Fail to run script in the new version

I just install the 24x7 version 5 to my PC and try to run the VBscript inside the Sample Jobs folder. However, I got the following errors from the Job log and Output.

Job Log:

ERROR: An error occurred while executing automation script: null

Is that the trial verison do not allow to run any script?

Please, post the script you tried to run, so we can check which dependencies could be missing.

Here is the code copied from the sample code. FYI, I have excel installed in my PC.

Sub Main( )

' ********************************************************************************
' *
' * Excel Sample
' *

Dim objXL
Dim objXLchart
Dim intRotate

Set objXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objXL.Workbooks.Add
objXL.Cells(1,1).Value = 5
objXL.Cells(1,2).Value = 10
objXL.Cells(1,3).Value = 15
objXL.Range("A1:C1").Select

Set objXLchart = objXL.Charts.Add()
objXL.Visible = True
objXLchart.Type = -4100

For intRotate = 5 To 180 Step 5
objXLchart.Rotation = intRotate
Next

For intRotate = 175 To 0 Step -5
objXLchart.Rotation = intRotate
Next

objXL.application.Quit
End Sub

Do you have Microsoft Excel installed on that machine? If not, line Set objXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application") can cause the described error.

I have no problem running the script in version 4.4

For your information, I got the following error when I validate the script:
Line 0:null

What happens when you open that script and start running it in the debugger?

I got the following error:

An error occurred while debugging job script

8000ffff: passed end of stream in the marshalling layer

Please try the following:

Open command prompt
Navigate to the 24x7 home directory, let's say the directory name is c:\24x7
CD c:\24x7
CD install
register_vb24x7.bat

Please let us know if that helps.

I still receive the same error message after I performed the steps as suggested.

Please change the script, or create a new VBScript job to do something simple like

	Code:
	Sub Main MsgBox "Hello world" End Sub

Does this script give you an error?

I got the same error. is it a bug?

There is likely something wrong with your setup, but I don't know yet what's wrong. That script runs fine on my test system.
Which exact version/build of 24x7 are you running? You can see it in the Help/About box

I am using version 5.0 Build375 and JVM version is 1.6.0_29-b11

Please enable the tracing option in Tools/options menu, Log tab, Trace Enabled. - tick the checkbox and click OK. Rerun the script and then email the content of debug.log (find it in the scheduler home) directory) to our support email. Please also paste a link tho this message thread.

Thanks.
