PHP 4.0 Bug #10125 Updated: installation fails - php doesn't run

ID: 10125 Updated by: phildriscoll Reported By: ctek@ctek.ch Status: Closed Bug Type: IIS related Assigned To: Comments: The error is (surprise surprise) that MSCOMCTL.OCX which should be registered on your system, isn't. The installer program (and many many others) use this DLL to provide widgets like progress bars. It may be that the file exists on your system but is just not correctly registered. (The following is true for NT4 - things may be different on W2K) There should be a file called REGSVR32.EXE on your WinNT\System32 directory and also a file called MSCOMCTL.OCX in the same directory. If not, you will have to get them, maybe from your NT CD or perhaps by downloading them from somewhere on the Microsoft site. Once the files are there, from the command line type: REGSVR32 MSCOMCTL.OCX The installer should then work. A VB wizard somewhere in the world is modifying the installer to do this automatically so that the small percentage of users this affects will avoid the inconvenience.

THis error is normally caused by mscomctl.ocx not being registered properly. Your second error is somthing unrelated to PHP but looks like some problem with northwind examples or somthing like that..
