Remove command is incorrect. Should be:
msiexec /qb /l* c:\netinst\logs\powertoy.log
/x{1CB92574-96F2-467B-B793-5CEB35C40C29}
You missed the /x. Review of the eventvwr usually helps with MSI
packages to see why they failed to install or uninstall.

Hi again,
this is what I have in packages.xml

reboot="false"
priority="100"
notify="false"
execute="always">
<!--

<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Image Resizer

<install
cmd="\\delchnpek-fs002\wpkg-1.0.2\software\powertoys\ImageResizerPowerto
ySetup.exe /S /v/qn" />
<remove cmd='msiexec /qb /l* c:\netinst\logs\powertoy.log

Hi Rainer,
thanks a lot man. You were absolutely right. It is working right now. I
create an imageresize.xml in the packages folder with that lines but I
didnt know I should modify the packages.xml .
So, the first file is not needed??
Thanks a lot

I create the variable SOFTWARE with the value path to software

coudl you give me any suggestion??
Sure, let's try to sort it out.
Successfully loaded XML file:
\\DELCHNPEK-FS002\WPKG-1.0.2\profiles.xml
Reading XML file:
//DELCHNPEK-FS002/WPKG-1.0.2/profiles/default.xml
So two profile definition files have been read. Probably
profiles.xml is just the sample one included. You might remove it.
Successfully loaded XML file:
\\DELCHNPEK-FS002\WPKG-1.0.2\hosts.xml
OK, it seems to use host.xml. No host definitions stored within
the hosts/ subdirectory.
Successfully loaded XML file:
\\DELCHNPEK-FS002\WPKG-1.0.2\packages.xml
Reading XML file:
//DELCHNPEK-FS002/WPKG-1.0.2/packages/imageresize.xml
Good, here it read pacakges.xml (probably just the sample file
included). You might remove it if you don't need the packages defined
there. Reading "imageresize.xml" seems to be fine too.
Profiles applying to the current host:
default
OK; the profile assigned (look at hosts.xml) ist "default".
Hosts file contains 1 hosts:
DELCHNPEK-WIT01
Just one host? Hmm, you might consider to use a regular
expression for productive use. Something like ".+" will match all hosts.
Settings file contains 0 packages:
This is correct - your local wpkg.xml has not been written yet.
Packages file contains 4 packages:
wpkg1
wpkg2
wpkg3
time
Looks a bit like the default list of packages. And here the
problem seems to be actually. The default "packages.xml" includes
exactly these 4 sample packages. It seems that either your
"imageresize.xml" does not contain any package - or you just copied an
entry and forgot to change the ID to "imageresize". Your package
definition within imageresize.xml should looks something like:
<packages>
<package
id="imageresize"
name="Image Resize"
revision="1"
reboot="false"
priority="100">
...
</package>
</packages>
Profile file contains 4 profiles:
default
custom
administration
other
Correct - and as seen above "default" is applied to the host.
Using profile(s):
default
Seems to be correct most probably.
Adding package with ID 'imageresize' to profile packages.
Profile inconsitency: Package with ID 'imageresize' is listed in
profile but doe
s not exist within the package database or the local settings
file. Please cont
act your system administrator!
As named above - WPKG did not find any package definition with
id="imageresize" in its header. Please verify your imageresize.xml
definition file.
Hope this helps and gives you some more background about how
WPKG works.
br,
Rainer
