Attempting to debug script: MS PDM creation failed

[mmo]

I was trying to debug a script that doesn't behave as expected, but when click the Debug - button all I get is:

----------------------------
[68746974]      Stack recording threshold set to 3 frames
[68747038]      Default Directory is C:\Users\moserm\Desktop

[68747118]      Download the Microsoft Script Debugger to install it.
[68747119]      Failed to initialize VBScript engine
----------------------------

What is going wrong here?

This is using EA 10 (Corp. Edition) on Windows 7 Enterprise.

As far as I understand you would like to debug a simple script.
  
Try this sample , it was taken from this form, tested and works fine to me:  
  
The selected package name should be displayed in a message box

Code: [Select]

sub main
      FuncName()
end sub
Function FuncName()
      ' Repository object was set before invoking the script!
      ' Get the currently selected element in the tree to work on
      dim thePackage
      set thePackage = Repository.GetTreeSelectedPackage()
      
      if not thePackage is nothing then
      MsgBox(thePackage.Name)
            FuncName= thePackage.Name
            
      end if
End Function
main

Hi Tehila,
thanks for responding!

Sorry, the point was not, to obtain some output (I know how to do that and - in fact - I got my script working in the meantime using misc. debugging output statements - see my other thread).

The point was, that the real debug-functionality (you know, supporting single-stepping, inspecting variables, etc.) that is supposed to work for EA scripts, obviously does not, because some library or whatever seems missing. That would, however, be handy when debugging more complex scripts.

Regards and thanks,
M.
