Hi, Tomasz Chmielewski wrote: Dennis Kuhlmeier schrieb: Via guest access or with a dedicated wpkg user? Via a dedicated user. Maybe that's a better idea anyway, but how do you do that? Tried this in my wpkg.cmd net use z: \\host\wpkg pass /user:username set WpkgRoot=Z: Please reply to the list as well. ooops, sorry. No, don't use a script for that. Just put user and a password in WPKG Client configuration to access that share (or try to use computer password) - and that's it. Well, I scripted it in the first place as I needed a way to determine whether a PC is in the office or elsewhere to prevent it from synchronizing if necessary. But maybe the WPKG Client has improved since then. Anyway I'm curious if there is a way to access a windows share via script like in the above example. Problem is, that didn't work, maybe because mapping network volumes isn't possible in boot up phase running as local machine. Regards, Dennis -- ..

[wpkg-users] [Bug 173] Allow the use of environment variables for checking file revisions
http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173 Rainer Meier r.me...@wpkg.org changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |RESOLVED CC||r.me...@wpkg.org Resolution||FIXED --- Comment #1 from Rainer Meier r.me...@wpkg.org 2009-09-21 19:34:55 --- Hi Stefan Sounds like a reasonable request. At the beginning I thought yes, of course, let's quickly do it. Unfortunately it became a bit more complex. Especially this requires on every revision number query to set the full package environment and restore it after evaluating it. To prevent this for packages where it is not needed (I think using environment variables in revision strings will not become very popular) I've added a quick check and variables will be expanded only if at least two % characters are found. Here is the change log: Changes 2009-09-21, v1.1.2-RC18 by Rainer Meier r.meier (at) wpkg.org MOD: Added check for package revision environment expansion. Expansion is only done if the revision string contains two % characters which indicates an environment definition in the form of %VAR%. This should prevent unneeded environment setups and therefore it prevents wasting resources. Changes 2009-09-21, v1.1.2-RC17 by Rainer Meier r.meier (at) wpkg.org NEW: Expands environment variables in package revision. For example revision=%PRG_VERSION% is valid now. Make sure the environment variable is defined before you use it. Fixes Bug 173. Thanks to Stefan Pendl.

Hi Rainer, as an example, see Notepad++, which includes the version number in the installer file name. This leads to changing the version number in up to four places, depending on your package definition. I do not only check for the uninstall entry, but for the correct main executable version too. I do support x86 and AMD64 platforms, so I need to change this in four places, twice for the file check and once each for the install and upgrade command.

Yes, I fully agree that your request is valid and improves WPKG, no doubt on this. That's why I've implemented it. Your example is absolutely correct too. However I still believe that not many users will use that feature in general so I intended to keep the performance penalty as low as possible and prevent unnecessary expansion if it's not needed. So thanks for the request. It would be nice to get some feedback about RC18 (I did not do a concrete test yet using a real-life package. br, Rainer - wpkg-users mailing list archives http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ ___ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users

Hi Tomasz, I have had those network issues with version 1.3.6 too, but it was all sorted with 1.3.8 and 1.3.9 It is not that I must be happy, it is just, that the 1.3.x release has so much advantages over the 1.2.1 release, that it should be the current version. OK, it is available as stable on the website now. Hopefully, it will save some confusion for new (and perhaps existing) users.

[wpkg-users] web frontend, url works but client does not read url
I have tested the url that fails from one of our linux servers with curl and it works fine (spits out the .xml file with all its info). But when the client attempts to read the url, it fails. config.xml: http://pastebin.ca/1574757 We do have a proxy enabled on our domain, is it possible the client is grabbing them and trying to access a local server through the proxy ?
