Unreal Engine Built In Windows Built.bat is not working

[omrumcetin]

Hi All, I have removed the template because I'm running preconfigured script inside of Unreal Engine. So I have gone through little bit on UDN and @adamrehn forwarded me to here. So, when I use built.bat under Windows Containers, I'm having below error while expanding.

Can't open input file: c:\users\containeradministrator\appdata\local\temp\directx\apr2007_xinput_x64.cab.

I guess the DirectX runtime doesnt create files and libraries that script requests.

# Retrieve the DirectX runtime files required by the Unreal Engine, since even the full Windows base image does not include them
RUN curl --progress-bar -L "https://download.microsoft.com/download/8/4/A/84A35BF1-DAFE-4AE8-82AF-AD2AE20B6B14/directx_Jun2010_redist.exe" --output %TEMP%\directx_redist.exe && `
    start /wait %TEMP%\directx_redist.exe /Q /T:%TEMP%\DirectX
    expand %TEMP%\DirectX\APR2007_xinput_x64.cab -F:xinput1_3.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ && `
    expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Feb2010_X3DAudio_x64.cab -F:X3DAudio1_7.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ && `
    expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Jun2010_D3DCompiler_43_x64.cab -F:D3DCompiler_43.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ && `
    expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Jun2010_XAudio_x64.cab -F:XAudio2_7.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ && `
    expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Jun2010_XAudio_x64.cab -F:XAPOFX1_5.dll C:\GatheredDlls\

Btw I have commented each expand in order to make it operatable but its valid for all following expand lines. I can able to have some docker win image after I comment out all expand lines.

Could you please check this ?

Your script block here looks every similar to the old (up to v0.88) block used in the ue4-build-prerequisites Dockerfile, except that code always did the download in a separate RUN from the extraction.

I'm not sure where that code came from (I didn't really understand your comment about built.bat), but I observe that the second line is missing a

 && `

at the end, so I guess if this is in a batch file, it's trying to run the expand commands outside the container. (Although if this is a batch file, then RUN wouldn't work anyway...)

That syntax I just forgot to put above command.

Step 5/13 : RUN curl --progress-bar -L "https://download.microsoft.com/download/8/4/A/84A35BF1-DAFE-4AE8-82AF-AD2AE20B6B14/directx_Jun2010_redist.exe" --output %TEMP%\directx_redist.exe &&    start /wait %TEMP%\directx_redist.exe /Q /T:%TEMP%\DirectX &&   expand %TEMP%\DirectX\APR2007_xinput_x64.cab -F:xinput1_3.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ &&       expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Feb2010_X3DAudio_x64.cab -F:X3DAudio1_7.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ &&   expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Jun2010_D3DCompiler_43_x64.cab -F:D3DCompiler_43.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ &&  expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Jun2010_XAudio_x64.cab -F:XAudio2_7.dll C:\GatheredDlls\ &&       expand %TEMP%\DirectX\Jun2010_XAudio_x64.cab -F:XAPOFX1_5.dll C:\GatheredDlls\

Can't open input file: c:\users\containeradministrator\appdata\local\temp\directx\apr2007_xinput_x64.cab.

Any solution for above ?

And even I proceed from that stage I'm having error

I doubt anyone is going to do anything with this issue given that it doesn't have clear repro steps. Closing.
