For example, open a command prompt in the client computer and try executing the file manually: \\mynetwork-share\myapplication\setup.
After making the corrections as needed, try if the file can be accessed from the client computer. The file name has been specified correctly. The file is available in the specified path. Download the executable file and place it in the network share as specified in the package definition. The executable file name might have been wrongly specified. The specified file is not available in the network share. However, you have not downloaded the product and placed it in the network share. You would have selected the application from the pre-defined list while creating the package. This could happen in the following cases: Causeĭesktop Central is not able to access the executable file. You are trying to perform Software Deployment and you get an error - "The system cannot find the file specified". Any insight is appreciated.Software Deployment failure - The system cannot find the file specified Problem I am really unsure as to why I am producing these errors. The DISM log produces error messages "Failed opening package" and "Failed to get the underlying CBS package." The DISM log file can be found at C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log The system cannot find the file specified. Lastly, I've tried an alternative Windows 7/8 tool DISM to try to achieve essentially the same task using the following syntax in an elevated command prompt:Ĭommnand Prompt> dism.exe /online /add-package /packagepath:c:\test\test.cabĪn error occurred trying to open - c:\test\test.cab Error: 0x80070002 Whole procedure on different computers, and have received the exact same error code, so i doubt the pkgmgr tool istelf is corrupt. Hopefully this rules out the possibility of a corrupt or incompatible file. I've used several different ".cab" files, including some downloaded from the Microsoft Update Catalog, with the same result. The path points to "test.cab" which is a renamed windows addon which contains the necessary "svcpack" folder and the "entries_XX.ini"įile. My initial impression was that my syntax was incorrect, though I can't spot the error. iv been using windows 8 for a few years, search also sucked, so i eventually started using explorer to search for my files. I'm trying to test the integrity of some ".cab" packages through DISM and Package Manager but I keep getting the generic error message "the system cannot find the file specified".Ĭommand Prompt> pkgmgr.exe /ip /m:c:\test\test.cabĪlternatively, I might add quotes around the pathname:Ĭommand Prompt> pkgmgr.exe /ip /m:"c:\test\test.cab" windows 10 start meniu search cant find particular folders or files in General Support i read alot about this, yes i did index everything.
