Problems with all scripts im installing

Post by bozzy28 »

Hi all, I am running windows vist ultimate 32bit, using MediaMonkey Gold 2.5.5.998 and Beta 3.0.0.1089.

I have tried to install different scripts from Trixmoto, mainly Batch Art Finder 2.4, Browse By Art 4.9, Combine Albums 1.0 and a few others but whenever I try to start MediaMonkey I get the following error message.

Error hppened during script installation:

A script engine for the specified language can not be created, I even get this error in the basic Case Checker that is pre-installed in MM.

This is a copy from my Scripts.ini file. Hope someone can please help me.

Sounds like you need to reinstall the Windows Script Host from M$.

By the way, I don't think the Batch Art Finder will work on MM3! :-?

Ironically I'm now getting this error message after installing and uninstalling IE9 beta - anyone got any ideas how to fix this in vista?

i think you need to upgrade to the new mm 3.2.1304 version as you state you are using mm Beta 3.0.0.1089.

man that is so old even the scripting language has changed since that version i think 3 times.
also the database code has changed at least 3 times since that beta version.

so your only hope for scripts is to get the ones that are listed for mm 2 and use them on your mm 2 version.

as the newer mm 3 scripts won't work on that old version. 8)

I was actually hoping for some help fixing the problem, not being reassured that I had one :-?

i know trixmoto but only thing i can think of that might be a cause of it is the missing hidden character in the vbs file or the extra space in the vbs file.

both of which i have found will mess up the simple vbs files when i have pasted the files in to the text pad and saved them.

like if it adds a blank line at the top of the scripts text, when that is saved it sometimes in some scripts will stop the script from working.

or if when pasted in to the note pad the script code does not paste to the far left but leaves a blank space in front of every line. that too will stop some scripts from running.

maybe something like those is what is messing with the ie9 beta codes and making scripts not work. those are the only things i know to check because i can't make scripts i just copy and paste them which is how i found those two issues. 8)

No, it wasn't the script file, it's the Windows Script Host that was broken. It wasn't possible to fix, had to revert to an old restore point.

Thanks for posting this. Some of my MonkeyTunes users were reporting this error and every one of them had installed IE9. Microsoft just really can't get anything right the first time can it!!
