CAB File Problem(?)


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have written an .inf file to install my tweaks automatically (ask me if it is linked to my post on IPSM file extract!), but for some reason it won't work! I have cut it down to a test version that would only copy 1 file and change 2 reg settings. Can someone please help me out?

PS: If you test it with cabwizsp.exe, you will need madu.txt file :lol:

[Version]Signature = "$Windows NT$"

Provider = "madu"

CESignature = "$Windows CE$"

[CEStrings]

AppName = "TEST"

[CEDevice.ARM720]

ProcessorType = 0

[DefaultInstall]

CopyFiles = InstallDir1

AddReg = RegSettings.ALL

[sourceDisksNames]

1 = ,"Common files",,

[sourceDisksFiles]

madu.txt = 1

[DestinationDirs]

InstallDir1 = 0,%CE18%Skins

[installDir1]

madu.txt,madu.txt

[RegSettings.ALL]

HKCU,ControlPanelAccessibility,CharTimeout,,350

HKCU,ControlPanelAccessibility,HoldTimeOut,,500

I've made a few homescreens using cab files but am no expert, should the following:

[installDir1] 

madu.txt,madu.txt

be:

[installDir1]

madu.txt,"madu.txt"

Really?! I'm sure that Midnight's CAB file that taught me to make CAB's along with the MSDN pages said that?

Actually, just checked mine, you need the speech marks the other way around!

[installDir1]

"madu.txt",madu.txt

that INF looks fine to me, what are the command line params you are using?

in fact, forget that, just drag the inf file over cabwizsp.exe and let it create the cab that way (quickest way)

Agreed, it is being created, but it won't install...

Mid, see above, just using the default line "CABWIZSP.EXE TEST.INF" from command prompt

Madu, i think its your reg settings, they should read:

HKCU,ControlPanelAccessibility,CharTimeout,0x00010001,350 


HKCU,ControlPanelAccessibility,HoldTimeOut,0x00010001,500

Damn! Still no luck :lol:

I made some cabs before and just can't understand why this one won't work
