Release Notes

first apply Windows 2003 SP1 or higher before upgrading to OpenManage
5.2. If your version of OpenManage is 4.2 or lower, upgrade to
OpenManage 4.3 first, then apply SP1 and then upgrade to OpenManage
5.2. Alternately, if you do not wish to retain OpenManage settings,
you can uninstall OpenManage, apply the Windows service pack and then
install this version of OpenManage.
* In the Prerequisite Checker screen, you may get the following
message, "An error occurred while attempting to execute a Visual
Basic Script. Please confirm that Visual Basic files are installed
correctly." This error occurs when the Prerequisite Checker calls
the Dell OpenManage "vbstest.vbs" (a Visual Basic [VB]) script to
verify the installation environment and fails for some reason.
The possible causes are:
1. Incorrect Internet Explorer "Security" settings.
Ensure that "Active Scripting" is enabled by clicking "Tools" ->
"Internet Options" -> "Security" -> "Custom Level" ->
"Scripting" -> "Active Scripting" -> "Enable"
Ensure that "Scripting of Java Applets" is enabled by
Clicking "Tools" -> "Internet Options" -> "Security" ->
"Custom Level" -> "Scripting" -> "Scripting of Java Applets" ->
"Enable."
2. Windows Scripting Host (WSH) has disabled the running of VB
scripts.
By default, WSH is installed during operating system
installation. WSH can be configured to prevent scripts
with a ".VBS" extension from being run. On the Desktop,
right-click "My Computer", then go to "Open" -> "Tools" ->
"Folder Options" -> "File Types." Look for the extension
"VBS" and verify that "File Types" is set to "VBScript
Script File". If not, click "Change" and choose "Microsoft
Windows Based Script Host" as the application that runs
the script.
3. WSH is the wrong version, is corrupted, or is not installed.
By default, WSH is installed during operating system
installation. To download the current WSH version, go to:
" http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms950396.aspx "
4. The Scrrun.dll file may not be registered. Register it manually
by running the following command:
"regsvr32 Scrrun.dll"
* If you burn your own CD, be aware of the following requirement:
MSI requires all installers to specify the "MEDIAPACKAGEPATH"
property if the MSI file does not reside on the root of the CD.
You must ensure that the DVD/CD layout remains the same when burning
your own CD or DVD.
