Subject: TG2 Quickstart fails on Win32 if spaces present in path
To: TurboGears <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Just downloaded a new install og tg.devtools-1.9.7a3-py2.5.egg into a
new virtualenv on WinXP, using Py2.5.
The install went fine, but when trying to quickstart a new project, it
fails with the following traceback:
<SNIP>

ValueError: The executable 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\kevinh\\Desktop
\\mine_id\\tg2env\\Scripts\\python.exe' contains a space, and in order
to handle this issue you must have the win32api module installed
I have verified that quickstarting works fine when the path of the new
quickstarted project directory does not contain any spaces, but this
seems to me to be a pretty big problem. Is there a way to easily
install pywin32 into a virtualenv? (no egg is available AFAIK for
pywin32...it uses a binary installer)
Is there a way to fix this, or are Windows users now stuck with not
being able to use virtualenv? I don't recall this being an issue
before, and I've created a number of projects using previous TG2
versions over the last several months. Has something changed in
Pastescript maybe?
