Dear members,

everytime I want to build via vers. 078 SP6 I get an error:

FileCopy - Failed to copy [%BaseDir%\Temp\VistaPE-CAPI\BootWimSrc\windows\de-DE\regedit.exe.mui] to: [%BaseDir%\Target\VistaPE-CAPI\windows\de-DE\regedit.exe.mui]: Der Verzeichnisname ist ungültig.

Means that the name of the directory is not valid.

It's a German VISTA source and I want to build under XP SP3.. WAIK is installed..

Do you have a hint for sovlving the problem? Thank you.

The reason is easy:
You want to copy into
%BaseDir%\Target\VistaPE-CAPI\windows\de-DE
But that directory is never created before.

Unfortunatelly the log does not tell me about 'non - runned' scripts which create that directory.

There you have to look inside your project. Maybe in one script there is a 'create' unchecked, or a script creating this directory is unchecked, or ...

Peter

BTW WB078 SP6 only? What is with WB078 RC2?

Hello
I see your source directory as
F:\Vista Enterprise SP1

Just and idea
Could you move F:\Vista Enterprise SP1
To C: and remove spaces
Like
C:\VistaSP1

Some times with some projects, drive letters and spaces are important.
But it copied all other files ok ;) ;)
So I am not sure maybe an expert could help :lol: ;)

@ psc does winbuilder like F: drive to be use as source?

Hi Peter,

I'll try it with the new version first before I search inside a script for the problem. I'´ll let you know what happens.. thank you.

You gave me some help in the older BartPe days.. I remember you well :lol:

Nice to hear :lol:
But sorry, I cannot remember ... My age.
Has it been in Reatogo?

Peter

BTW: RC2 is the OLDER version, but maybe there appeared a bug in between!

Yes, Reatogo.. my Username was just Bernhard.. but one day a fight was starting between Siegfried und the guy from UBCD.. that was not nice anymore so I quit the 911 not to read the bashings anymore.. don't know what the reason was ;)

Nice to see you back here!

But this forum is also no fight - free. Sometimes I have had strong (we now call it boxing) fights with my friend Lancelot.

But that makes live interesting ...

Feel here to be at home, like me and many other members!

I think it is time to write someting about spaces again:
Since I'm writing WinBuilder code, I am sure I hope that there is NO 'space in the path' issue.
Intentionally in my development area ALL OF MY PATHES:
  • Have a space inside
  • Are not on C:
The 'Avoid space' suggestion comes from WB version 052 or earlier, where this sometimes has been an issue.

If somebody has an issue which is caused by a space in any part, please post.

@PaPeuser and @All:
Do not look at spaces first, when you are trying to explain a buggy behaviour.

Thanks!

Peter ;)

Thank you Peter for all your good words.. yes sometimes boxing will sort out problems.. but I'm a very bad boxer :lol:

I have to go now and tomorrow I'll try it again with the version you've pointed me to.

i think it is a bug in the latest \Base\04-additional.script Version=23
in older verions of this script there were a line in the [process] section:
Run,%ScriptFile%,Folder
before the line: Run,%ScriptFile%,AddFilesLocale

@psc
Please read this post - Drive letter problems

I have read!
What I wanted to say is:
Such issues are usually NOT caused by "WinBuilder has troubles with spaces in path", but from 'how a script handles them' (and the script should be changed, perhaps by adding just two quotes)
And as explained in my post above:
If you have issues related to path, please post.
If in the above case you change the path to something "w/o spaces and to ASCII only chars" it may help you in your special case, but it will not help the development team to catch the bug.

Hi Bernhard-BL

It is a typo psc frequently make these days

What is with WB078 RC2?

the correct version is WB077 RC2
besides, as a new user you can not use WB077 RC2 quickly on VistaPE-Capi because VistaPE-Capi project requires minimum wb078sp4.

Further:
dera found the issue on script and new script uploaded to VistaPE-Capi server.
Make your updates (download new scripts from server) and lets wait good news from you. :lol:

ps: ehm, use wb078sp4 or other versions than wb078sp6 to download new scripts, wb078sp6 may fail to download updated scripts. ;)

nope, bug reported for wb078sp6 and fixed for next version. Bug ID 238. Since end-users tend to use latest versions, I think it would be better to warn before suggesting downloading updates. Maybe I am missing something ?
