I am getting a lot of issues installing OMSA on this host. The error:
An error occured while attempting to execute a Visual Basic Script. Please confirm that Visual Basic files are installed correctly.
This has led me to read many different posts about settings in IE and the File Types as per:
1.18 In the Prerequisite Checker screen, I get the following message. What can I do to resolve this problem? An error occurred while attempting to execute a Visual Basic Script. Please confirm that Visual Basic files are installed correctly.
This error occurs when the Prerequisite Checker accesses the Systems Management script, vbstest.vbs(a Visual Basic script), to verify the installation environment, and the script fails. The possible causes are:
- Incorrect Internet Explorer Security Settings.
Ensure that Tools → Internet Options → Security → Custom level… → Scripting → Active scriptingis set to Enable.
Ensure that Tools → Internet Options → Security → Custom level… → Scripting → Scripting of Java applets is set to Enable.
- Windows Scripting Host (WSH) has disabled the running of VBS scripts. The WSH is installed by default during the operating system installation. On Windows 2003, WSH can be configured to prevent the running of scripts with a .VBS extension.
- Right-click My Computer on the desktop and click Open → Tools → Folder Options… → File Types.
- Look for the VBS file extension and ensure that File Types is set to VBScript Script File.
- If not, click Change and choose Microsoft Windows Based Script Host as the application that gets enabled to run the script.
WSH is the wrong version, corrupted, or not installed. Download WSH from msdn.microsoft.com.
I have gone through the steps listed but the issue remains. Does any one have advice on the next steps to take to resolve this?
