APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Internet Explorer Administration Kit 3.2a
This article was previously published under Q158730
SYMPTOMS
When you run the Internet Explorer Administration Kit (IEAK) Wizard, you
may receive the following error message:
Unable to open the report file '.\~cabpack.rpt'
This is followed by the following error message:
Cannot create or replace Autorun.inf. Access is denied.
CAUSE
- When you run the IEAK Wizard, you are given the option to include
custom files. If you add any file that has the same name as a name
on the following list, you will receive an error while building
the distributable files. When the Wizard tries to create the
customized version of the file, you will receive the errors
listed at the beginning of this article.
The following files are used internally by the Setup mechanism for
Internet Explorer and the IEAK, and should not be used as optional
component file names:
Iedkcs32.dll
Install.exe
Install.ins
Iexplore.inf
Activex.inf
Addons.inf
Iexplore.cab
Infinst.exe
Inst16.dll
Inst32.dll
- This same error message also occurs if the user is including any
custom executable to be installed along with IE and the executable
is located in the same directory as the custom files.
RESOLUTION
- Do not include optional components that have the same names as
those files on the list of reserved file names above.
-or-
- Move the custom executable to its own directory before running
the IEAK Wizard.
