I am new to the forum and just tried to create my first report. Following is the comment I got:
Generating report to 'G:\GenoPro Reports\KLAFTENEGGER - KOPIE_12272014_a\'
Cloning document KLAFTENEGGER - KOPIE_12272014_a...
Opening configuration file Config.xml for skin 'English Narrative Report'...

Error in Config.xml at line 42: Unable to initialize the script engine VBScript (1 : 8007007E).

Please give me some assistance/suggestions on this.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

The error suggests a problem with the installation of Microsoft's Windows Script Host on your system.  If you are running XP I suggest you download Windows Script 5.7 http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8247 and install that to try and correct the issue.   The search facility on this forum is very poor, especially when attempting to search for multiple words. For more background on this issue try searching for the single term 8007007E , i.e. the error number.

You should also install the latest version of the Narrative Report skin from this forum.

Hello legendary master and thanks for the reply.
I am running Windows 7, home edition, on this PC.  I did not find a VB Script update for this OS.
By marcelk - Friday, January 2, 2015
I also downloaded the latest version of the Narrative report skin (12/17/2014)

If you have ever had McaFee Anti Virius security on your PC then the VBscript engine may be disabled since sometimes it does not uninstall correctly.  If this is the case then try the McAfee Cleanup utility http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

Otherwise there may be some other Registry corruption and you should re-register the vbscript components.  

Try running the following from a command prompt running as administrator

regsvr32 VBScript

 have not used McAfee on this pc.
I did run the following cmd in ADMIN mode and got a positive response.regsvr32 VBScript
There is still an error on line 52?

Ok, attached is a simple script to check that VBScript is working on your PC. Download it and double click to run it.

It just has the line

MsgBox "VBScript is working!", 64

and when run produces

If this works then I am very puzzled as to why GenoPro.exe cannot start the VBScript engine.

With this test I am getting:
Can't find script engine "VBScript" for script "C:\users\marcel\desktop\test.vbs"

Also, my PC is a 64 bit system.
By genome - Monday, January 5, 2015
or a 64 bit system http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/cant-find-script-engine-vbscript-for-script/960f24d1-bf92-4cec-b73e-520a04891073 suggests:

Start > type cmd.exe in the "Search programs and files" box, then, under "Programs," right-click cmd.exe > Run as administrator

Then, at the command prompt, type the following pressing "Enter" after each line:

cd "%systemroot%\SysWow64"

regsvr32 jscript.dll

regsvr32 vbscript.dll

Then close cmd.exe and restart the computer.


But it is often reported that this does not fix it.

So check the registry key HKCR\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32, using regedit.exe.

mine points to C:\Windows\System32\vbscript.dll but I guess on 64 bit it should be C:\Windows\SysWow64\vbscript.dll

My Win7 64 bit shows the same location and file name ie C:\Windows\system32\vbscript.dll.

Not sure what this means. To get to the above I opened Regedit and pasted B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8 into the search box
By marcelk - Monday, January 5, 2015
I went to that site and did all that.
did sfc /scannow in admin cmd under windows dir
There were no errors
Still getting this error, when trying to generate report:

so does that registry key have the correct value on your system?  i.e. c:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll  

Does the file c:\windows\system32\vbscript.dll exist?
