Remove command is incorrect. Should be: msiexec /qb /l* c:\netinst\logs\powertoy.log /x{1CB92574-96F2-467B-B793-5CEB35C40C29} You missed the /x. Review of the eventvwr usually helps with MSI packages to see why they failed to install or uninstall.

I remove the entry in profile.xml and profiles\default.xml but the software doesnt get uninstalled.... some help? thanks a lot man. jose 2008/5/20 Jose Cortijo <jose.cortijo at gmail.com>: Hi Rainer, thanks a lot man. You were absolutely right. It is working right now. I create an imageresize.xml in the packages folder with that lines but I didnt know I should modify the packages.xml . So, the first file is not needed?? Thanks a lot 2008/5/20 Rainer Meier <r.meier at wpkg.org>: Hi Jose, Jose Cortijo wrote: But before I tried to run it in my own computer from cmd. I get an error the wpkg database is empty It should be empty as far I didnt install any softwarre yet. I create the variable SOFTWARE with the value path to software folder in the server and run manually the script. coudl you give me any suggestion?? Sure, let's try to sort it out. Successfully loaded XML file: \\DELCHNPEK-FS002\WPKG-1.0.2\profiles.xml Reading XML file: //DELCHNPEK-FS002/WPKG-1.0.2/profiles/default.xml So two profile definition files have been read. Probably profiles.xml is just the sample one included. You might remove it. Successfully loaded XML file: \\DELCHNPEK-FS002\WPKG-1.0.2\hosts.xml OK, it seems to use host.xml. No host definitions stored within the hosts/ subdirectory. Successfully loaded XML file: \\DELCHNPEK-FS002\WPKG-1.0.2\packages.xml Reading XML file: //DELCHNPEK-FS002/WPKG-1.0.2/packages/imageresize.xml Good, here it read pacakges.xml (probably just the sample file included). You might remove it if you don't need the packages defined there. Reading "imageresize.xml" seems to be fine too. Profiles applying to the current host: default OK; the profile assigned (look at hosts.xml) ist "default". Hosts file contains 1 hosts: DELCHNPEK-WIT01 Just one host? Hmm, you might consider to use a regular expression for productive use. Something like ".+" will match all hosts. Settings file contains 0 packages: This is correct - your local wpkg.xml has not been written yet. Packages file contains 4 packages: wpkg1 wpkg2 wpkg3 time Looks a bit like the default list of packages. And here the problem seems to be actually. The default "packages.xml" includes exactly these 4 sample packages. It seems that either your "imageresize.xml" does not contain any package - or you just copied an entry and forgot to change the ID to "imageresize". Your package definition within imageresize.xml should looks something like: <packages> <package id="imageresize" name="Image Resize" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="100"> ... </package> </packages> Profile file contains 4 profiles: default custom administration other Correct - and as seen above "default" is applied to the host. Using profile(s): default Seems to be correct most probably. Adding package with ID 'imageresize' to profile packages. Profile inconsitency: Package with ID 'imageresize' is listed in profile but doe s not exist within the package database or the local settings file. Please cont act your system administrator! As named above - WPKG did not find any package definition with id="imageresize" in its header. Please verify your imageresize.xml definition file. Hope this helps and gives you some more background about how WPKG works. br, Rainer -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
