Topic: Trouble integrating MassStorage drivers 704 or 705 into Server 2003

Dear all,

I'm using MassStorage and LAN Driver packet successfully with Windows XP SP2 German and XP SP2 English MUI. The operating systems are deployed by Windows Server 2003 SP2 RIS/WDS. Everything works fine so far.
Now I want to add a new image containing Windows Server 2003 Enterprise english. When I now try to slipstream MassStorage packet 704 or 705 with the appropriate Base packet, I get the following error:

My config looks like this:

[General]
; preferred language
prefLang	= "English"
; yes/no, enable or disable the wizard-style buttons, if not specified: yes
wizardButtons	= "yes"
; yes/no, enable or disable the GUI, if not specified: yes
GUI		= "yes"


[Settings]
; disc/bartpe/multibootDisc
instPlatform	= "disc"
; trailing backslash is allowed, but not necessary
location	= "D:\Download RIS\Backup_temp"
; none/all/select, if select, specify them below, if not specified: all
DriverPacks	= "select"
; 1/2, method to install the DriverPacks, if not specified: 2
DPsMethod	= "2"
; GUIRunOnce/RunOnceEx/custom, if not specified: GUIRunOnce
finisherMethod	= "GUIRunOnce"


; this section is optional!
[OptionalSettings]
; none/all/select/paths/patterns, enable or disable Keep The Drivers (KTD) , if not specified: none
KTD		= "false"
; <path>, to specify a custom KTD cache location, if not specified: default (%SystemRoot%\DriverPacks)
KTDlocation	= "%SystemRoot%\DriverPacks"
; yes/no, enable or disable QuickStream Cache (QSC), if not specified: yes
QSC		= "no"


; you should only add this section if you've set [Settings]\DriverPacks to "select"
[SelectDriverPacks]
DP_LAN		= "no"
DP_MassStorage	= "yes"
DP_MassStorage_textmode = "yes"

The problem occurs even when I use method 1. It is not affected by fs permissions. Does anybody have similar problems?

Thanks ahead,
Elix

Re: Trouble integrating MassStorage drivers 704 or 705 into Server 2003

I have not heard of anyone else with this issue.

Is D: a mapped drive letter? 
(ususally D is a CD ROM but certainly you didn't try to write it to a WORM device)
(try it on a local copy if so and then move it to the server after successful completeion)

Re: Trouble integrating MassStorage drivers 704 or 705 into Server 2003

Hi OverFlow,

D: is not a mapped drive letter. It is a local drive letter. It is also not a problem of wrong filesystem permissions.

I'm wondering about the blank behind the filename and before extension. Is this an error during log output?

Thanks, Elix

Re: Trouble integrating MassStorage drivers 704 or 705 into Server 2003

did you try without a space in  it ?

D:\Download RIS\ becomes  D:\DownloadRIS\

And doesnt this belong in the masstorage part of the board?

Re: Trouble integrating MassStorage drivers 704 or 705 into Server 2003

Hi Muiz,

it's nothing I could change. I'm talking about the log output, e.g. the following line:

2007-05-16 12:30:23 : <CRIT> Failed to CAB compress D:\Download RIS\Backup_temp\I386\dpti2o .sys to D:\Download RIS\Backup_temp\I386\dpti2o .sy_.

You see the blank in dpti2o .sys?

BR, Elix
