RE: Can DIFxApp install network protocols?
Posted by Kevin K on June 28th, 2004


For some reason I had to set the merge module directory to that of the .inf file and then DIFxApp gave me no more errors but I still have an issue. Just like DPInst I get a success message but the protocol is not installed. It does get copied to the driver store but that is all that happens. Does anyone know how I can complete the installation? We would really like to get this sniffer driver deployed at a coporate level.

Hi Kevin,

2 ideas based on the error messages that you appended:

[SourceDisksFilesSection]. Take a look at this section in your INF and make
sure that sniffer.sys is listed there.

Error 0x800B0100 implies an unsigned driver. Is your driver properly signed?
The tools only work with signed drivers (can be authenticode signed, or
testsigned if you are part of the WHQL program. Also, the released version
of the tools allow the installation of unsigned drivers if the OS is booted
in debug mode and a proper environment variable is defined. The doc that is
provided with the tools have more details on this).

It is hard to say for sure what the exact problem is without taking a look
at the driver package.

anyone knows if DIFx app will support the install I am trying to perform?
ExecuteImediateSequence. Below is the MSI log of the failed install using
DIFxApp in case someone wants to throw me a suggestion.
