We have a DTS package that is scheduled to run on a nightly basis. This package has suddenly stopped working and is returning the following error:

ActiveX Scripting Transform 'DTSTransformation__1' was not able to initialize the script execution engine

I have scanned the Microsoft Knoweledgebase and have found nothing describing the same error.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Can you run VBScript elsewhere on that server? Try creating a text file containing something like
MsgBox "Scripting works!!"
and save it as test.vbs and try running it.

Good question, one of the things I didn't think to check. And to answer your question, yes it does work. I actually tried re-registering the axscphst.dll (DTS ActiveX script host) and I still get the same error message.
