[issue34528] Windows installer: Failed to run untrusted mode.
New submission from Cabu : At work, we are using Windows 7 Enterprise. I have local admin rights on a separate account. When trying to install Python 3.6.3 or 3.7.0 for amd64, the installer stop after a couple of seconds without any message/popup. But, I have found the attched log in a temp folder. It seems that the installer try to run a copy of itself in a folder where even the local admin can't run executables by company policy. I didn't find any issue with the same error code in the tracker. -- components: Installation files: Setup_20180828111438_Failed.txt messages: 324235 nosy: Cabu, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Windows installer: Failed to run untrusted mode. type: crash versions: Python 3.6, Python 3.7 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file47768/Setup_20180828111438_Failed.txt ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue34528> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue34528] Windows installer: Failed to run untrusted mode.
Cabu added the comment: Knowing the IT department, I will receive a nice letter saying that they don't care because it is not an approved software and that I could use Java for my development needs. I wanted to develop some interesting tools in python that could be used by a lot of colleagues to force their hand in approving it in a quicker way, else it will be like they have done for php and in 5 years they will finnally approve the use of python 2.7 (without pip to install non approved libraries) as a standard tool :( If I want the latest and greatest Python environment, it would be easier for me to copy a working installation from my computer and update the registry and environment variables like the installer should do. For that purpose, do you have somewhere the list of registry keys and environment variables to insert/update? In the meantime I have found a 'workaround': Install Anaconda. I will not have python 3.7, but 3.6.3 is better than nothing :/ But still a pity to install 600MB of cruft for the 30MB of Python goodies :) -- ___ Python tracker <https://bugs.python.org/issue34528> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
