Ok, I just tried installing WPKG Client 1.2-rc5 on a freshly installed Windows
2000 SP4 machine and .. it doesnt work. With the same settings it works just
fine on Windows XP SP2.

The details are the following:
- WPKG Client 1.2-rc5 is properly installed
- The service "WPKG Service" is there
- Prior to login the WPKG progress bar is shown
- In the event log i have the message "Der Dienst 'WPKG Service' wurde nicht
ordnungsgemäß gestartet."
- WPKGSrv.exe is running when i open the taskmanager
- "net stop wpkgservice" gives me "Die angeforderte Unterbrechung oder
Beendigung ist für diesen Dienst ungültig." -> net helpmsg 2191
- Checking the service manager shows me that "WPKG Service" is already running
but all the buttons including the "stop" button are disabled
- When I try to kill the WPKGSrv.exe using the taskmanager i get an "Access
denied" error


I then disabled the service and rebooted the machine. Added the -pre line
Thomas gave in #24 and started WPKGSrv.exe from commandline. And oh wonder, it
worked, instantly. After a reboot i tried it again, without the /debug switch
and got the following error in the eventlog:

"Die Beschreibung der Ereigniskennung (0) in (WpkgService) wurde nicht
gefunden. Der lokale Computer verfügt nicht über die zum Anzeigen der Meldungen
von einem Remotecomputer erforderlichen Registrierungsinformationen oder
DLL-Meldungsdateien. Ereignisinformationen: WpkgService error: 1063;
StartServiceCtrlDispatcher failed.."

Then i tried it with /debug again and guess what? It worked fine again and
installed the software it was supposed to install.
