Thank you for your bug report. This issue has already been fixed in the latest released version of PHP, which you can download at http://www.php.net/downloads.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-13 13:09:05] alvaro at demogracia dot com Thank you, I'll test it ASAP. In case someone wants to test the new installer but has fiddled with vbscript.dll and jscript.dll, here's a link that explains how to reset it to Windows Vista default status: http://blogs.msdn.com/heaths/archive/2007/05/31/windows-installer-errors-2738-and-2739-with-script-custom-actions.aspx It seems that Microsoft discourages re-registering these DLLs from an elevated console. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-08 04:30:18] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Can you retest the next snapshot release; I made some adjustments to hopefully help this out. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-28 15:33:03] [EMAIL PROTECTED] It's actually something different, more specific to Vista not liking custom actions written in VBScript unless you are running from an elevated console as you did. Other than re-writing the custom actions as managed c++, you can do one of two things - Re-register vbscript.dll or jscript.dll under an elevated console -or- - Run the installer from an elevated console. I'm going to look into re-writing the custom actions as managed C++ in the future. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-04 07:20:06] alvaro at demogracia dot com Description: ------------ I can't install any *.msi package newer that 2.5.3 under Windows Vista by double-clicking the file. Even though my user has admin rights, I need to run it from an elevated console. Installer doesn't warn about it. It starts as usual, prompts for options, asks for elevation and finally stops with this error message: "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2738." The chosen options do not seem to make any difference. It also happens with today's snapshot (2.5.6-dev 2008-01-04): http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.2-win32-installer-latest.msi I believe it's not a dupe of #43230 because that fixed the problem for my Windows XP box but not for my Vista box. As I said, opening an elevated console and running it for command line does work.
