vbscript failes to execute on a W2003 box

[Bradav]

Does anyone know what causes a vbscript to fail to execute. We get an error message that says it won't load. What permissions need to get set to enable vbscript to execute. thanks,

[Bradav]

the actual message is:"Loading your settings failed. (Access is denied).

Is "loading your settings failed" something you wrote? If so, you'll need to figure out what resource is being denied: registry reads, file i/o.
Need more detail.

No - it's a std message from vbs - and it happens each time we try and execute a script. I was the only one able to execute scripts and then we upgrade to w2003, and now I can't even execute the scripts.

Try creating a simple msgbox("HELLO WORLD") script and see if it lets you run it. If it does, than script code itself is having permission issues, not executing the script permissions.

Tried it and it still doesn't work. Are they any settings that you know of that can fix this in W2003?

Look at the permission set for wscript.exe.
Make sure execute privs are set for you.

If all else fails, use this tool:

Run the tool, execute your script then find "access denied" or "denied" anywhere in the results.
