custum tuntap driver

purdueduke

I am trying to build a custom tuntap driver. I followed the instructions and used buildtap.py to create a new 9.0.21 IPv6 supported driver. I then signed it. It was build on Windows 2012 and I am trying to install it on a different Windows 2012 driver.

Trying to install, results in the below:

c:\tapinstall.exe install driver\OemVista.inf tavvetun

Device node created. Install is complete when drivers are installed...
Updating drivers for tavvetun from C:\Users\gary\tuntap\driver\OemVista.inf.
tapinstall.exe failed.

setupapi.dev look like the following:

; Note to Developers:
;
; If you are bundling the TAP-Windows driver with your app,
; you should try to rename it in such a way that it will
; not collide with other instances of TAP-Windows defined
; by other apps. Multiple versions of the TAP-Windows
; driver, each installed by different apps, can coexist
; on the same machine if you follow these guidelines.
; NOTE: these instructions assume you are editing the
; generated OemWin2k.inf file, not the source
; OemWin2k.inf.in file which is preprocessed by winconfig
; and uses macro definitions from settings.in.
;
; (1) Rename all tapXXXX instances in this file to
; something different (use at least 5 characters
; for this name!)
; (2) Change the "!define TAP" definition in openvpn.nsi
; to match what you changed tapXXXX to.
; (3) Change TARGETNAME in SOURCES to match what you
; changed tapXXXX to.
; (4) Change TAP_COMPONENT_ID in common.h to match what
; you changed tapXXXX to.
; (5) Change SZDEPENDENCIES in service.h to match what
; you changed tapXXXX to.
; (6) Change DeviceDescription and Provider strings.
; (7) Change PRODUCT_TAP_WIN_DEVICE_DESCRIPTION in constants.h to what you
; set DeviceDescription to.

The one section is OemVista.inf which looks a little odd to me is the Characteristics line.

Any help or debugging ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Update:

I tried installing on a Windows 7 server with the same driver and inf as above and I get a PnPDriverNotFound.

Insights?

windows 7 server :?: :?:

A VM running Windows 7.

Another update: I am using the source from https://github.com/OpenVPN/tap-windows6

Just using the source as is, no modification, I have the same problem. It appears not to be related to any changes I am making. I am using "buildtap.py" to build it and tapinstall (devcon) to install it.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Gary
