Hello everyone<br>
<br>
I have been trying to make WPKG work for a few days with no
luck. Below is what I have done so far, after following the
quick install quide in wiki.<br>
<br>
1. Created a shared folder called wpkg. The owner is
"Administrators", and both "Administrator" and "Everyone" have
read/write access to it.<br>
<br>
2. I copied all the XML files (hosts,packages,profiles, wpkg.js)
inside the shared "wpkg" folder. <br>
<br>
3. <br>
<br>
My <b>hosts </b>file looks like this:<b><br>
</b>--------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br>
<br>
<wpkg><br>
<br>
<host name="beftaki" profile-id="test" /><br>
<br>
</wpkg><br>
--------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
My <b>profiles</b> file:<br>
--------------------------------------------------<br>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><br>
<br>
<profiles><br>
<br>
<profile id="test"><br>
<package package-id="thunderbird" /><br>
</profile><br>
<br>
</profiles><br>
--------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
<br>
My <b>packages</b> file:<br>
<br>
I copied and pasted the thunderbird package from here (<a
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://wpkg.org/Thunderbird">http://wpkg.org/Thunderbird</a>)<br>
but I replaced<br>
<install cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\thunderbird\Thunderbird Setup
%version%.exe" -ms' /><br>
with<br>
<install cmd='"\\testserver1\wpkg\email\Thunderbird Setup
%version%.exe" -ms' /><br>
<br>
in order to tell wpkg where the executable is.<br>
<br>
<br>
4. The thunderbird executable is located inside the shared wpkg
folder:<br>
<br>
D:\wpkg\email\thunderbird setup 38.4.0<br>
<br>
<br>
5. Then moved into the client install section. Installed the
client on windows 7.<br>
Set the wpkg path to: \\testserver1\wpkg\wpkg.js, created an
account with access to the shared<br>
folder and then clicked on "test settings" and everything
was fine. No errors or failed messages. <br>
<br>
6. I then start the WPKG service and waited for the thunderbird
icon to appear on my desktop. Nothing. :(<br>
<br>
7. Here is my event log with errors about not finding my XML
files.<br>
<br>
<br>
