Deployment Solution

I resently encountered an error on one laptop where the DeployAnywhere detects the wireless card as a critical network device and fails to find a driver for it.

I have verified that the drivers are in the DriverDB(as per attachment), I even booted the computer with the Wireless controller disabled(by swith) but still the deployanywhere detects it and fails.

any help please?

Are you using SP1 of DS?  There were some fixes to how wireless drivers were handled in SP1 

Hey RufusUCS,

Do you turn off the wireless in machine or you disable the wireless in bios?

I had the same problem with HP Eliteboook 8440p and for solve this problem I did a "workaround".

I disabled the wireless in BIOS for deploy image and enabled after the deploy image completed.

Sally is right there are some fixes gone in to SP1 and also in MR1 with respect to driver addition and Deployanywhere , If you have not yet updated then do so.

Did you tried the new build of  DS?

If not can you share what is the hardware where you see this problem.

We need to know if that works for othes as well.  Thanks!

Fernando is right - you can't just disable the radio using the switch on the side, you actually have to go into the BIOS and turn it off there.

I am having this problem as well, on DS 7.1 SP1 MR1 with Latitude E6420. It's failing on the Broadcom Wireless NIC. From other people's posts, I glean this problem was fixed in MR1. Unfortunately, my entire DriversDB folder blew up completely after upgrading to MR1 and I had to copy the drivers back into the folder using SP1's DriversDB folder. I have subsequently tried doing a repair of the entire Deployment Solution Suite, but this did not fix my DriversDB issue. In fact, as far as I could tell, no single file changed within the DriversDB folder structure.

How does one "repair" the DriversDB once it gets corrupted?

If I understand correctly all you need to do is delete "drivers.manifest.txt" on DriversDB root directory.
