Devicemetadata package installation from WMIS fails randomly

Hi,

We created the device metadata package and submitted to winqual as a preview submission.
Review by Microsoft passed and the status is now "Live" which means the package is ready at the WMIS.

I modified the registry key and provided the preview key so my Windows 7 was ready for installing the package.
All I needed to do was that just connect the device by USB or WSD.

When I connected the device to PC, metadata package was successfully installed first.
However, when I tested this metadata installation several times on the same environment, I got a random failure that metadata pacakge wasn't installed to my PC at all.
Some times it's installed, sometimes not.

I want to know why this failure occurs randomly?

After reading MSDN, there was a way to debug from Event viewer.
However, I don't see Devicemetadata/operations channel in the Event viewer, only Devicemetadata/Debug is available.
If you know how to enable this channel, please also let me know.

Thanks!

Hi mix,

It is not clear to me what kind of project do you develop. Which language and .NET Framework version do you use to develop it?

Hi Kira,

We are building a devicemetadata package for the printers on English Windows 7 OS.

Am I off topic here?

If so, please kindly inform me which topic I should enter this issue.

Thanks,

Hi Mix,

Yes, it is not a winform question. But I cannot decide which forum is best for you. I have moved this thread to “Where is the forum for…?” Hope they can guide you to the right forum.
