Does anyone know of anyway I can carry out some checks to get to the bottom
of the Error Code 1 issue when code signing.

Maybe capture the packet data and check its getting out to the timeserver or
any thing else I could try?

Remove the timestamp server to see if it is a timestamp server issue. If it
still fails, it was not the server ;-)

Hi Friedrich

I've removed the time server still same problem. In Janes Learning Sb7 her
example for Code Signing the installer doesnt show the spc and pvk fields as
populated.

Now when I got my cert file I only got what was installed in Internet
Explorer which exports as a PFX file. I didnt get the spc or pvk files. I
cant find anything to download from the comodo site when I log in so have
used this tool http://www.tech-pro.net/export-to-pvk-spc.html to create the
pvk and spc files.

Anyway just ran through this link
https://support.comodo.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=1089
and everything has worked this time round so maybe this chaps utility
http://www.drh-consultancy.demon.co.uk/ doesnt work the same way which is
what I used first time round.

Anyway got it codesigning now!<g>

You don't need the .pvk and .spc files. If you are using signtool.exe, then
the PFX is all you need.
