How do I run a VBScript in 32-bit mode on a 64-bit machine?

问题

I have a text file that ends with .vbs that I have written the following in:

Set Conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Conn.Provider = "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0"
Conn.Properties("Data Source") = "C:\dummy.accdb"
Conn.Properties("Jet OLEDB:Database Password") = "pass"
Conn.Open
Conn.Close
Set Conn = Nothing

When I execute this on a Windows 32-bit machine it runs and ends without any notion (expected).
When I execute this on a Windows 64-bit machine it gets the error

Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.

But it is installed. I think the root of the problem is that the provider is a 32-bit provider, as far as I know it doesn't exist as 64-bit.

If I run the VBScript through IIS on my 64-bit machine (as a ASP file) I can select that it should run in 32-bit mode. It can then find the provider.

How can I make it find the provider on Windows 64-bit? Can I tell CScript (which executes the .vbs text file) to run in 32-bit mode somehow?

回答1:

follow http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896456

To start a 32-bit command prompt, follow these steps:

* Click Start, click Run, type %windir%\SysWoW64\cmd.exe, and then click OK.

Then type

cscript vbscriptfile.vbs

' C:\Windows\System32\WScript.exe = WScript.exe
Dim ScriptHost : ScriptHost = Mid(WScript.FullName, InStrRev(WScript.FullName, "\") + 1, Len(WScript.FullName))

Dim oWs : Set oWs = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Dim oProcEnv : Set oProcEnv = oWs.Environment("Process")

' Am I running 64-bit version of WScript.exe/Cscript.exe? So, call script again in x86 script host and then exit.
If InStr(LCase(WScript.FullName), LCase(oProcEnv("windir") & "\System32\")) And oProcEnv("PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE") = "AMD64" Then
    ' rebuild arguments
    If Not WScript.Arguments.Count = 0 Then
        Dim sArg, Arg
        sArg = ""
        For Each Arg In Wscript.Arguments
              sArg = sArg & " " & """" & Arg & """"
        Next
    End If

    Dim sCmd : sCmd = """" &  oProcEnv("windir") & "\SysWOW64\" & ScriptHost & """" & " """ & WScript.ScriptFullName & """" & sArg
    WScript.Echo "Call " & sCmd
    oWs.Run sCmd
    WScript.Quit
End If

回答3:

If you have control over running the cscript executable then run the X:\windows\syswow64\cscript.exe version which is the 32bit implementation.

回答4:

We can force vbscript always run with 32 bit mode by changing "system32" to "sysWOW64" in default value of key "Computer\HKLM\SOFTWARE]\Classes\VBSFile\Shell\Open\Command"

Place the above code at the beginning of your script and the subsequent code will run in 32bit mode with access to the 32bit ODBC drivers. Source.

Alternate method to run 32-bit scripts on 64-bit machine: %windir%\syswow64\cscript.exe vbscriptfile.vbs

回答7:

In the launcher script you can force it, it permits to keep the same script and same launcher for both architecture

:: For 32 bits architecture, this line is sufficent (32bits is the only cscript available)
set CSCRIPT="cscript.exe"
:: Detect windows 64bits and use the expected cscript (SysWOW64 contains 32bits executable)
if exist "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cscript.exe" set CSCRIPT="C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cscript.exe"
%CSCRIPT% yourscript.vbs
