Hi,

I've got a Windows 2003 enterprise test server that has developed a problem installing most MSI's, when I run them they report the error

"The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2738"

I've tried a couple of MSI's that work on another servers ok , but they will not work on this one.
It seems that you can't reinstall the MSI component on a 2003 server, so how do I fix this. I was advised to install the 3.0 msi but this still has the same problem.


Any ideas. I don't really want to reload this server again.

I ended up fixing it,

I had to install WSH again and you can do this by downloading it from
