InstallUpgradeDriver - Unknown error values

[noisecrime]

Hi,

I'm using Kuba Ober's InstallUpgradeDriver script from the NSIS archive to install a driver.

I've had a report of an error (5) returned from 'UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices' but have no idea what this means.

Unfortunately the author only added 1 error mask
; the masked value of ERROR_NO_SUCH_DEVINST is 523
!define ERROR_NO_SUCH_DEVINST -536870389

but there are others
ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
ERROR_IN_WOW64
ERROR_INVALID_FLAGS
NO_ERROR

However i cannot find the error code for any of these, i think i need the Windows DDK, which i don't have and can't get.

Anyone here know the error codes for the 4 listed above (including NO_ERROR as that is an error) so i can add them to the code.

thanks

assuming it's a standard windows error returned then i found...

5 Access is denied. ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED

I know this is an old thread, but here are some the following error values returned by, UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices. These error messages are a MUST for any device driver programmer!! i'll be adding the documentation to the NSIS's Wiki site shortly.

Code formatted for NSIS

code:
!define NO_ERROR              0

!define ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND  2

!define ERROR_IN_WOW64        -536870347  ; 0xE0000235

!define ERROR_INVALID_FLAGS   1004        ; 0x3EC

!define ERROR_NO_SUCH_DEVINST -536870389  ; 0xE000020B

Another thing that should be noted about, UpdateDriverForPlugAndPlayDevices is the "DWORD InstallFlags" parameter. Below are the values for that as well. Depending on your project the FORCE flag may be appropriate.

code:
!define INSTALLFLAG_FORCE           0x1

!define INSTALLFLAG_READONLY        0x2

!define INSTALLFLAG_NONINTERACTIVE  0x4

A common one we will all run into now is, ERROR_IN_WOW64. Here's Microsoft's documentation on the subject:

As an FYI, ERROR_NO_SUCH_DEVINST is defined by the following:

ERROR_NO_SUCH_DEVINST = (APPLICATION_ERROR_MASK | ERROR_SEVERITY_ERROR | 0x20B)
APPLICATION_ERROR_MASK = 0x20000000
ERROR_SEVERITY_ERROR = 0xC0000000
