I am having problems with an xml provisioning script.
IE and XML notebook displays this ok, so I assume all tags line up, however when checking out in Dotfred task mgr get a mis formed file.
I had a working script (in Dotfred) and added the last 2 \makdir sections and now does not work. Interesting if I delete out these 2 sections still no longer works in Dotfred (but displays ok in IE)
Any help/suggestions appreciated

Nicely done Jimm98y, i dont have a green icon but it worked on my device. My only tip would be on the greenbatteryfix.cab installer to give no option to install on device or storage card - just install straight to windows with no dialog. Cheers
yes, I know what you mean but I don't know how to make it. But if you choose storage or storage card, the fix is always installed in windows folder...

I just put together this xml for a cab for a gx.dll fix. It gives no prompt destination dialog if that helps to modify yours.
<wap-provisioningdoc>

<parm name="AppName" value="gx dll fix" />
<parm name="NumDirs" value="1" />

yes, it works, thanks very much, I use it in new version of this fix. And does anybody know how to import the cab with certificate into the cab with fix?

I would at first try it like this
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Install">
<parm name="InstallPhase" value="install" />
<parm name="AppName" value="gx dll fix" />
<parm name="NumDirs" value="1" />
<parm name="NumFiles" value="2" />
<parm name="NumRegKeys" value="0" />
<parm name="NumRegVals" value="0" />
<parm name="NumShortcuts" value="0" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="%CE2%" translation="install">
<characteristic type="MakeDir" />
<characteristic type="gx.dll" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Extract">
<parm name="Source" value="gx.dll" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="sdkcerts.cab" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Extract">
<parm name="Source" value="sdkcerts.cab" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="Registry">
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
obviously ignore gx.dll bit, just add sdkcerts.cab section and change value of numfiles at top to '2'
Actually that may not work, but his may - diff order.
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="%CE2%" translation="install">
<characteristic type="MakeDir" />
<characteristic type="sdkcerts.cab" translation="install">

</characteristic>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="gx.dll" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Extract">
<parm name="Source" value="gx.dll" />
sdkcerts.cab should be first to install! lol
yes, it could work, but I use cabwiz.exe to make a cab, how it looks in *.inf file? Or If I use the xml file, how can I compile it into the cab?

Hi all,
I was trying to create a provxml file to automatically create a shortcut in
the "Start Menu" folder.
this is the sintax I was using:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="%CE17%" translation="install">
<characteristic type="MakeDir" />
<characteristic type="Reset.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Shortcut">
<parm name="Source" value="\location\my_file.exe /parameter" translation="install" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
but always the .lnk file receives this value :
(quotes are included in value and slash is converted in backslash)
"\location\my_file.exe \parameter"
can someone help me to obtain : \location\my_file.exe /parameter?
thanks for reading J.
might as well create the link in correct form and use provxml to copy the link to the location you want. much simpler.
try removing 'translation="install" ' from the line with the parameter.

tried too... maybe my example files have some syntax errors inside
I always get failure to execute the provxml.
@ joemanb : I'll try
Thank you all
What about this?

Maybe the problem is caused by security?

Must be security, I've tried to copy to "\" and to "\windows" and worked like
a charm. Not in "%CE17%".
Thank J.
Edit: Phone user shoud be an authenticated user..?!?
Edit 2: Ok DONE! Thank you all guys, I love this forum.

More importantly, I want to create a shortcut WITH PARAMETERS.
I need the full list of shortcut properties to be at my disposal, including optional parameters as well as icon selection. The end result needs to be a LNK file with that shortcut in it.
Does anyone know? I'm having a really difficult time finding a one-stop location for a comprehensive list of provisional XML installation commands.
edit-
I should add that I went to Development Resources thread and downloaded the spreadsheet. I did a global find for the term XML in the spreadsheet and got no results. That's when I started this thread because I honestly have no idea where else to look. :\

Yeah, that one I know. But I don't know how to create the shortcut with parameters such as command-line arguments.
"\Windows\Jbed.exe" -manage
How would I create a shortcut to that, for example? Do I just use double-double quotes (like in the case of REG files)? So it looks like this:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="%CE4%\Jbed.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Shortcut">
<parm name="Source" value="""%CE2%\Jbed.exe"" -manage" translation="install" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
I've tried that and it didn't work. Is there an escape character that I should be using?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb737563.aspx
There isn't anything that explicitly confirms or denies that you'll be able to accomplish what you've asked, so working through examples is the best path.
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="%CE4%\Jbed.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Shortcut">
<parm name="Source" value=""%CE2%\Jbed.exe" -manage" translation="install" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
One alternative is to create the link yourself and then copy the file.

There are some incorrect functions in your XML.
Try this:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="FileOperation">
<characteristic type="\My Documents\My Ringtones\Ring-Vision.wma" translation="install" />
<characteristic type="Copy">
<parm name="Source" value="\Windows\Ring-Vision.wma" translation="install" />

</characteristic>
<characteristic type="\My Documents\My Ringtones\relaXation.wav" translation="install" />
<characteristic type="Copy">
<parm name="Source" value="\Windows\relaXation.wav" translation="install" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
OK i will try it. I see now that /> where missing. Thanks...
Use mortscript, it's so much easier its scary
Code:
Copy("Windows\Ring-Vision.wma","My Documents\My Ringtones\Ring-Vision.wma")
Copy("Windows\relaXation.wav","Windows\relaXation.wav")
And you're done Oh and if you want it to run on first boot then just add:
Code:
EXEC:\WINDOWS\Mortscriptname.mscr
To an add2config.txt file
