inf2cat signability test failed

Hi All,
I have developed a dll for advanced property page(same as osr nothing sample) and integrated with my toaster sample using visual studio 2012. When compiled, the driver is compiled properly, but the dll signing gives inf2cat signability test failed error.
I tried compiling by disabling run inf2cat, but the driver load failed. below is the inx file

[Version]
signature=“$WINDOWS NT$”
Class=DummyDevs
ClassGuid={0c833dae-8679-11d3-b19b-0060b0efd4aa}
Provider=%Mfg%

[SourceDisksNames]
1=%DiskId1%

[SourceDisksFiles]
Dummy.sys = 1
Dummyproppage.dll = 1

[ClassInstall32]
Addreg=DummyDeviceReg

[DummyDeviceReg]
HKR,%ClassName%
HKR,Icon,-6
HKR,EnumPropPages32,“Dummyproppage.dll,DummyPropPageProvider”

[DestinationDirs]
DriverDir = 12
DLLdir = 11

[Manufacturer]
%Mfg%=ABC

[ABC]
%DeviceDesc% = DummyDriverInstall, Root\DummyDrv

[DummyDriverInstall]
CopyFiles=DriverDir,DLLdir

[DriverDir]
Dummy.sys

[DLLdir]
Dummyproppage.dll

Did you even consider using “chkinf” to validate your INF file? You are
referring to 4 different strings here, but you do not have a [Strings]
section to provide the expansion.

Hi Tim,
I have the string section but i haven’t posted it. The string section is as below.
Mfg = “ABC, Inc.”
DeviceDesc = “Dummy Device Test Driver”
DiskId = “Install disk (1)”
ClassName = “DummyHardware”

You don?t have a CatalogFile line in your [Version] section. That?s where Inf2Cat gets the name of the file it?s going to create.
