Then as admin

 

regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\jscript.dll

regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll

 

Light runs now.

This error occurs when light is running validation. Validation is
achieved by merging in the darice.cub merge module and executing the ICE
sequence contained in it. Most of the custom actions are implemented as
DLLs but some are implemented in VBScript. Error 2738 has the following
description:

 

Could not access VBScript runtime for custom action [CUSTOMACTIONNAME].

 

This suggests there's a problem with the VBScript runtime on your
machine. If you're running McAfee or Norton Anti-Virus, you may find
that it's being overzealous in blocking VBScripts - there may be an
option in your AV package to turn this off.

 

For more on troubleshooting see
http://blogs.msdn.com/heaths/archive/2007/05/31/windows-installer-errors
-2738-and-2739-with-script-custom-actions.aspx and
http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2007/06/07/3151752.aspx. Bob
Arnson also documents which ICEs cause the problem in a comment at
http://www.joyofsetup.com/2007/06/07/when-vbscript-and-jscript-custom-ac
tions-are-even-more-evil/.

 

Note that script custom actions are generally not recommended; the
Windows Installer team should probably reimplement these ICEs in native
DLLs.

Has anybody been able to use light.exe on Vista? I keep running into
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail

id=105970&atid=642714> &aid=1843121&group_id=105970&atid=642714.

 

light.exe : error LGHT0217 : An unexpected external UI message was

received: The installer has encountered an unexpected

 error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this

package. The error code is 2738.

 

Tested with build 3621.

 

Thx
