Notice: Undefined variable: app in C:\wamp\www\ja_edenite\tmp\install_4e59e7c47b62b\install\script.virtuemart.php on line 219

Fixed the typo, but it shows another problem (the reason we didnt noticed the typo). Oh find that error. thanks
I'm getting the same with the same file, downloaded this morning.
Fatal error: Call to a member function getApplication() on a non-object in /home/brandche/public_html/tmp/install_4e5ad33ab6b2d/install/script.virtuemart.php on line 219
Open the downloaded file (com_virtuemart.1.9.8e.zip), open file install->script.virtuemart.php.
Change line 219 to
$app = JFactory::getApplication();
Save, update file in the archive and try to install again.
Worked for me, though I got a bunch of warnings after installation and had to do shop Configuration all over again.
Yes, this and some other small glitches are fixed here
