Failed to marshal script action.

Installer failure on Win XP SP3, clean install. From the logfile:

I have checked that oleaut32.dll exists, and is registered with regsvr32.exe.

Hi Arthur,

Does this behavior manifest on several Windows XP SP3 machines or is it just the one? Most likely that file's registry signature may have become corrupted.

All the best,
Mihai

Hi, it looks like it's only one machine. I'll reinstall the OS. Thanks.
