Installing MS Script Debugger?

[Paul Waldo]

Hi all,

I have tried to install Microsoft Script Debugger with no luck. I was
wondering if anyone else has been successful.

I downloaded the debugger (scr56en.exe) from Microsoft's site. I then used
the CXO installer to install it. The installer rebooted Windows and reported
no errors. Now when I restart IE, the debugger should be on the View menu,
but it isn't :-(

If the install log will help, I'll email it separately. TIA!

scr56en.exe is the scripting host.

Your looking for scd10en.exe

Thanks for the reply, Tom. That suggestion got me farther, but I'm quite sure
why. The link you sent says that this is the debugger for NT:
Supported Operating Systems: Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows XP
I though that wine emulated Win98...

Well, I installed the file, and it showed me some dialogs, culminating in one
that said that the debugger was installed. The IE menu for starting the
debugger is available, but nothing happens when it is selected. When I try
to run from the command line:

wine /home/pwaldo/.cxoffice/dotwine/dosdevices/c\:/Program\ Files/Microsoft\
Script\ Debugger/msscrdbg.exe

I get a dialog that says "Microsoft Script Debugger failed to initialize.
Please reinstall the debugger components and try again."

Any ideas? Thanks.

Perhaps you need to run IE as NT/ME/XP for the debugger to work?

No, Wine has an NT style architecture internally. By default we
currently tell applications which ask that they're running on Win98
because they tend to be less demanding then. It's configurable on a
per-app basis.

However as software that requires 2K/XP is increasingly common this
policy is starting to cause issues with mismatches in components and
what they expect. A long term technical goal of ours at CodeWeavers is
to run in WinXP mode by default but there's still lots of work left to
do. Once it's done probably WineHQ will follow shortly after.
