themanfromict Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 I've been trying to rebuild one of the library computer since Monday, with multiple build errors. Currently, when I attempt to build from either the network or WinPE it aborts before install OS with the error message: Image handling exception: WIMGAPI function WIMCreateFile failed with error 1392 while processing E:\Images\d0p2.wim Anyone experienced this error before and found a solution? Thanks Neil
kai91 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 have you tried re generating your build disk? Also have you performed a full restart of RM Service host?
themanfromict Posted September 20, 2013 Author Posted September 20, 2013 Yes to both. Rebuilt another computer yesterday without any problems. Been all through the RM support pages but can't see any mention of error no. 1392.
nickbro Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Try wiping the drive clean, i.e. using disk part to delete the partitions on the disk, then try rebuilding using PXE
Admiral208 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 faulty hard drive? can you swap the drive and test again.
themanfromict Posted September 20, 2013 Author Posted September 20, 2013 Just put in a new HDD that RM have sent out. Fails with the same error...
themanfromict Posted September 20, 2013 Author Posted September 20, 2013 Just spoke to RM. Apparently anything with WIMGAPI is 99% of the time a RAM issue. Who knew!
andyturpie Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) We had this identical error message just last week on a workstation that wouldn't build and was as you say down to a faulty RAM stick. Apparently corrupts the OS .wim when pulling it down off the server... Edited September 20, 2013 by andyturpie
howartp Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 I don't normally reopen 4 year old threads, but having just come across this problem on a VMware virtual PC, I've decided I must have a faulty VIRTUAL stick of RAM then...!
Techykev Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 I have come across the WIMGAPI build error many times over the last 8-9 years and nine times out of ten it is the partitioning/formatting on the HDD. Once it was found to be a faulty RAM module and a couple of times it was faulty intermittent NIC/network issues. I think that a couple of occasions it was caused by the Server awaiting a reboot after updates too.
