XpeFiles.com - Is it working

[Lasse]

Hi
At XpeFiles.com - I get the response
"Error Executing Database Query" when I click "Find a resource".

Is this a problem just for me, or is it down ?

I need Slobodans EWF Ram Reg component.
I tried to do things as described in in XPE SP2 documentation "Configuring EWF RAM Reg Mode"
But I can not get it to work.
There isn't even a single line in FBALog.txt about EWF.
Is this documentation correct ?

EWF driver is running but EwfMgr C: gives:
Failed getting protected volume configuration with error 1

Lasse,

"Error Executing Database Query" when I click "Find a resource".

You are right. The website is again down :-(
The ColdFusion on 2K3 server is a real headache for Brad who owns the site.

I need Slobodans EWF Ram Reg component.

I guess Slobodan may be able to send you his component himself through this NG e.g.

Yes, it is.

Did you check if you happened to have EWF Config volume on your target from some old attempts?
Use etprep /detlete or diskpart to delete the config partition.

Also you may want to write for us the steps you did exactly so that we could find the problem.

Hi Lasse,

There isn't even a single line in FBALog.txt about EWF.

This is as expected.

Is this documentation correct ?

Basicaly this documentation is simmilar to what I did and explined in my component.

They removed script that filled following entry so you must do it manually:

Key Name: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{71A27CDD-812A-11D0-BEC7-08002BE2092F}.
Name: UpperFilters
Type: REG_MULTI_SZ
Value: EWF

Regards,
Slobodan
PS: Recheck registry from regedit after FBA.

Thanks for your response KM and Slobodan

It seems to be working now.

I manually run the regini file below after FBA, then it works.

It was "ClumpSize" and "VolumeId" that was missing.
The documentation says: add 'ArcName' and 'Type' which I did in my first trial.
The same with key ...\Control\Class\{71..} UpperFilters - EWF

It seems to me that the documentation has missed the "ClumpSize" "VolumeId" and "Enabled" values.
(or I made something wrong).

I found out that a missing '..Volume0\Enabled' is interpreted as Enabled = 1.
EwfMgr C: -disable creates the 'Enable' value and sets it t 0. -enable sets it to 1.

The commented ';' lines + 'Type' and 'ArcName' was already there.

EwfReg.ini
hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\ewf
; ErrorControl = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
; Group = System Bus Extender
; Start = REG_DWORD 0x00000000
; Type = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
; FBA
; OVSize = REG_DWORD 0x00000000
; OVLevel = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
; PVConfigs = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
; EwfEnable = REG_MULTI_SZ "0"
; EnableLazyWrite = REG_MULTI_SZ "0"
; PVDisk = REG_MULTI_SZ "0"
; PVPart = REG_MULTI_SZ "1"
; PVDiskType = REG_MULTI_SZ "0"
; PVType = REG_MULTI_SZ "1"
; PVOptimize = REG_MULTI_SZ "0"
Parameters
Protected
Volume0
Type = REG_DWORD 0x00000001
ArcName = multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
ClumpSize = REG_DWORD 0x00000200
VolumeId = {1EA414D1-6760-4625-8CBE-4F9F85A48E15}
Enabled = REG_DWORD 0x00000001


Am I doing things right, or is it just luck that it seems to work this time ?
When I am working with Xpe/Target Designer I often ask myself that question.

Can I assume that 'VolumeId' allways has the same value (on other HW).

I want to understand what I am doing.

Lasse,

Enabled value must be present with 0 or 1 value.
But I do not remeber if ClumpSize and VolumeId are required. (I do not see purpose for their existence)

Slobodan
