Has anyone tried adding the three CleanupScales utility files to an AutoCAD 2010 deployment?
I tried doing this to save a couple steps during our upcoming 2010 rollout. I simply tried adding the files as "additional files" to an existing deployment, and the deployment creation process completes with no errors. Unfortunately, the deployment will no longer work once I add them!
When you try to run the deployment on a machine to install it, it stops with an error during the "copying files" stage (Internal Error 2602, followed by a long string that varies each time). In fact, once you add the three files for the utility, the deployment will never work again, even if you go back and remove the three files...had to completely rebuild a new deployment.
Always a glutton for punishment, I tried this a second time, with same results...deployment worked until files added, then never worked again, even once files were removed. I'm not sure why the conflict, since no default installed filenames conflict with these, and the other files I add cause no issues in a deployment.
Anyone else tried this, or perhaps have a workaround, or is it simply not possible? Not a real big deal...more curiosity at this point than anything else.
