| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''Changelog''
| |
| − | * We changed the name to "WPKG Client". This name is more descriptive.
| |
| − | * Rebooting should finally work.
| |
| − | ** Still, a change in wpkg.js is needed: wpkg.js needs to end with exit code 3010 - WPKG Client will reboot in that case.
| |
| − | ** We don't wan't to reboot indefinitely if system administrator made an error - WPKG Client will reboot the machine only five times in a row; if wpkg.js still ends with exit code 3010, we won't reboot for the sixth time. To reset the counter, wpkg.js needs to exit with exit code different than 3010.
| |
| − | * WPKG Client should install and work with Vista (logon delay is not supported though).
| |
| − | * WPKG service can be now disabled when everything is done (switch available in GUI).
| |
| − | * Settings can be imported from GUI and from command line.
| |
| − | * Added WPKG icons and logos - big thanks to Eric Le Henaff.
| |
| − | * Event Log entries get a proper description (Error, Info etc.).
| |
| − | * Some minor changes in the GUI.
| |
| − | * Minor fixes and cleanups.

| |
| − | ''Upgrading instructions''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | If you're upgrading from an older version, you have to add SETTINGSFILE pointing to a proper settings.xml file.
| |
| − | Future releases will be able to upgrade without settings.xml file (will use current settings).
| |
| − | As always with rc- releases, take extra care before deploying it on important machines.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ''TODO before releasing WPKG Client 1.0 ("final")''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Modify wpkg.js so that it exits with code 3010 when reboot is needed. Sample patches are of course welcome.
| |
| − | * Right now, "Help..." button in WPKG Client doesn't display any useful info. This should be fixed before the final release. If you can, please help finishing this information - it's located on http://wpkg.org/index.php/WPKG_Client_-_GUI_help

| − | WPKG 0.9.9 has been released.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | WPKG-0.9.9-test3 released as 0.9.9 (stable) - no changes.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Packages, profiles and hosts can be defined in separate files.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Previously wpkg.js was looking for three files: packages.xml,
| |
| − | profiles.xml and hosts.xml, in the same directory where wpkg.js was itself.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Now, additionally, it looks into three folders (if they exist):
| |
| − | packages, profiles, hosts.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In each of these folders you can specify packages, profiles and hosts
| |
| − | definitions, in separate files.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | For example, you can place several config files into "hosts" directory:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | room1.xml, room2.xml
| |
| − |
| |
| − | in each of them you would define hosts that you have in each room.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Similarly, you can do for profiles, in "profiles" directory.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | For packages, you can define them in separate file in "packages" directory:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | firefox.xml, thunderbird.xml
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This way we achieve:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | 1) easier administration, especially if you have more packages<br>
| |
| − | 2) you can move package definitions from one server to another - just
| |
| − | copy the xml file for a given package (i.e. firefox.xml) to another
| |
| − | server - provided you use variables, and start WPKG similar to the way
| |
| − | below:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | set WPKGROOT=\\server\wpkg
| |
| − | set SOFTWARE=%WPKGROOT%\software
| |
| − | %WPKGROOT%\wpkg.js /synchronize /quiet /nonotify
| |
| − |
| |
| − | You will find some examples in the download package.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | V 0.8-test1
| |
| − |
| |
| − | wpkg.js changes after 0.7-test1:
| |
| − | * new functionality: you can execute scripts/programs once - useful for the tasks you want to do one time only, like disk defragmenting, some testing, changing printers etc.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <package execute="once">
| |
| − |
| |
| − | After that, this task will be added to wpkg.xml, and will not be executed again.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * hostname case is now ignored, you can use upper and lower case and it will work
| |
| − | * WPKG will now tell you if the syntax of XML files is not correct (which line, etc.)
| |
| − | * new flags:
| |
| − | /debug or /verbose - print everything WPKG does, useful for packet installation debugging (and for new users which need to understand how WPKG works)

| |
| − |
| |
| − | V 0.7-test1
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | wpkg.js changes after 0.6:
| |
| − | * regular expression support in hosts.xml!
| |
| − | You can view the exact syntax on this page:
| |
| − | [http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/jscript7/html/jsjsgrpregexpsyntax.asp http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/jscript7/html/jsjsgrpregexpsyntax.asp]
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Quick examples:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <host name="b[0-9]+" profile-id="profile" />
| |
| − |
| |
| − | works for: b1, b10, b100
| |
| − | does not work for: bubu, b, x, x1, x10, x100
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <host name=".+" profile-id="profile" />
| |
| − |
| |
| − | works for *all* hosts - use with care (!), place at the bottom of hosts.xml
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <host name="b.+" profile-id="profile1" />
| |
| − |
| |
| − | works for "b10", "b11", "b12345" etc.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <host name="b.+" profile-id="profile2" />
| |
| − | <host name="bronek1" profile-id="profile1" />
| |
| − | <host name="bron.+" profile-id="profile3" />
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Normally, hosts are parsed from top to the bottom, except when the hostname is not a regular expression.
| |
| − | So host "bronek" will match "profile1", even though it also matches "b.+" and "bron.+" (which are regular expressions).
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * new flags:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | /force - Uses force when performing actions (ignores wpkg.xml).<br>
| |
| − | Handy when you're not sure if your system is "up to date" with the state described in hosts.xml, packages.xml and profiles.xml (i.e., when someone was adding / removing software by other means than WPKG).<br>
| |
| − | It will "scan" your system for all possible packages from packages.xml, and then, install and/or uninstall packages, according to profiles.xml / packages.xml / hosts.xml for a given host.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | /forceInstall - Forces installation over existing packages.<br>
| |
| − | The "install" command will be run, even if "check" conditions are met.
| |
| − | This can be useful to "repair" packages etc.

| |
| − |
| |
| − | WPKG 0.6-test1 has been released.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | It includes major changes over the latest stable version, including the possibility to check if something was installed in Windows Software Add/remove!
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Changes:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Wed Jun 8 2005
| |
| − |
| |
| − | V 0.6-test1
| |
| − |
| |
| − | wpkg.js changes:
| |
| − | * Added new check type - it checks if the program is in "Software Add/Remove"
| |
| − |
| |
| − | An example entry looks like below:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Filzip 3.02" />
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In the path="" field you just have to add a name which is in Windows Software Add/Remove - and that's it: you no longer have to figure out the registry entries and/or files!
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Of course you can still use "file" and "registry" check types, combine them all etc. (all of them have to be met to consider software installed; they will be checked also *after* installation due to the fact that some installers don't handle exit codes properly).
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Output during the installing looks like below:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Checking presence of Filzip 3.02; uninstall check condition failed !
| |
| − | Checking presence of Filzip 3.02; file check condition failed !
| |
| − | Checking presence of Filzip 3.02; registry check condition failed !
| |
| − | Installing Filzip 3.02...
| |
| − | Checking presence of Filzip 3.02; uninstall check condition met.
| |
| − | Checking presence of Filzip 3.02; file check condition failed !
| |
| − | Checking presence of Filzip 3.02; registry check condition met.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This can mean:
| |
| − | - the installation was unsuccessful (and the package won't be written to %SYSTEM32%\wpkg.xml) because the file check condition was not met,
| |
| − | - file check condition has a typo in packages.xml,
| |
| − | - you don't have to use that many conditions - one "uninstall" check is often enough.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Changed double quotations to single quotations in packages.xml. Some installation instruction may require using double quotations.

| |
| − | WPKG 0.5-test1 has been released.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Changes include:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | wpkg.js changes:
| |
| − | * Fixed registry checking.
| |
| − | * If there is no '<check type="...' entry for a given package, '<install cmd="...' will be executed each time the machine is booted. This is useful when one wants to execute certain scripts on each machine startup.
| |
| − | * If there is more than one '<check type="...' (that is, "file" and "registry"), both of them have to be met to assume the package is installed (before it was OR - so it was any of them).
| |
| − | * Added checking *after* installation, too. Some installers return exit code 0 (for example, SAS 9.1.3), even though the installation was unsuccessful. This prevents WPKG from writing such package to wpkg.xml in case it wasn't really installed.
| |
| − | * other changes:
| |
| − | - we have our own domain - wpkg.org :)
| |
| − | - the documentation - which is now on http://wpkg.org - has been greatly improved since the last WPKG release (most of you probably noticed that long time ago)
