Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : Fixing VB Script for MSI Custom Action

I have created a post-install VBS script to reconfigure a server. The VBS script works fine when run on the command line.

But when I add the VBS as a custom action to the install project, the resulting MSI throws errors like: "Could not register event source" and "Could not report the event"

Furthermore, the regular Wscript calls such as 'Wscript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")' causes a Microsoft VBScript runtime error: Object required:'WScript'. WScript.Sleep also generates an error.

NOTE: Debugger says the error is occuring in msiexec.exe.

Any clues as to what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
Paul
