I was trying out the bootstrap script on WindowsXP with Python2.4 I used the command go-pylons.py --no-site-packages mydevenv
and had several problems with the ``after_install``: * ``join(home_dir, 'bin')`` is wrong on windows (``Scripts`` instead of ``bin`) , the docstring example in the original virtualenv.py for ``create_bootstrap_script`` is wrong for Windows changes: used bin_dir instead (conditional definition as in rest of virtualenv.py) {{{ if sys.platform == 'win32': lib_dir = join(home_dir, 'Lib') bin_dir = join(home_dir, 'Scripts') else: lib_dir = join(home_dir, 'lib', py_version) bin_dir = join(home_dir, 'bin') }}} * compiling extensions does not work in virtualenv, mingw does not find ``-lpython24`` - jinja: C extension for speedup is not installed - simplejson: C extension for speedup is not installed * Mercurial does not install correctly, cannot be compiled - checkout with hg of virtualenv fails - Solution: - do not install mercurial, use system ``hg`` instead, I have hg in standard python installation - in subprocess call replace local hg by system hg {{{ subprocess.call(['hg', 'clone', 'https://www.knowledgetap.com/hg/%s' % name, join(home_dir, name)]) }}} * after this it finishes without any further error messages I haven't done yet any testing or projects to see if everything in this virtual environment works correctly, but previously, without any bootstrap script, I didn't have any problems once the installation finished successfully.
