And it will tell you where you made an error/typo.
== I'm getting a Scripting host error "Automation server can't create object" and then wpkg WPKG exits ==
One cause for this is missing the MSXML2.domdocument.3.0 object. This will occur on a fresh install of Windows 2000 with IE5. Installing IE6 will install the required component.
Installing new MDAC Components (MDAC_TYP.exe, at least 2.8 SP1) will do the job too.
== I'm getting an error "Event log file is full", and then WPKG exits ==
When you run WPKG as Administrator, it gives you an error, and doesn't run:
C:\>cscript \\server\wpkg\wpkg.js /synchronize /quiet /nonotify
\\server\wpkg\wpkg.js(2276, 5) (null): Event log file is full.
Users of German version of Windows will get "Die Ereignisprotokolldatei ist voll".
As the error say, your Event log is full. Either clean it, or don't log what WPKG does to the Event Log.
WPKG logs to the Event Log when /quiet flag is used. So, don't use this flag, and start WPKG like below:
cscript \\server\wpkg\wpkg.js /synchronize /quiet /nonotify >nil
== Your examples use a server with WPKG share accessible by everybody. My server is password protected or is a Domain Controller and I can't access it without first logging to it. How can I configure WPKG to access a username/password protected share? ==
