Solution!!!

I had the same problem on Windows XP. I read the event viewer and found
detailed info:

"Product: PHP 5.2.6 -- Error 1720. There is a problem with this Windows
Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could
not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.  Custom
action configIIS4 script error -2146828275, Microsoft VBScript
futásidejû hiba: Típuseltérés: '[string: "5.1"]' Line 179, Column 5,  "

The key was this: "Típuseltérés: '[string: "5.1"]' Line 179, Column 5, 
." 'Típuseltérés' is a Hungarian term, which means 'data type error'.
So, '5.1' is not a number in a vb script which is run by the
installation. 

Decimal separator was ',' (comma) on my system and when I changed it to
'.' (dot), then installation was completed successfully! 

So try this! It is a bug and this was the first time I tried to install
PHP. After such a problem I will think 10000 times if I use PHP. :o I am
a programmer and if I would leave such a bug in my application, I would
be sacked from my workplace without any doubt.

XP Pro SP3:

Custom action configIIS4 script error -2146828235, Microsoft VBScript
runtime error: File not found Line 182, Column 9

I also cannot do the RunAS trick, as i am on SP3.

Does anyone actually use php on iis4 (nt? 98?) nowadays?

installer feature suggestion: add a check to see if VBscript is a
registered and running service, and break off the install if it is not
detected. This should fix everyone's problems on Vista, Windows Server
2008, as well as XP installs where people decided to turn off any
service they do not use themselves.

You'd never believe it, but just going to c:\windows\system32 and
running regsvr32 vbscript.dll fixed the MSI problem. Wow, go figure.

I've having the same problem here and after running msiexec with
logging options on, it seems that it fails because it "Could not access
VBScript runtime for custom action".

Very frustrating bug, especially since you can't, by default, run MSI
packages with administrator rights.

This is most likely a bug with the actual MSI package or packaging
application.
