I'd like to confirm that this error occurs on 32-bit Vista systems in
Dutch locale, also.

Running the installer from a batch as suggested above successfully
executed the installation, however.

I can confirm this bug in the installer!

My system is Norwegian, and uses , as decimal point, and when i changed
regional options to english as "tamasmatrai" pointed out, installer
finished successfully.

Solution!!!

I had the same problem on Windows XP. I read the event viewer and found
detailed info:

"Product: PHP 5.2.6 -- Error 1720. There is a problem with this Windows
Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could
not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.  Custom
action configIIS4 script error -2146828275, Microsoft VBScript
futásidejû hiba: Típuseltérés: '[string: "5.1"]' Line 179, Column 5,  "

The key was this: "Típuseltérés: '[string: "5.1"]' Line 179, Column 5, 
." 'Típuseltérés' is a Hungarian term, which means 'data type error'.
So, '5.1' is not a number in a vb script which is run by the
installation. 

Decimal separator was ',' (comma) on my system and when I changed it to
'.' (dot), then installation was completed successfully! 

So try this! It is a bug and this was the first time I tried to install
PHP. After such a problem I will think 10000 times if I use PHP. :o I am
a programmer and if I would leave such a bug in my application, I would
be sacked from my workplace without any doubt.

XP Pro SP3:

Custom action configIIS4 script error -2146828235, Microsoft VBScript
runtime error: File not found Line 182, Column 9

I also cannot do the RunAS trick, as i am on SP3.

Does anyone actually use php on iis4 (nt? 98?) nowadays?
