does anyone have plugin for the windows debugging tool Windbg.exe? This is part of the debugging tools for windows off the MS website.

Could be useful to analyse dump files and minidump files on crashed systems..perfect for Bartpe.

How Does this look...its a bit fat..but it works. Feel free to cut it down.

Ideally i would like to use batch file to prompt for input for all the required paramaters..thats is 1) Getting access to internet (check for proxy), 2) path for Dump file, 3) location to I386....ect similar to the one used in the stinger plugin that way it can launch

windbg -y SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols -i c:\i386 -z c:\dumps\minidump.dmp

I'm not very good and bat files, but these can help windbg to be easier to use.

Windbg.cmd

CODE

@Echo Off
SET /p DUMPLOCATION=Enter the name and location of the Dump File (e.g C:\WINNT\Memory.DMP)
Start Dump.bat %DUMPLOCATION%

Dump.bat

CODE

@Echo Off
SET /p SYMBOLS=Enter the folder for Symbols to be saved(e.g B:\SYMBOLS)
SET /p Source=Enter the location of the I386 Source(e.g D:\I386)
windbg -y SRV*%SYMBOLS%*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols -i %SOURCE% -z %1

should have explained this a bit better, copy the contents of the program directory out of the "Windows Debugging Tools" folder.

I think windbg will only need the following files to run...
windbg.exe
dbgeng.dll
dbghelp.dll
debugger.chm
debugger.chi

But i suspect it might need some other files as well like symsrv.dll,symbolcheck.dll....so i've just copied them all for now. : )

No worries...

you probably don't need the dump.bat as can you can set all of the variables once the program has launched.

Hope you don't mind, but i thought i'd post your question so that other might be able to help...

The errors that seems to be the problem is

CODE

\pebuilder\Programs\windebug\usb\files\usb\*.*" returned error 3: The system cannot find the path specified.

I don't believe the other items

CODE

MSOXP Error Reporting.xpl" to "c:\pebuilder\Programs\X-Setup Pro\plugins\XQ MSOXP Error Reporting.xpl"

WinXP Error Reporting 1.xpl" to "c:\pebuilder\Programs\X-Setup Pro\plugins\XQ WinXP Error Reporting 1.xpl"

Error Reporting.xpl"
DecompressOrCopy file "G:\BART PE STUFF\pebuilder3032\plugin\XSP\files\plugins\XQ

2003 Error Reporting.xpl"

are related...
