FullXML Warning To complete installation, you must install VBScript runtime version 5.6.

Found this zombie-late thread answer over at http://dev.fullxml.com/forums which should cure dickdutch.com‘s recent affliction with said warning.

The error is caused by a permissions issue with some folders inside the wwwroot folder. It has been a couple of years since I set mine up, but I do remember it took some time before I got it right. It seems like I had to allow write permissions to the db directory for I_USR.

This fixed two problems, one the “You must install…” problem and also fixed access issue where no account was allowed to login. Thanks

I also had this problem a number of times and it has to do with permissions.

With the new backup module the problem is easily fixed.
Just delete data.xml and rename data.xml.tmp to data.xml and the message has gone.

So – it’s officially a permissions deal :. bumping it upline

I also had the same error messages (which are created by way at Functions.asp:435. You can display detailed error messages if you put

Response.Write(e.number & “, ” & e.description & “, ” & sFileName);

to e.g. line 435.).
So I gave the permissions, but still had some (a bit different) error messages. I found this topic, so I deleted data.xml, which caused a third type of error message to be shown. Then I also had to remove sessions.xml. This solved the problem finally.

Need help fixing Warning : To complete installation, you must install VBScript runtime version 5.6

Website was moved from one host to another (forced move …boiught out) and this error message showed up on the home page.

I administer the site. I am not a techie. I need someone who can give me instructions to follow to find where to fix it.

Thanks

@Sharon
Do you know how to check the permissions of a directory/folder using your ftp program?
You might want to ask your new hosts to change the permissions on your db folder to allow the webserver to write to it.
If your permissions are fine try this:
Rename data.xml to data.xml.old and rename data.xml.tmp to data.xml

Let us know how you go!

Hope you can help with another issue. The site went down last week. The host CGI finally got it back on line. HOWEVER, I cannot access the admin area. They say they cannot help. They say it is a script problem and told me to find an ASP person to help. I have no clue…what to do now and I have a ton of work to do on the site. Any ideas?

Thanks \
