Reasons for Failure of SetRestartDir

• Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1

SUMMARY

The SetRestartDir subroutine from the Setup Toolkit will return 0 (zero) for any of the following reasons:

• The restart directory has already been set by an earlier call to SetRestartDir from the setup script.



• The value of the STF_CWDDIR symbol is an empty string or it is not a valid directory.



• _MSSETUP.EXE is not in the STF_CWDDIR directory. This is true if MSSETUP.EXE is not included in the [Files] section of the SETUP.LST file.



• _MSSETUP.EXE cannot be copied from the STF_CWDDIR directory to the restart directory.



• _MSSETUP._Q_, a temporary file created in the temporary directory specified in SETUP.LST by SETUP.EXE, cannot be copied to the restart directory.



• The restart directory specified is invalid. The syntax for the directory name is:

  
        drive:\[dir[\subdir...][\]]
