Not running provided custom scripts

[MercifulCamel]

I'm trying to create a W10 Pro golden image.

It doesn't seem like my WindowsCloudImage is running my custom scripts that I have provided.
I added a powershell script that will install provided nvidia drivers and named it RunBeforeWindowsUpdates.ps1, it doesn't seem like it runs at all.
I have tested it and am sure that it will run and install drivers if run manually but would prefer that it was done during windows image creation phase.

Looked through logs in C:\Windows\Panther folder but it didn't shed any light on the problem.

Let me know if there's anymore information I can provide you with

Hey there!

Is your script really named RunAfterWindowsUpdate.ps1 ? If so, the name isn't correct, it should be RunAfterWindowsUpdates.ps1 (you're missing the s at the end of Update), at least from the example config, that you can find here :

https://github.com/cloudbase/windows-imaging-tools/blob/master/Examples/windows-image-config-example.ini#L61-L65

The script has the s at the end, it was only a typo on my part when writing the issue.

$tempFolder = "C:\UnattendedResources\CustomResources"
$install_args = "-s -passive -noreboot -noeula"
Start-Process -FilePath "$tempFolder\win_nvidia.exe" -ArgumentList $install_args -Wait

Is the script which doesn't seem to be running, made sure the resources are in the right spot and even paused the imaging process to test run it.

[MercifulCamel]

Could it be because the Execution Policy is not set? But then it shouldn't be able to run other scripts right?

Hello @MercifulCamel,

Your issue looks like a misconfiguration, any logs from the imaging creation run would be helpful.

Can you please share the imaging tools logs from the PowerShell console that run New-WindowsOnlineImage?
Also, the RunAfter|RunBefore Hooks need to be in this folder: UnattendResources\CustomScripts\

Thank you,
Adrian.

Hi @ader1990

Sorry for the late replay.
I had to translate some things because they were written out in my native language instead of English so it might not be correctly worded.

Hello @MercifulCamel,

Has the issue been resolved?
From the logs you have shared, there is an issue with the access to the folder --> The process cant access file C:\UnattendResources because it's being used by another process.. Maybe an issue with the nvidia installer that you are trying to use?

Thank you,
Adrian Vladu
