Re: [wpkg-users] Firefox 8 and extension deployment
Did you extract the extension first? Some of them need that to work.
Are you using a 64-bit OS? You'll need to adjust paths. I'm using the

Re: [wpkg-users] Delayed sevice start
WPKG Client has a few settings you might try. I haven't experimented with logon delay, but it's there under Logon Settings / Execution mode. In my environment we had some new PCs that were too fast and the network wasn't ready by the time WPKG started, so it would fail. We set Misc settings / WPKG execution on failure / Repeat count to 3 and it retries 3 times, which is long enough for the network to be ready. You could probably set it much higher to keep it retrying for a while. On Tue, Nov 22, 2011 at 9:32 AM, Alan Adams a...@adamshome.org.uk wrote: Is there a way to delay the start of the wpkg service? I have two reasons for wanting to do this. First when using WindowsXP Home on laptops, the wireless network doesn't start until after login, so the wpkg service has run and given up before the network appears. For this situation, wpkg needs to start after login has completed. Secondly with a classroom of 30 wireless laptops starting up, wpkg is using so much aggregate bandwidth dragging down large msi's (e.g. Adobe Reader) that logging in can take up to half an hour. In this case delay after login would work, or delay after startup. For the former case I have had to resort to a scheduled task running every 15 minutes doing net stop and net start on the service. There doesn't seem to be an option to run once some period after login, but it can be set to run periodically starting at login. 15 minutes was chosen to reduce the risk of stopping wpkg while it was doing an installation, against the risk of the laptop being shut down before it had started - many lessons are only 15 minutes long. -- Alan Adams, from Northamptonshire a...@adamshome.org.uk http://www.nckc.org.uk/ - 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 - 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

Re: [wpkg-users] Thunderbird extensions
Now that you mention Firefox extensions, I do recall having to add a step since FF4. You can see it in more detail at the wiki page for Firefox.

I am currently installing AddBlockPlus by copying the XPI file to the extensions folder, that's all. You should check if this can be done with the other add-on too.

It seems a bit complicated, but in fact it's easy: for each new firefox/thunderbird extension you only need a one liner xml and have to insert two variables for the extension name and key: http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads#packages.2Ffirefox-ext-skel.xml IMHO same system (using: http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads#packages.2Fmozilla.2Finstall-extensions.cmd ) should work with thunderbird, too. Just replace install-extensions.cmd Firefox %FXEXT% to install-extensions.cmd Thunderbird %FXEXT% in http://wpkg.org/Firefox_ext_install_downloads#templates.2Fff-extension.xml As soon as I have some time I'll rework these pages/packages for FF 5 and make some for TB.

Re: [wpkg-users] wpkg upgrade firefox 3.6 to 4.0.1
I had no problems installing 4 over 3.6 here. On Tue, May 10, 2011 at 11:14 AM, Donny Brooks dbro...@mdah.state.ms.us wrote: Hello all, I currently am pushing out firefox 3.6 series to my clients via wpkg. We have tested firefox 4.0.1 and it seems to work well enough to go live to the end users. My question is this: Since they already have the 3.6 series how would I go about installing the 4.0.1 without them losing any of their bookmarks and such? Would I simply change the firefox.xml script to point to the new 4.0.1 installer instead of the 3.6 series? I could setup a test machine to try it on but that will be a few days before I can get to it and figured someone on here may have already done it. Thanks in advance.

I hadn't considered the possibility of using multiple repositories in this way. Sounds like a good idea. I do a similar but simpler approach. I have one machine with WPKG Client pulling from \\server\WPKG-test. I make changes to the XML files in that folder and when I'm confident they are ready then I copy them over to \\server\WPKG. It's handy to be able to run a diff between the directories to see your exact changes too. - 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
