New submission from Stuart Axon : I'm not sure why this is happening, but os.uname() is failing on my computer in XP Home 32bit.

[issue4567] Registry key not set if unattended installation used
New submission from Stuart Axon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: If the msi is installed with /quiet it installs to the default location, but the registry key is not set, making it harder for other programs to find the installation. - in my case I had to make a batch file that installed it, then read the log file to find this information, which is less than ideal. -- components: Installation messages: 77155 nosy: stuaxo severity: normal status: open title: Registry key not set if unattended installation used type: behavior versions: Python 2.5.3 ___ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4567> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue4567] Registry key not set if unattended installation used
Stuart Axon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Sure, no problem - sorry for the lack of detail... The windows installer (tested on 2.5.2) normally puts some values in the windows registry at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\ (where is the python version). Including the important one for me: InstallPath. The bug is in the installer msi, and will need to be fixed in whatever generates it, ideally the installpath should always be set. In order to install python silently, run msiexec python-2.5.2.msi /quiet This will install python to the default path (c:\python) and the registry values won't be set. I believe their probably set in the interactive part of the installation. 2008/12/6 Martin v. Löwis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Martin v.

[issue5098] Environ doesn't escape spaces properly
New submission from Stuart Axon : os.environ doesn't escape spaces, but does backslashes and others In the windows python interpreter I echo'd the variable 'ProgramFiles', then in the commandprompt. >>> from os import environ >>> environ['ProgramFiles'] 'C:\\Program Files' >>> ^Z [C:\]echo %ProgramFiles% C:\Program Files This 'half' escapping seems odd, and is annoying when building file paths for instance, probably the space should also be escaped. -- components: None messages: 80765 nosy: stuaxo severity: normal status: open title: Environ doesn't escape spaces properly type: behavior versions: Python 2.5 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue5098> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
