I have now installed as admin and added this to the parameter string " /log_file_path:c:\" - the FAQ is however also referring to adding this entry: <param name='log_file_path' value='\\\\server\\share\\dir' /> - what is the right one to use??
I still don't get the service to run properly - here's entries from eventlog WPKG Service trying start... WPKG Service->RegisterServiceCtrlHandler: successfuly done WPKG Service->SERVICE_START_PENDING: successfuly done Starting WPKG on startup Before create shared memory: successfuly done. Create shared memory: successfuly done. Set script security context: successfuly done. Starting script action execution Script action execution done. Script execution: failure. Exit code: 1 <--- *** this I don't like! Working done. Perform cleanup. Cleanup done.

Perhaps not everyone noticed, but we're not in times of ancient DOS and Windows 9x, where every user had full administrative privileges over the whole system. Just don't install any programs via logon script, that's not what it's for. Regular users SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO INSTALL APPLICATIONS. There may be some exemptions, i.e. home users which happen to be administrators, but to in schools, companies etc. - where WPKG is used. > LOGIN SCRIPT > ============ > ; > ; install wpkg as a service > ; > if not exist("c:\programmer\wpkg\wpkgsrv.exe") > MESSAGEBOX ("Installerer WPKG...", "Info", 0, 10) > SHELL "l:\wpkg-inst.bat" > SHUTDOWN ("","Genstart af PC nødvendig...", 5, 1) > endif > > ; Make sure latest settings.xml is in use at next boot > SHELL "c:\programmer\wpkg\wpkginst --SETTINGSFILE=l:\settings.xml" > > > Wpkg.inst-bat > ============= > echo Installing WPKG... > mkdir "c:\program files\wpkg" > nul: > COPY L:\wpkginst.exe "c:\program files\wpkg" > nul: > COPY L:\wpkglogon.dll "c:\program files\wpkg" > nul: > COPY L:\wpkgsrv.exe "c:\program files\wpkg" > nul: Where did you get that idea from? That you'd just copy executables and libraries, and it'd just work? It *might* work if you do some additional changes here and there, but certainly, it's not supported. > c:\programmer\wpkg\wpkgsrv.exe /install > c:\programmer\wpkg\wpkginst --SETTINGSFILE=l:\settings.xml > > I have attached my settings.xml > > If I check the running processes after login I do not see wpkg service > running so my guess is that it's not launched during boot!?!?!

The system is not > configured to allow inactive services" Just use WPKG Client installer. Your users should not be administrators.
