For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. The current version is 5.3.8. Windows downloads are on http://windows.php.net/download/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-26 21:34:54] Chris_Walsh at Prodigy dot net Did I commit a typo in my email address?? should be "dot net" not "dot bet" of course. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-08-26 21:23:34] Chris_Walsh at Prodigy dot bet Description: ------------ I have seen other bugs categorized as being in the "Windows Installer" package but I don't have that option in the dropdown menu so I have put it as "unknown/other" I am trying to install 5.2.17 because, according to http://windows.php.net/download/ it is what I need to use with Apache. (I don't see a later version for Windows that looks usable) The "PHP version" drop-down implies I should be using something more recent that 5.2.x but the Windows download page doesn't give me the options to use something more current. I want to install php-5.2.17-Win32-VC6-x86.msi (as opposed to the "nts" version) because it has the option for Apache 2.2 in the Web Server Setup options. If I need to use a more recent version, then the info at http://windows.php.net/download/ is misleading at best: "Which version do I choose? If you are using PHP with Apache 1 or Apache2 from apache.org you need to use the VC6 versions of PHP" Here's my situation: I get most of the way through the installation and I get an error pop-up saying "the installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2738" I have done a great deal of searching on this and have found many references recommending doing some registry changes. This page in particular seems to explain well what to do: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/heaths/archive/2007/05/31/windows-installer-errors-2738-and-2739-with-script-custom-actions.aspx I have done what it recommends yet I still get the error. The keys mentioned are not in HKCU, which I checked using regedit. VBScript, B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8 is in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE This dll is the one that causes the 2738 error, apparently. JScript, F414C260-6AC0-11CF-B6D1-00AA00BBBB58 is HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, which I mention because it is referenced in the link I cite above. I have tried deleting and re-registering the dlls ("regsvr32 vbscript.dll) and that didn't help. I have hit a dead end. Expected result: ---------------- Would like to be able to get php installed on my Vista PC. Actual result: -------------- Error ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55514&edit=1
