Greetings, all.
I have been trying to install eCS RC6a.
The installation fails during Phase 2 while installing TCP/IP.
I have an nForce 1gig network chip set built onto the motherboard.
I have also tried activating and deactivating other components that have been known in the past to create difficulties.
I have selected and deselected related networking components with no resulting changes.
NVeth drivers work well under RC4 and RC5. I have selected that and have also tried both the Genmac nForce driver and the null driver, however it always yields a popup window with error 29.
From the ecsinst.log;
Installing TCP/IP applications ...
+++ A variable on line 103 was not initialized:
retcode=CopyFile(netwdrv'\mptn\bin\setup.tcp', netwdrv'\mptn\bin\SETUP.CMD', log2)
[Thu Feb 26 12:41:56] Product Returned 0x0067, Unexpected condition.
[Thu Feb 26 12:41:56] TCP/IP install failed.
The CD passes the self-test.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Is there a known solution, (or practical suggestion), one can offer?
I will move this along to the developers if none arises.
Thank-you.
Hi Ben
This is a known problem. I seem to remember that the install script tries to read from a non-existent network drive instead of the cd during the install thus throwing up the error - but *only* if you select to use static ip addressing. The workaround is to use dhcp for the install and change it to static upon completion.
Regards
Pete
Ah!
Thank-you very much, Pete.
I'll give that a try and report back.
Pete,
Just confirming that dynamic vs static IP addresses cured the problem.
Thanks again. :)

please explain how your post relates to the thread here (if at all).
You seem to be spreading links to ISO images... and looking at the fact that you recently tried to announce filesharing links to "pirated" software I really urge you to
- refrain from doing so
- explain what the purpose of this post was
Otherwise, the moderators will be forced to remove this post (this will happen 8pm CET unless you modify/remove the above post or explain what it's meant for)
Cheers,
Thomas
