Ok - couple of shots in the dark:

Does the DB User account you are using have write/update access to the
target DB Tables?

Under your Target Virtual Server Properties, Home Directory Tab:
         My normal setup has
                 Execute Permissions: Scripts Only
                 Application Protection: Medium (Pooled)

The last thing I would do is write a very simple script that tries to do
what the problem script is failing at. See if you can isolate further what
is going on. Maybe even create a new virtual service and see if that fails too.
