I will publish this weekend the necessary hotfix with SP1 of the project.

It is possible to add some grub4dos features as well?
Means like the colors of the text mode, timer (yes or no and if yes how long)
Problem for me is that your 7 - Create ISO/USB-HDD script is the most complicated one that I have seen for the win7-projects and for me as a bad programmer it is hard to add some features ... my previous changes I always made for all other win7-projects will not work in your project ...

Next thing I would ask: is it possible to add directx9-files to the directx script? there are several test progs that need dx9 (like occt (http://www.ocbase.com/perestroika_en/) ) and it would be absolutely fantastic to have such tools in my build. If it is not poosible please tell then I will have to look for other solutions.
