    What link are you trying to install from?
    Is it the Web Installer or the full download of Visual COBOL 2010?

    Try the Web Installer, if you haven't already as this should recognize Visual Studio 2010 if it is already installed.

    Are you installing to a physical computer or a Virtual Machine?

    Thanks for reply, I've tried to install from the Web Installer and the full download from:

    Visual Studio 2010 executable file (126MB)
    visualcobol.microfocus.com/.../downloadweb.php

    Visual Studio 2010 web installer (1.7MB) -
    visualcobol.microfocus.com/.../downloadweb.php

    In a physical Computer, and get the same error, do you know other way?

    Hi Santo,

    Does Visual Studio 2010 install and start OK before you try installing Visual COBOL?

    Hi Santo,

    Could you please check if the environment variable %PATH% has the /bin diretory of Visual Studio 2010?

    If you have this diretory in env. var. %PATH%, I suggest you reinstall the Visual Studio 2010 on your machine, or try to repair it. Some register entry could be missing...

    Regards

    Hi, I've reinstall the Visual Studio 2010 on my machine, and manually added the /bin directory to the environment variable %PATH%, and still have the problem,
    Is there something else that I can do?
    Thanks

    Santo,

    Using REGEDIT.EXE, can you supply an export of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\DevDiv\\VS\\Servicing\\10.0

    Can you paste the contents of the .REG file that is produced?

    Thanks,

    Sure, here it is:

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\DevDiv\\VS\\Servicing\\10.0]
    "SP"=dword:00000000
    "SPIndex"=dword:00000000

    "InstallerType"="MSI"
    "SP"=dword:00000000
    "SPIndex"=dword:00000000
    "SPName"="RTM"
    "Version"="30319.01.25"

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\DevDiv\\VS\\Servicing\\10.0\\vstscore\\3082]
    "Install"=dword:00000001

    "SPIndex"=dword:00000000
    "SPName"="RTM"
    "Version"="30319.01.25"

    What do you suggest?
    Thanks!!!!

    The problem is that there is a codepage mismatch in the checks (3082 instead of 1034). Can you edit the reg file to just contain the following, and then import it.

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\DevDiv\\VS\\Servicing\\10.0\\vstscore\\1034]
    "Install"=dword:00000001
    "InstallerType"="MSI"
    "SP"=dword:00000000
    "SPIndex"=dword:00000000
    "SPName"="RTM"
    "Version"="30319.01.25"


    This should allow you to install, and you can delete the registry key after installation if you like. I will raise a bug report to this effect.

    Thanks,
    D
