Updater error- won't complete

[Trident]

I'm getting an error when I run the updater with the new PPCGeeks_OEM.rar file included. It seems to finish and then says that there is an error and it can't copy the file and rolls back all changes.
I just updated the other files and am manually downloading the PPCGeeks file, but I wanted you guys to know.
[In the past, this has been caused by trying to update while the Kitchen was running or something like that, but that wasn't the case this time.]

I wish I could replicate that. You're the 2nd person I've heard has that problem. Unfortunately, until I can replicate it (I've seen it in the past, but not recently), I can't fix it. I'll see what can be done to generate a useful log.

Not a big deal. It's still happening, but like I said, I was able to download everything manually.
Even after running the updater, it still shows that PPCGeeks_OEM.rar has an available update, but I know it doesn't.
I'm letting it try to download to see what happens. I've got the file saved in another directory in case the Updater does something to the file that's in the kitchen now.

Working on the issue now.

I need someone who repeatedly gets failures using Updater to assist w/ debugging. Find me in the chat room. It will also help if you run Updater with -log option and post the contents here.

I still get the error (I think I mentioned this), so it's duplicatable by me- if you tell me how to run Updater to get a log file, I'd be happy to try it and show you the log.

Updater.exe -log

You can modify the shortcut in the startmenu, make a new one, or run it manually from a command prompt (it's in c:\program files\ppckitchen.org\buildos\updater)

Without wanting to sound like a retard- I can't do any of these.
When I try to add " -log" to the current shortcut, Windows won't let me.
When I try to run from the run command or a command line, I keep getting told that c:\program is not a valid program or that it can't be found.
Same thing when I try to create a new desktop shortcut or alter the current desktop shortcut.
Very strange.
I'll try again tomorrow.
