Hello,
We currently package software using Tivoli (software package editor and autopack control center). When we perform snapshots with these tools, they pick up two entries "c:\winnt\?"... and of course those files don't exist, so we've always just pulled them out before building the software package block.
I'm trying to learn adminstudio's repackager and I am doing a multi-step snapshot... I perform the initial snapshot, install the application, then on the second snapshot it analyzes the system state changes, then it starts copying files to c:\packages... it goes all the way up to "c:\packages\windowsfolder\?" and gives me:
error copying file 'C:\PACKAGES\WINDOWSFOLDER\?'
Do you want to continue Y/N?
I answer Y, then it gives me:
Couldn't create temporary copy of 'C:\PACKAGES\WINDOWSFOLDER\?' Installation aborted.
All files following this don't get copied over... then it gives me the captured installation summary screen and *NOW* I can edit the captured files and registry entries to exclude those two '?' entries... but it's too late because it has already failed and any successive builds I do fail because all of the required files aren't there...
Thanks in advance,
Wayne
