The WPKG client is not usable on Windows Vista and
above, since it will be terminated before it ends its
tasks.<br>
<br>
WPKG-GP is one way to solve this, another is to use a
scheduled task that updates the system at night and
shuts it down after WPKG has finished.<br>

<div class="gmail_extra">On my Windows 7 clients I used to run a
startup/shutdown script with 'cscript \\server\wpkg.js
/synchronize /quiet /nonotify'. This works well but it doesn't
give the users any notification on what's happening. With
small updates/installs this is fine but I'd find they'd force
shutdown for large installs because they thought the machine
was hanging.</div>

we're running <span
style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""
lang="EN-US">WPKG Client 1.3.14-x64.msi across 200+ Windows 7 x64
clients perfectly well, so it does run.<br>
I've experimented with WPKG-GP but WPKG seems to be working for us
at present<br>
we have:<br>
<param name='log_file_path' value='%SystemDrive%' /><br>
so the logfile gets created at the root of C:\<br>
and then we have something in the login script that copies that
file to a shared folder on the server so we can run some checks
across it.<br>
sometimes the file is copied up before WPKG has finished working,
but most times it's working OK.<br>
<br>
Stefan Koch - you will not see anything happening, that is by
design.<br>
by default & by design the client runs as a service under the
SYSTEM account, checks in with the file structure on your server
where all the scripts and packages are, and does all it's work,
then goes to sleep.<br>
it starts every time the system boots (you will see the service is
set to Automatic Start)<br>
if you're not sure it's working then have a look in the event log
and or whatever you've set the log file to.<br>
<br>
If you want to test it without rebooting, then stop/start the
service & inspect the log file each time.<br>
Note that after the service starts, it seems to wait a while (up
to a minute?) before it does anything, so keep an eye on the log
file / event log<br>
