Of course I was *not* looking in the right place ;-).  Thank you very 
much for pointing this out.  Now I have the logfile and the desired 
informations.

Maybe some explanations on http://wpkg.org/ (e.g. 
http://wpkg.org/Debugging?), explaining the logfile/event viewer logging 
differences and such pitfalls like the various %TEMP% locations could 
help clarifying that for other users, too.

I'll do so.


Thanks again
