TAP install failing on Windows 7

mewing · Post by **mewing** » Wed Mar 21, 2012 6:15 pm

I'm trying to install OpenVPN v. 2.2.2 on my PC running Windows 7 Home Premium (64 bit). The installer says the install is successful, but the log shows that the TAP device failed to install.

The full log is below, but here are the critical lines:

...
TAP INSTALL (tap0901)
Device node created. Install is complete when drivers are installed...
Updating drivers for tap0901 from C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenVPN\driver\OemWin2k.inf.
tapinstall.exe failed.
tapinstall install returned: 2
tapinstall cumulative status: 2
...

I've tried running the installer as Administrator and booting my PC with the "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement" option, but neither of these fixes the problem. Any suggestions?

Here's the entire log:

Some more information on my problem:

tapinstall.exe (aka devcon.exe) writes lots of log information to c:\Windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log. That's where I found this bit

Code: Select all

!!!  ndv:           Error(000005aa) installing device!
...

Relevant, certainly, but not very enlightening. What resources are insufficient? I Googled error 1450 but it didn't get me much closer to understanding. Googling "CoInstaller 1: failed(0x000005aa)", however, got me a valuable hit, http://www.osronline.com/showthread.cfm?link=181873, where someone asks for help with a miniport install problem. This advised checking for a particular registry entry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NDIS\IfTypes\[ifType]: IfUsedNetLuidIndices

which is supposed to be a bitmap of locally unique IDs that have been assigned to other interfaces.

In this instance the IfType is "1" as the log snippet above shows, and in my case, the value of that registry entry is a truckload of ffs (128 to be exact), which by all accounts is a bad sign. It supposedly means too many interfaces. I also learned that registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC 1-08002BE10318}

is supposed to list all interfaces on the system.

My registry lists 40 devices under this key, which is apparently not particularly extraordinary. Unfortunately, the helpful advice runs out at this point and reinstalling Windows is proposed as the best option. I'd very much like to avoid that if I can fix this some other way.

Any advice appreciated.

thanks for digging into this so deeply - this issue has been reported before but we've never been able to track it down.

Can you try installing/adding a tap-win32 adapter without using devcon.exe ? does that work?
it could also be an issue with the devcon.exe used - openvpn includes a 32bit version but there's also a 64bit version available
(e.g.
http://www.ryanvictory.com/posts/automa ... n-windows/)

can you try adding the tap-win32 adapter using that version ?

mewing · Post by **mewing** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 2:41 pm

Thanks for the reply janjust.

I tried both your suggestions. Ran hdwwiz.exe to try installing the driver via the hardware wizard. End result was the same as before, with the same errors showing in setupapi.dev.log. I also downloaded the 64-bit devcon.exe from the page you linked to. Again, the result was the same. Always tripping up as it tries to allocate the LUID to the new device.

I'm happy to attempt any other suggestions.

Post by **janjust** » Fri Mar 23, 2012 3:38 pm

just wondering: can you try this suggestion also:
http://geo.geek.nz/development/running- ... -programs/

it's something to do with the registry not being large enough....

mewing · Post by **mewing** » Mon Mar 26, 2012 3:08 pm

Well, I tried the RegistrySizeLimit tweek, but the same error occurs. It really does look to me like the IfUsedNetLuidIndices value is the root of my problems. I'm getting desperate to have this fixed. I'm going to try posting my problem on a Windows forum and see if anyone there knows a fix for this.

Will post an answer here if I find one.

I seem to have a similar problem. Can you help me?

Context:

- I'm new to OpenVPN
- I'm trying to install the client on my netbook under Win7 Starter (i.e. 32-bit Win7)
- I downloaded the current stable Windows installer openvpn-2.2.2-install.exe from http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-sourc ... est-stable
- when I installed, I got some (somewhat hidden) diagnostics like the OP
- "ipconfig /all" does not show the desired device.

Here's from the log:

Code: Select all

TAP REMOVE OLD TAP
No devices were removed.
tapinstall remove TAP0801 returned: 0

c:\windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log is really large and seems to go back to before the machine was built! Anyway, the relevant part seems to start about 180k lines in!

At line 179643, the first transaction to go bad starts. It looks as if there is some certificate problem. Notice the things that the system annotated with one or more exclamation marks on the left.

My problem was solved by using "run as administrator" to execute the installer. The error message sure didn't suggest this.

I'm trying to install OpenVPN 2.3.2, or tap-windows-9.9.2_3.exe from OpenVPN Downloads page to a Windows 64-bit PC, and in both cases get the same error as reported above.

Nothing from this Manual hints can help with the issue. Here is Devcon.exe log for the latest Tap-Windows driver install. As you can see, the errors are exactly the same as a year ago, looks like nothing was done to fix them for so long:

I wonder if the admin can possibly add a Spoiler or Hidden Text feature to the forum to improve readability?

Critical error during the install seems to be:

Code: Select all

!!!  cci:                     NdisCoinst: NcipAllocateNetLuidIndex failed with error 0x5aa

I did some more digging and found the Technet thread Error 1450 when installing TAP device driver that links the above Tap driver install failure to the corrupt Windows Registry key value:

Code: Select all

Registry Value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\NDIS\IfTypes\1\IfUsedNetLuidIndices
 Registry Data: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ....

It in turn references another thread NDIS miniport: ERROR_NO_SYSTEM_RESOURCES when installing with more detail info on assigning IfUsedNetLuidIndices values. Yet another thread VPN MSI installation failed on Windows 7 links an MS Fix ifcleanup.exe to clean up the Registry of unused multiple hidden adapters, but also adds:

"It is sometimes not sufficient to run the ifcleanup script. Sometimes you have to export the
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\
registry key and look for the culprit subkey. Delete it and all subkeys and it installs, ie.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Network\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
and then run ifcleanup"

No sure if I understand correctly the last quote, what exactly it suggests to do? It looks like it says "delete the key with multiple adapters, run the patch, then reboot to auto recreate the deleted key" or something like that?

But the patch, while not harmful, did nothing for me to resolve the Tap driver install issue, I assume because it doesn't update by itself the IfUsedNetLuidIndices value. The problem appears to be a Windows Registry failure (deficiency) to auto update IfUsedNetLuidIndices value. There are suggestions on the web to manually change that value to 01, however it usually reported to result in the newly created adapter while present not working anyway.

Rest of the info on the web about this install error suggests to reinstall Windows, which I guess is not an option for a majority of users.

The most interesting part is, competing with OpenVPN product HotSpotShield VPN's driver installs on the same PC without a glitch. Which means, its install code takes care of that regisrty irregularity, and the same approach can be used in OpenVPN driver install code.

I did some testing on my WIndows 7 test VM:

Turned off test mode on my Windows 7 box (was on due to historic reasons)
Removed as many instances of tap-windows from the DriverStore as possible
Removed all installed instances of tap-windows
Rebooted
Installed tap-windows-9.9.2_3.exe with no issues

It seems even successful tap-windows installs write some errors messages to c:\windows\inf\setupapi.dev.log

Those error don't seem to mean anything, or if they do, they're not critical at least. Probably they should be treated as "notices" or "warnings". These seem to be the important lines indicating success:

Code: Select all

     sig:                          Success: File is signed in Authenticode(tm) catalog.

     sto:                     Driver package is valid.

     sto:                {DRIVERSTORE_IMPORT_NOTIFY_VALIDATE exit(0x00000000)} 11:45:58.603

The exit(0x00000000) value typically indicates a success, and indeed, my tap-windows driver installed just fine. I will send a mail to
openvpn-devel mailing list asking about this to see if having those "errors" is normal, just in case there is something funky going on in tap-windows driver signing that could bite us back later.

The log from Sam (above) shows a real failure, which we need to look into deeper to understand where and why it's failing.

Btw. I added some driver debugging stuff here.

EDIT: It seems I was a bit hasty responding and did not notice that the same research was done above, lol

. Anyways, I doubt Hotspot VPN does anything special - OpenVPN and almost certainly HotSpot VPN (which uses OpenVPN) use devcon.exe to install the tap-windows driver. The devcon.exe is a tool provided by Microsoft for installing drivers from the command prompt. All of the driver installation logic is embedded into this tool, including the logic that does the registry changes - we only give the tool a few parameters and then it does it's thing. In sambul's case the registry changes are probably failing, because devcon.exe is trying to assign the tap-windows driver a luid that is reserved, or otherwise unavailable. This would be the natural consequence of Windows losing track of network drivers and their luids at some earlier point. This would also explain why installing some drivers does work, whereas installing tap-windows does not.

The meat of the matter is that we (=the OpenVPN project) can't really do anything to fix this problem, because it's not a problem in tap-windows driver or installer, but in the client workstation. If the registry can't be fixed, then reinstalling Windows is probably the only "fix".

Here's my original posting - it's somewhat redundant, but still contains some useful information.

Looking at sambul21's logs this seems to be where the install fails:

I do not have either of these errors on my logs after a successful tap-windows driver install. This issue is not limited to tap-windows installs, but can affect other network driver installs. Here's one example of this exact failure when installing a NDIS miniport driver, with good explanation from Jeffrey Tippet of what's happening and how to fix it.

Usually the 1450 error seems to be triggered by lack of memory, or large file copying (see Microsoft KB article 304101). That's why googling for 1450 gives lots of links related to backup tools. In this case the 1450 error is preceded by the "NcipAllocateNetLuidIndex failed" message, which points towards a corrupted registry. The corruption could have been caused by too many installed drivers (1000+) or by a (bad) registry cleaner. For further details and suggestions on how to fix this look at Jeffrey's postings.

The certificate "errors" that are shown in the driver install logs even after a successful install seem to be common, and not tied to tap-windows in particular, look here for example.

Except HotSpot VPN installs to a PC from 1st attempt without a glitch despite mentioned above IfUsedNetLuidIndices value, while OpenVPN and Tap-Windows driver are never able to install on the same PC. This means, current HotSpot VPN installer likely uses a different devcon.exe version, and almost certainly a different network driver. Even if only the driver NAME or version is different, it works well, and I doubt is the same driver as in Downloads on this site.

Btw, my PC has only 9 network adapters installed, not "hundreds", and there are several other threads in this forum section, related to exact same error at Tap-Windows install for seemingly exact same reason, which was never addressed. Its not proven given IfUsedNetLuidIndices value is irregular, and even if it is, this glitch seems to me of low consequence for a majority of network drivers, similar to "invalid certificate" error mentioned earlier (which is also not proven to have no effect). Simple question still remains:

- Why Anchorfree HSS VPN Adapter (taphss6) installs without a glitch before or after failed attempts of installing Tap-Windows driver, while Tap-Windows (tap0901) driver never installs at all?

- Is it possible to use taphss6 adapter with OpenVPN install instead of tap0901 missing, and how to?

Here is the download link to unpacked current HotSpot VPN package installer. May be you want to take a look on the driver installers and drivers inside?

sambul21 · Post by **sambul21** » Fri Dec 06, 2013 9:38 pm

I finally got it installed. The method is of course highly irregular, but might work for some other folks out there, and once installed, everything works:

- downloaded OpenVPN Portable, and run it to update to newer version and unpack;
- run the unpacked OpenVPNPortable.exe. It offered to install the missing Tap-Windows driver, click OK, then driver install fails as usual. However, a new Tap-Windows Adapter was still visible in Device Manager as Unknown Device, it was not deleted by the installer, but without driver attached

;
- open that Adapter and run Driver Update - Let me choose - Anchorfree HSS VPN Adapter Driver;
- once the driver was installed and the Adapter renamed to Anchorfree, I run the latest CyberGhost VPN installer, which earlier failed due to above driver error (or could run OpenVPN installer instead);
- this time the Anchorfree Adapter was renamed back to Tap-Windows Adapter 9 #2, and the package finally started working as it should.

Again, this is just a workaround, but at least it allows to use CyberGhost. Just out of sport interest I then also installed latest OpenVPN package, and it binded itself to the same adapter TAP-Windows Adapter V9 #2 without a glitch. I then checked IfUsedNetLuidIndices Registry value - it remained unchaged fff.... Now every folk with similar install error can try this method - its FREE.

sambul21 · Post by **sambul21** » Fri Dec 06, 2013 10:15 pm

To check if the method is repeatable, I uninstalled both CyberGhost and OpenVPN, so the new adapter was deleted. Than I uninstalled Tap-Windows driver by Uninstall.exe from C:\Program Files\TAP-Windows, and its inf from DriverStore by running pnputil.exe -d Oem119.inf from CMD. I left HotSpotShield installed with its driver Anchorfree. After that I attempted to reinstall CyberGhost, but faced the same Tap-Windows driver install error as before.

Then I repeated the above trick again, and it worked!

So now what remains is to find out, why Tap-Windows driver installation failed, while of Anchorfree driver succeeded? The issue is not so simple, given any driver development is an art, but at least some relevant info is visible in the Devcon install logs...

For Tap-Windows driver:

Code: Select all

For Anchorfree driver:

     cci:                          [NdisCoinst: Enter NcipHandleInstallPreProcessing]
     cci:                          NdisCoinst: NetCfgInstanceId does not exist

     cci:                          NdisCoinst: Allocated NetLuidIndex is 24

When replacing Anchorfree with Tap-Windows for an existing Tap-Windows Adapter:

Code: Select all

cci:                     [NdisCoinst: Enter NcipHandleInstallPreProcessing]
     cci:                     NdisCoinst: Guid of the adapter exists and is {BC4349DB-B304-4934-B1D5-056879100079}

     cci:                     NdisCoinst: NetLuidIndex exists and is 24
     cci:                     [NdisCoinst: Exit NcipHandleInstallPreProcessing]
     dvi:                CoInstaller 1: Exit
     dvi:                CoInstaller 2: Enter 17:09:34.138
     inf:                     Opened PNF: 'C:\Windows\INF\oem119.inf' ([strings])
     dvi:                CoInstaller 2: Exit
     dvi:                CoInstaller 3: Enter 17:09:34.143
     inf:                     Opened PNF: 'C:\Windows\INF\oem119.inf' ([strings])
     dvi:                CoInstaller 3: Exit
     dvi:                Class installer: Enter 17:09:34.145
     cci:                     [NCI BEGIN INSTALL DEVICE for ROOT\NET\0001]
     inf:                     Opened PNF: 'C:\Windows\INF\oem119.inf' ([strings])
     cci:                     NCI: NewDeviceInstall is 0. Assuming this is an update
     inf:                     AddReg=tap0901.reg  (oem119.inf line 88)
     inf:                     AddReg=tap0901.params.reg  (oem119.inf line 89)
     dvi:                     {Install DEVICE}

As you see from above logs, the system assigns different ifTypes to the drivers and different GUIDs, while Class GUID remains the same. Respectively, for each adapter ifType a separate Registry key exists, and IfUsedNetLuidIndices are different for these keys. As per NDIS Interface Types, ifType 1 corresponds to Other adapter types, and ifType 6 to Ethernet type. So in my system IfUsedNetLuidIndices for Other adapter type was broken (and more likely to be in other systems, due to Other being seldom used adapters from unknown developers

), while IfUsedNetLuidIndices for Ethernet adapter type was intact.

As a result, Anchorfree driver was installed without a glitch, while Tap-Windows install failed. Later, when Anchorfree was replaced with Tap-Windows for the same Adapter, its LUID and GUID already existed, and were left intact during the driver update.

Look strange are negative values PhysicalMediaType -1, MediaType -1, which might point to the root cause of the install failure. In fact, its possible that namely Tap-Windows driver install has broken IfUsedNetLuidIndices value and the adapter count due to errors in the driver files. There is no indication this value was broken before failed driver install, and this may be the case for every other failed driver install with similar errors. Not only the driver fails to install, it also broke the Registry under certain conditions that may not be present in a fresh Windows install, where many Registry keys simply don't exist.

I wanted to experiment with Tap-Windows driver install a bit more. Again deleted Tap-Windows adapter and driver already installed. Run again the MS fix ifcleanup.exe just in case there are multiple hidden unused drivers to be removed. Than opened Regedit at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\NDIS\IfTypes\1\IfUsedNetLuidIndices and change that value from hex:ffff... to hex:01 . Rebooted, and run the Tap-Windows driver install again. This time it was installed without a glitch, and a new Tap-Windows Adapter V9 appeared in Device Manager. I then opened earlier installed CyberGhost VPN, hit Connect, and within 1 min got connected via a remote VPN server. It works like a charm now!

Just to double check I then run a virtual machine, and access to internet was working normally from the VM via CyberGhost running on the host PC. There are no visible problems with any other previously installed network adapters & drivers thus far, so nothing seems to be affected at this point by the above Registry change except the Tap-Windows driver was installed properly. Seems like an easy fix, no need in any workarounds...
