BUG: Distribution of Microsoft Scripting Runtime Library Fails
This article was previously published under Q254166 SYMPTOMS
If your Microsoft Visual Basic application uses Microsoft Scripting Runtime Library (Scrrun.dll), the Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW) automatically picks up the dependency from Scrrun.dep, which points to http://activex.microsoft.com/controls/vb6/ScrRun.cab. However, this .cab file does not actually exist. Any component that tries to download the Scripting Runtime Library from this site will fail. The following error message may appear in your Code Download Error log for this problem:
Code Download Error: (hr = 800c0007) No data is available for the requested ......... ERR: INF Processing: Failed (80004004) processing: scrobj.dll . Cannot get primary/default language! LOG: URL Download Complete: hrStatus:0, hrOSB:80004004, hrResponseHdr:0, URL:(URL to your CAB File) CAUSE
There is a bug in the Scrrun.dep file that is included with Visual Basic. The Scripting Runtime Library is no longer available in the form of a .cab file. Instead, the Scripting Runtime Library is now available in the form of an .exe file that is located at: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0a8a18f6-249c-4a72-bfcf-fc6af26dc390&DisplayLang=en (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=01592C48-207D-4BE1-8A76-1C4099D7BBB9&displaylang=en) RESOLUTION
Microsoft Scripting Runtime must be installed through the use of a self-extracting .exe file. For versions of Scripting Runtime mentioned at the beginning of this article, the only way to distribute it is to use the complete self extracting .exe file located at the following locations:
Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition, and Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=01592C48-207D-4BE1-8A76-1C4099D7BBB9&displaylang=en (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=01592C48-207D-4BE1-8A76-1C4099D7BBB9&displaylang=en) Microsoft Windows 2000 and Microsoft Windows XPhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C717D943-7E4B-4622-86EB-95A22B832CAA&displaylang=en (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C717D943-7E4B-4622-86EB-95A22B832CAA&displaylang=en) STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
