[implemented] Extra information on skipped entries

[implemented] Extra information on skipped entries

Postby Pete Monger » 01.12.2011, 11:22

I'm analysing the log file produced by the Installation part and was wondering if it would be possible to include some information on each reported skipped entry.
i.e. it says:
Code: Select all
Info: Skipped update KB890830 due to matching black list entry

Would it be possible for it to say something like:
Code: Select all
Info: Skipped update KB890830 due to matching black list entry - Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool


To achieve this, the format of the exclude list could change to allow additional information on the line.
e.g. instead of:
Code: Select all
890830

Could it say something like
Code: Select all
890830 Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool

and that information be used in the output log
Where the reason for exclusion is more complex, more explanation could be given. Where the reason is due to a user setting on the Download part, this could also be stated

Thanks for a great tool!

Hi Pete,

yes, please: :arrow: http://trac.wsusoffline.net/browser/trunk (r320): '- Installation exclude list (...\client\exclude\ExcludeList.txt) may contain comma separated descriptions (Thanks to "Pete Monger")'

For the download part, this won't be an option due to size and handling of the tables.

Regards
Torsten Wittrock

Hello,

a second ExcludeList.txt can be stored in the custom directory.
To get the same extra information the line 49 of the ListUpdatesToInstall.cmd should changed:

Code: Select all
  for /F "tokens=*" %%i in (..\exclude\custom\ExcludeList.txt) do echo %%i>>"%TEMP%\ExcludeList.txt"


Best regards

Hi Reiner,

you're right, I forgot that ( :arrow: http://trac.wsusoffline.net/trac.fcgi/browser/trunk (r322)).
Thanks for your attention!
