DUTCH AutoPatcher XP Oktober 2005

[DaFlapDrol]

Hey, the MSN-problem occurs randomly at different PC's here with AutoPatcher. At neither of them I installed the patch of the Win2000 wachtwoordenbeheer :s

BTW, I use this command to install AutoPatcher:

"C:\Program Files\AutoPatcher\AutoPatcher.exe" /skipreboot /defaults:C:\Program Files\AutoPatcher\Answers.ini

Works like a charm (ofcourse AFTER putting my answers.ini in the right directory ;) )

Well, about the command that and the parameters that you used, read more information here at this topic. The result is that your system did a reboot.

wrong

/skipreboot

good

/noreboot

About the MSN Messenger troubles I can't simulate these. Not on XP Home or XP Professional :wacko:

Installed it know a few times without any problems. I will do more tests to see when, what and why.........( I'm using a clean image, maybe that's why I don't have the problems) we'll see......

Thanks for your post!!

A question for the Dutch users!

What do you all think that I should do with the Framework Release 2.0? I could include it in the next release. The only thing is, it's English. That means that all items presented in our language (dutch) will be replaced with the English language.

If only a few people would say include it, then I'll get my doubts about it. So, shoot!!!

[andreasfc]

I think you could include it and make it selectable, so everyone van choose wheter to install or not.

[flupke2]

Every update is selectable in AutoPatcher, isn't it?

I would also like to see .NET Framework 2.0.

Can you include Media Center Update Rollup 2 and the extra fix for it as well?

For those who have just "tuned in" my former questions started in another (incorrect) topic

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...#entry586828281

, but continue overhere at the request of DaFlapDrol.

Before you installed the "new" version of AutoPatcher, did you removed the older version first?

AutoPatcher was installed for the very first time. Normally I'm not so keen on installing complete 'packs', but now - after it became necessary to install WinXP again; had to much blue screens - I thought "well, lets give AutoPatcher a try". Therefore there was not anything to be removed first.

What OS do you have (pro/home retail or oem)?

Installed OS is WinXP Pro, version 2002 and naturally with Service Pack 2.

I would also like to see .NET Framework 2.0. --> added

Can you include Media Center Update Rollup 2 and the extra fix for it as well? --> I could add the Media Center Update Rollup 2 and the extra fix, unfortunately I can't test this and therefore won't inluded it.

When do you get the error 'that you don't have enough rights"? Is that during the installation with AutoPatcher?

Nope. After running AutoPatcher found out, that MSN wasn't upgraded to v7.5. Did not bother to look for the reason why at that time. Downloading the dutch MSN-file seperately is quick and installing is easy to do, is it not?

So after the many many perfectly installed upgrades, I downloaded the MSN-file (Install_MSN_Messenger.EXE; the 75b306NL-version). But after just a few seconds of executing a pop-up appears telling me I do not have the proper rights for this kind of action and I should contact the administrator (FYI. The same message appeared after I tried the Dutch 311-build).

Did not give up so easely. Downloaded again the MSN-file, but this time the UK-version. This one was accepted immidiately. No problems what so ever. Nor with the 306, nor with the 311 UK build. Strange, n'est-ce pas?

So I de-installed MSN completely from mu system and had another shot with the 306 NL build. "Helaas pindakaas", again the know pop-up appeared again (not the proper rights).

[...have shorten your story.....]

The problem is possible the BOOTSTRAP.EXE it's included in the file Install_MSN_Messenger.EXE

What you can try is this:

Download the MSN Messenger here

After downloading, go to the folder where you saved the file, make a batchfile with the command as shown below:

INSTALL_MSN_MESSENGER.exe /C /T:%temp%\msn75

Run the batchfile (will be a second or three)

Then acces the folder that was created. It could be something like this one, depending on the username "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\msn75" you'll find there two files. Delete the BOOTSTRAP.EXE and start msnmsgs.msi by double click it with your mouse-pointer ;)

Be sure that the MSN messenger is not running, a lot of people have configured it to start at Windows startup or at the "sign-on" option. :yes:

:D :p :D DaFlapDrol, your 'solution worked!! Great :D :p :D

Had to make a minor adjustment for this result. Followed the link you suggested. The Dutch MSN started to download after telling I'm a registered user. But ... installing? Now way. Pop-up appeared with next (Dutch) error message: "De installatie van MSN Messenger is mislukt met foutcode: 1638. Ga naar website van MSN Messenger http:// mesenger.msn.com en download de laatste versie van MSN Messenger." :angry:

Tried something different. Googled and located at http://www.coolenaam.nl/msn7.php the "MSN Messenger 7.5 Officiele versie!" :happy:

Ran the batchfile, looked for the Temp-directory and deleted BOOTSTRAP.EXE. After selecting msnmsgs.msi I chose "Repair". E voila, got the dutch MSN 7.5 b311 version. :woot: :woot: Checked it once again by selecting i.e. several things under "Help". At first there were some script errors, but by ignoring them they stayed away later on. :cool: :cool:

So many thanks DaFlapDrol :D :rofl: :D

In the next days I will give the new November edition of AutoPatcher a try, that is when the Dutch version is available. I promise to get back and report (hopefully) the good news of 'no problems'. Will do that btw in the proper topic. Signing out. :laugh:

Glad that is solved your problem with the MSN installation issue. In the next release it will be solved!!

At this moment the november release of the Dutch version of the full and lite version are not released yet.

That's not too bad, because we have the october release, no? What a pity though this is nowhere to be found for downloading. Not on the links provided on this topic. Not on any torrent website.

Can anybody find it somewhere and post the link here?
